What is the primary purpose of the spec-create skill?

It acts as a 'work item manufacturer' that creates detailed, structured specifications that the Baldrick autonomous agent can later consume and implement.

What is 'right-sizing' in the context of this skill?

Right-sizing ensures a specification is small enough to be completed in one Baldrick iteration (one context window), such as adding a single UI component or a database migration.

Where are the generated specifications saved?

All specifications are automatically saved to the 'specs/' directory in kebab-case Markdown format.

Does this skill implement the code changes?

No, the spec-create skill is strictly for planning and documentation. It creates the blueprint so an agent or developer can implement it later.

Productivity & Workflow

Generates structured, right-sized feature specifications for the Baldrick autonomous agent system to ensure actionable development workflows.

About

The Baldrick Spec Creator is a specialized skill designed to transform high-level feature ideas into granular, machine-readable specifications. It guides users through a quick clarification process using lettered options to define scope and priority before generating a standardized Markdown document. Following the 'Spec Format v1' standard, it produces files containing YAML metadata, Gherkin BDD scenarios, and verifiable 'Done When' checklists, ensuring that every task is perfectly sized for an autonomous agent to complete in a single iteration.

Key Features

Automatic generation of Spec Format v1 compliant Markdown files
0 GitHub stars
Gherkin-style BDD scenario generation for behavior-driven development
Standardized YAML frontmatter for priority, risk, and dependency tracking
Interactive clarification prompts with lettered options for rapid response
Built-in story sizing logic to ensure tasks fit within a single agent iteration

Use Cases

Breaking down complex product requirements into small, actionable agent tasks
Creating verifiable test-driven development specs with Gherkin scenarios
Standardizing feature documentation for autonomous agent consumption
