2. Overview (1-2 paragraphs)

   • What this RFC proposes
   • Why it matters now
   • Expected outcome

3. Background & Context

   • Current state of the system
   • Historical context if relevant
   • Glossary of terms
   • Links to related RFCs or documentation

4. Problem Statement

   • Evidence of the problem (metrics, incidents, user feedback)
   • Impact of not solving (cost, risk, opportunity loss)

5. Goals & Non-Goals

   • Explicit scope boundaries
   • What success looks like
   • What this RFC deliberately does NOT address

7. Options Analysis For each option (minimum 2):

   ### Option N: [Name]
   
   **Description**: [What this option entails]
   
   **Advantages**:
   - [Pro 1]
   - [Pro 2]
   
   **Disadvantages**:
   - [Con 1]
   - [Con 2]
   
   **Evaluation Against Criteria**:
   | Criterion | Score/Rating | Notes |
   |-----------|--------------|-------|
   | ...       | ...          | ...   |
   
   **Effort Estimate**: [Complexity and resources required]
   
   **Risk Assessment**: [Potential risks and mitigations]
   

8. Recommendation

   • Recommended option with justification
   • How it scores against criteria
   • Acknowledged trade-offs being accepted

9. Technical Design (for approved RFCs)

Status Definitions

Evaluation Criteria Framework

Use these standard criteria categories (adapt as needed):

Technical Criteria

• Performance: Latency, throughput, resource usage
• Scalability: Horizontal/vertical scaling, bottlenecks
• Reliability: Fault tolerance, recovery, availability
• Security: Attack surface, data protection, compliance
• Maintainability: Code complexity, debugging, updates

Operational Criteria

• Operability: Monitoring, alerting, incident response
• Deployment: CI/CD integration, rollback capability
• Documentation: Learning curve, knowledge transfer

Business Criteria

• Time to Implement: Development effort, dependencies
• Cost: Infrastructure, licensing, maintenance
• Risk: Technical risk, organizational risk

Neutral Language Guidelines

Avoid

• "Obviously the best choice"
• "Everyone agrees that..."
• "This is clearly superior"
• "The only sensible option"
• Dismissing alternatives as "not worth considering"

Use Instead

• "Based on criteria X, Option A scores higher because..."
• "Option B requires consideration of trade-off Y"
• "The data suggests that..."
• "Stakeholder input indicates a preference for..."
• "Given constraints A and B, Option C is recommended"

Quality Checklist

Before marking RFC as REVIEW:

• All required sections are complete
• At least 2 alternatives are analyzed
• Evaluation criteria are explicit and measurable
• Trade-offs are documented for each option
• Language is objective and evidence-based
• Technical diagrams are included where helpful
• Open questions are clearly listed
• Implementation plan is realistic

Integration with CTO Architect Workflow

When the CTO Architect agent creates technical specifications:

1. Use this skill for any significant technical decision
2. Follow the template in references/rfc-template.md
3. Ensure neutral evaluation of all options
4. Link to related PRDs when applicable
5. Request review from appropriate technical stakeholders

File Naming Convention

• RFC documents: RFC-XXXX-<short-description>.md
• Example: RFC-0042-api-gateway-selection.md
