# spk-mission-types
Use this skill when the user asks which kind of mission to run or how mission
types differ.
## Workflow
1. Identify the requested work: software change, standalone planning,
documentation, research, or custom/team workflow.
2. Compare available mission types before creating new process.
3. Use the legacy `spec-kitty-mission-system` skill for detailed step-contract,
procedure, action-index, and template-resolution mechanics.
## Boundary
Mission types define workflow behavior. Skills explain how to operate that
behavior; they do not redefine the mission DAG.
## Built-In Types
- `software-dev`: default feature/change workflow with tasks and WP iteration.
- `research`: evidence-gathering workflow before or during product decisions.
- `plan`: planning-only workflow.
- `documentation`: documentation-oriented workflow.
