Question 1

What is Colign and what problem does it solve?

Accepted Answer

Colign is a platform designed for software teams to collaboratively write, align on, and implement software specifications with AI assistance. It addresses the critical 'upstream collaboration' gap, ensuring shared understanding of 'what to build' before any code is written, which is often overlooked by individual AI coding tools.

Question 2

How does Colign leverage AI in the specification process?

Accepted Answer

Colign utilizes AI for structured spec generation directly from prompts within the platform. It also integrates with external AI tools like Claude Code via its MCP Server, enabling AI to read/write specs, break down proposals into tasks, and assist in code implementation based on finalized specifications.

Question 3

What is Spec-Driven Development (SDD) and how does Colign support it?

Accepted Answer

Spec-Driven Development (SDD) is an approach that prioritizes clear, well-defined specifications to prevent bottlenecks when AI can generate code rapidly. Colign supports SDD with a two-layer architecture: 'Project Memory' for strategic context and 'Structured Proposals' (Problem, Scope, Approach, Acceptance Criteria) for tactical changes, ensuring precise definitions for humans and AI.

Question 4

Can Colign integrate with my existing AI development tools?

Accepted Answer

Yes, Colign is built for integration. It exposes an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server, allowing various AI tools like Claude Code, Cursor, and others to seamlessly read and write specs. Colign also provides a dedicated Claude Code plugin with workflow skills for enhanced integration.

Question 5

What are Colign's core features for team collaboration?

Accepted Answer

Colign facilitates robust team collaboration through real-time co-editing of specifications, structured proposals for consistent communication, and a clear workflow (Draft → Design → Review → Ready) that guides the alignment process and ensures all team members are on the same page throughout the project lifecycle.
