spec-kit

name	spec-kit
description	Run GitHub's Spec-Driven Development (SDD) workflow via the `specify` CLI — install spec-kit, initialize a project for one of 30+ AI coding agents (Claude Code, Copilot, Gemini, Cursor, Codex, Qwen, opencode, Kiro, etc.), and drive the constitution → specify → plan → tasks → implement command pipeline. Use when the user wants to bootstrap a Spec-Driven Development project, install `specify-cli`, generate executable specs before code, or invoke the `/speckit.*` slash commands (`/speckit.constitution`, `/speckit.specify`, `/speckit.plan`, `/speckit.tasks`, `/speckit.implement`, `/speckit.clarify`, `/speckit.analyze`, `/speckit.checklist`). Triggers on: spec-kit, speckit, specify, specify init, spec-driven, spec driven development, SDD, /speckit, executable spec.

compatibility	Cross-platform spec-first workflow installer and router for Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, Gemini CLI, Codex CLI, Cursor CLI, opencode, Qwen, Kiro, and 20+ additional integrations supported by `specify`. Routes broader spec-first orchestration to `ooo`, planning-packet routing to `bmad`, and artifact approval to `plannotator`.

spec-kit — Spec-Driven Development via specify

GitHub's spec-kit inverts the usual flow: specifications become executable and directly drive implementation. This skill is the routing-first wrapper around the upstream specify CLI — it installs the tool, bootstraps a project for a chosen AI agent, and walks the five-step SDD command pipeline.

When to use this skill

• The user asks to install spec-kit, specify-cli, or "GitHub spec kit"
• The user wants to start a project with a Spec-Driven Development workflow
• The user types or asks about /speckit.constitution, /speckit.specify, /speckit.plan, /speckit.tasks, /speckit.implement, /speckit.clarify, /speckit.analyze, or /speckit.checklist
• The user wants to share an executable spec across Claude Code, Copilot, Gemini, Cursor, Codex, opencode, Qwen, Kiro, or another supported agent
• The user wants to discover community spec-kit extensions or presets (specify extension search, specify preset search)

When not to use this skill

• The user wants a vendor-neutral packet-first planning router that classifies the next BMAD artifact → use bmad
• The user needs a spec-first control loop with immutable seed and drift-aware execution independent of GitHub spec-kit → use ooo
• The user wants visual review/approval of an existing plan or diff → use plannotator
• The user wants pre-planning concept framing (problem, audience, positioning) before any spec exists → use bmad-idea
