Feature Spec

Workflow

1. Find the next phase

Read specs/roadmap.md. The next phase is the first section whose items are all [ ]. Note its name to derive the branch and directory name.

2. Create the branch

git checkout -b phase-N-<kebab-name>

3. Interview the user — BEFORE writing any files

Use AskUserQuestion with exactly 3 questions in one call:

Do not write any files until the user has answered all three questions.

4. Read guidance files

Read specs/mission.md and specs/tech-stack.md before drafting.

5. Create the spec directory

Name: specs/YYYY-MM-DD-<feature-name>/ using today's date.

requirements.md

• Scope section: what is and is not included; field/data table if applicable
• Decisions section: choices made and why (draw from user answers)
• Context section: tone rules, stack pointers, existing patterns to follow

plan.md

• Numbered task groups appropriate to the feature (for example: Data → Components → Page & Route → Navigation → Tests)
• Each group has numbered sub-tasks; groups should be independently implementable

validation.md

• Automated: project test and typecheck commands pass; specific assertions required
• Manual: walkthrough, behaviour, edge cases
• Tone check if the feature has user-facing copy
• Definition of done

Constraints

• Respect the existing tech stack defined in specs/tech-stack.md — no new dependencies without user approval
• Follow existing conventions and patterns already established in the codebase
• Keep feature scope focused and independently shippable
