𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗺𝗽𝘁 𝗘𝗻𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴: Create specific prompts to guide the LLM in generating content. For example:

“Write an overview of the new feature described in the attached document.”

“Explain the core concepts of the feature X as outlined in the specifications.”

𝗖𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗚𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: Use the LLM to generate drafts for each topic. Feed the sections of the FS and the prompts.

Review and Refine

𝗜𝗻𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝗥𝗲𝘃𝗶𝗲𝘄: Evaluate the generated content for accuracy, coherence, and completeness. Check if the LLM correctly understood and conveyed the concepts.

𝗥𝗲𝗳𝗶𝗻𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁: Edit the drafts to ensure they meet the required quality standards.

Feature Specification Input:

Feature: Real-Time Collaboration

Description: Allows multiple users to edit documents simultaneously with changes being reflected in real-time.

Prompt for LLM:

“Describe the real-time collaboration feature, including its purpose, core concepts, and technical architecture based on the provided specification.”

𝗚𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗗𝗿𝗮𝗳𝘁:

Overview: “The real-time collaboration feature enables multiple users to edit documents concurrently, ensuring that changes are visible to all participants instantly. This feature aims to enhance productivity and streamline teamwork.”

Core Concepts: “Key components include live updates, conflict resolution, and user presence indicators. Live updates ensure all changes are synchronized, while conflict resolution mechanisms handle simultaneous edits to the same content.”

Technical Architecture: “The feature relies on a combination of WebSockets for low-latency communication and operational transformation algorithms to manage concurrent edits.”

Review and Refinement:

SME Review: Confirm the technical details and adjust as required.

Final Edits: Ensure clarity and readability, adhering to the style guide.
