Spec-Kit Workflow

About

The Spec-Kit skill for Claude Code integrates the GitHub Spec-Kit methodology into your AI-assisted development process. It guides you through a rigorous 7-phase workflow—Constitution, Specify, Clarify, Plan, Tasks, Analyze, and Implement—ensuring that every feature is grounded in governing principles and well-defined technical strategies. By utilizing the specify-cli and a dedicated .specify/ directory, this skill helps maintain alignment between requirements and execution, reducing technical debt and architectural drift through specification-driven development.
