Can I use this skill with an existing set of documents?

Yes, the init command can scan your existing directory or a single file and automatically organize them into a structured spec manifest.

How do I get started with the Spec Writing skill?

Run the /spec-writing init command in your project directory to create a SPECFILES.md manifest and starter specification files.

What is the purpose of the SPECFILES.md file?

It acts as a central manifest that defines your project's document order, universal robustness checks, and domain-specific terminology rules.

How does the skill handle technical terminology?

It supports both dedicated glossaries and progressive introduction models, ensuring every term is defined clearly before its first usage in the document reading order.

Does it check for requirement violations?

Yes, if your manifest identifies a requirements file, the skill verifies that all proposed design changes are consistent with those truth sources before proceeding.

学習とドキュメンテーション

Enforces precision and cross-document consistency in software specification documents through manifest-driven guidance.

The Spec Writing Specialist skill transforms Claude into a rigorous technical architect, ensuring that software specifications remain accurate, consistent, and logically ordered. By utilizing a SPECFILES.md manifest, the skill tracks document dependencies, enforces terminology discipline, and performs requirements-to-design verification. It is particularly useful for complex projects where small changes in one module can have cascading effects on data models, workflows, or compliance requirements across multiple files.
