Extracting requirements

What You'll Build

Need to understand all the requirements hidden in a codebase? This technique shows how to use LLMs to compile comprehensive specifications from repository analysis for immediate development use.

In either of these sessions, we can ask the llm to reverse engineer the repo into a specifictation:

can you compile our findings into a comprehensive, 
developer-ready specification? Include all relevant 
requirements, architecture choices, data handling 
details, error handling strategies, and a testing 
plan so a developer can immediately begin implementation.

That cost 50 cents.
