When should I use this skill?

Use it at the very beginning of a project or when starting a complex new feature to ensure you have a solid plan before writing code.

What is included in the generated SPEC.md file?

The document includes project goals, user personas, in-scope/out-of-scope features, technical decisions with rationale, constraints, trade-offs, and identified risks.

What is the Interview Spec skill?

It is a specialized Claude Code capability that uses an iterative interview process to help you clarify project requirements and document them in a structured SPEC.md file.

How does the interview process work?

The skill asks 3-4 targeted questions at a time, digging into user needs, technical architecture, constraints, and trade-offs until a clear project scope is defined.

Transforms vague project ideas into precise, actionable technical specifications through structured AI-driven interviews.

Interview Spec is a specialized Claude Code skill designed to bridge the gap between initial concepts and production-ready requirements. By initiating an iterative, deep-dive interview process, it probes for critical details like user pain points, technical trade-offs, and project constraints that are often overlooked in the early stages of development. Once the requirements are crystallized through expert questioning, the skill automatically generates a comprehensive SPEC.md file, serving as a single source of truth for the development lifecycle and ensuring every technical decision is documented with its underlying rationale.
