Official Verified developer tools Safety 5/5

elite-rfc-writer

Write decision-oriented engineering RFCs with strict template enforcement. Use when the user asks for an RFC, architecture decision proposal, or structured decision document that must follow the exact headings: Zusammenfassung, Motivation, Ziele, Nicht-Ziele, Vorschlag, Anhang.

Why use this skill?

Standardize your engineering architecture decisions with the elite-rfc-writer. Mandatory templates and strict intake for high-quality technical RFCs.

What This Skill Does

The elite-rfc-writer skill is a specialized OpenClaw agent tool designed to transform abstract technical requirements into structured, decision-ready engineering RFCs (Request for Comments). By enforcing a rigid, mandatory documentation standard, this skill removes ambiguity from architecture planning. It requires the agent to systematically collect five key input categories—Problem, Stakeholders, Constraints, Alternatives, and Risks—before drafting a single line of text. This ensures that every generated document is backed by data, analysis, and a clear understanding of trade-offs.

Installation

To integrate this tool into your OpenClaw environment, execute the following command in your terminal: clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/moep90/elite-rfc-writer-safe

Use Cases

Architecture Migration: Planning a shift from a monolithic database to microservices.
Vendor Selection: Evaluating different cloud providers or API gateways based on strict constraints.
Internal Tooling: Defining the roadmap and requirements for internal developer platform components.
Security Overhauls: Proposing changes to authentication flow or sensitive data handling where risk assessment is paramount.

Example Prompts

"I need to draft an RFC for transitioning our authentication system to OIDC. Here are the constraints: we must maintain session parity during rollout and avoid vendor lock-in."
"Please initiate an RFC process for implementing a new rate-limiting strategy. I have identified the following stakeholders: Security, Backend, and SRE teams."
"We are considering an architecture change to our event bus. I have a list of three alternatives and the current technical risks documented in this notepad; can you help me structure the formal RFC?"

Tips & Limitations

Strict Adherence: The skill will refuse to draft an RFC if the intake process is not completed. Do not try to bypass this; the guardrails are designed to prevent half-baked technical decisions.
Focus on Facts: This skill ignores marketing fluff. Use quantitative data and objective metrics when defining your goals and success criteria.
Assumptions: Always explicitly list your assumptions in the Anhang section. If a decision is based on an educated guess rather than hard data, stating it clearly is mandatory for professional technical transparency.
