What is a sphinx-needs project?

It is a Sphinx-based documentation project that uses the sphinx-needs extension to manage requirements, specifications, and other data-driven items.

What are the Copilot agents installed by this skill?

It installs specialized markdown files in your .github/ directory that provide instructions for GitHub Copilot to handle tasks like change analysis, traceability, and authoring.

Can this skill overwrite my existing settings?

The skill checks for an existing pharaoh.toml and provides a diff, asking for your explicit confirmation before overwriting or merging any files.

What is the difference between advisory and enforcing modes?

Advisory mode suggests the recommended workflow without blocking actions, while enforcing mode checks and requires prerequisites to be met before allowing specific tasks.

Do I need an existing configuration to use this skill?

Yes, your workspace should contain either a ubproject.toml or a conf.py file that loads sphinx_needs so the skill can detect your project structure.
