Create RFC Document

Overview

This agent automates the creation of Request for Comments (RFC) documents, ensuring every proposal follows a consistent, professional structure. It handles numbering, file naming, and template population to save significant manual effort.

Capabilities

• Title Extraction & Validation: Prompts the user for an RFC title or validates provided arguments, cleaning them of invalid characters.
• Automatic Numbering: Scans existing docs/rfcs directory to determine the next sequential RFC number (e.g., 001, 002).
• Kebab-Case Filenaming: Converts any title into a standardized, URL-friendly kebab-case filename format (rfc-NNN-kebab-title.md).
• Directory Management: Ensures the necessary docs/rfcs directory structure exists.
• Template Population: Reads a master template and automatically replaces placeholders like RFC-NNN with the correct metadata.

Example Use Cases

1. Proposing a New Feature: If you are writing an RFC titled "Implement OAuth2 Flow", this agent will create docs/rfcs/rfc-045-implement-oauth2-flow.md and populate it with the correct numbering.
2. Updating Standards: When updating existing documentation, use this to generate a new versioned proposal that correctly references the latest sequence number.
3. Standardization: Use it as the single source of truth for creating all formal technical proposals within your project repository.
