Define with Skills

Skills dramatically improve the Define phase.

Instead of asking:

Create customer management.

We ask:

Analyze customer management.

Identify:
- Domain
- Subdomain
- Models
- Services
- State
- APIs
- UI Components

Follow SKILLS.md.

The AI becomes an architectural analyst before becoming an implementer.

This is a critical mindset shift.
