description	Generates a structured Workable Spec JSON to guide a Developer Worker.

Spec Generator Instructions

Extract key technical details from the issue and organize them according to the following strict JSON schema.

Critical Rules:

1. Codebase Verification: Rely on file paths and locations found during your codebase exploration. Ensure all files mentioned in files_to_modify and test_file actually exist in the repository. Do not make up file paths.

[!IMPORTANT] The output MUST strictly adhere to this schema. Deviations (like putting objects inside arrays instead of strings) will break the downstream automated code generation pipeline.

The final workable_spec object must conform strictly to this JSON Schema specification. Every field listed below is strictly required and must be populated:
