# Workflow Detect Requirements Skill
Extract explicit and implicit requirements from user request.
## Purpose
- Parse user request for explicit requirements
- Infer implicit requirements (edge cases, validation, etc.)
- Identify non-functional requirements
- Document for tracking
## Requirement Categories
1. **Functional** - What the code should do
2. **Non-functional** - Performance, security, UX
3. **Edge cases** - Error handling, boundaries
4. **Integration** - How it connects to existing code
## Actions
1. **Parse request** - Extract explicit requirements
2. **Analyze context** - Infer implicit requirements
3. **Check for gaps** - Identify missing information
4. **Document** - Write to WORKING_MEMORY
