# Request Tracking Skill

## Trigger

- Keywords: request document, request, progress tracking, status, acceptance criteria, tech spec

## When NOT to Use

- Create new request document (use /create-request)
- Write tech spec (use /tech-spec)
- Code development (use feature-dev)

## Document Hierarchy

```
requests/        Request documents (scope + acceptance)
    ↓ references
planning/        Tech specs (implementation details)
    ↓ references
adr/             Decision records (rationale)
    ↓ references
architecture/    Architecture docs (system design)
```

## File Location

```
docs/features/{feature}/
├── requests/           # Active request documents
│   └── archived/       # Completed
├── planning/           # Tech specs
├── adr/                # Decision records
└── architecture/       # Architecture docs
```

## Naming Convention

**Format**: `YYYY-MM-DD-kebab-case-title.md`

## Status & Priority

| Status   | Description        |
| -------- | ------------------ |
| Pending  | Not started        |
| In Dev   | In progress        |
| Approved | Spec confirmed     |

| Priority | Timeline       |
| -------- | -------------- |
| P0       | Immediate      |
| P1       | This week      |
| P2       | This iteration |

## Output

```markdown
## Request Status
| Request | Status | Priority | Updated |
|---------|--------|----------|---------|
| ...     | ...    | ...      | ...     |
```

## Verification

- Request document includes: background, requirements, acceptance criteria
- File naming follows convention
- Correctly linked to tech spec
