# Prompt: Extract Feature List from a Mod

**When to use**: A mod has no author-provided feature list. Use this to produce a reviewable feature list before running [combine-mods.md](combine-mods.md) or [split-mod.md](split-mod.md).

**Output**: A bulleted feature list for human review. Edit it before feeding it into the next step — the AI's extraction is a starting point, not ground truth.

**Workflow context**: [Chapter 11 — Feature extraction and splitting](../handbook/11_COMBINING_MODS_WORKFLOW.md#ai-prompt-templates-feature-extraction-and-feature-splitting)

---

## Prerequisites

- The mod folder exists and is accessible (you can browse its `/qml/` structure)

**QML Linter** (optional but recommended): Have a QML linter installed (see [QML Linter setup in 01_BASICS.md](../handbook/01_BASICS.md#qml-linter))

## How to Use This Prompt

1. Copy the entire prompt block below
2. Paste into Claude/Copilot
3. Provide the baseline (tag or file tree) and the mod files/changes

## Prompt (copy and use as-is)

```
## Instructions for AI Assistant

### Configuration

QML_LINTER_COMMAND = ""  # Set to your linter command (see QML_LINTER_SETUP.md for options)
# Example: "qml-linter ./qml/ --output-format compact"
# If left empty, linter validation will be skipped.

### Behavior

When analyzing mod source code:

- **Note any QML code quality issues** you observe in the source
- If QML_LINTER_COMMAND is set:
  - **If you have CLI access**: Run the linter directly on proposed features and report any issues
  - **If no CLI access**: Ask user to run the linter command and paste results
- **Flag potential conflicts** that linters will catch (syntax) or require manual review (same file modified by multiple features)
- **Offer iterative validation**: "Paste your linter output and I can help analyze any issues found"

You are an expert Traktor QML analyst. I will provide either (A) a consolidated list of file changes (mod vs baseline) or (B) the mod file tree plus the baseline file tree. Your task: produce a concise, reviewable feature list for human verification.

Output format: bulleted feature list + short human summary:

- Features: for each feature provide an ID, title, one-line description, primary files, UI elements, key handlers/events, global side-effects, and a rough risk (low/med/high).
- Notes: list any ambiguous areas and recommended sample files to inspect.

Baseline info: include baseline tag used (e.g., traktor-kontrol-qml-files tag 4.4.1). Return a concise bulleted list and a 6-line human summary.
```

**Next step**: Review and edit the output, then pass it to [split-mod.md](split-mod.md) or directly to [combine-mods.md](combine-mods.md).
