Drops the SKILL.md into .claude/skills/project-specification.md. Works with Claude Code, Cursor, and any agent that loads SKILL.md files from .claude/skills/.

Delegation

For detailed specification writing workflows, this skill delegates to spec-kit:spec-writing as the canonical implementation. Use this skill for quick specification needs; use spec-kit for comprehensive specification documents.

When To Use

  • After brainstorming phase completes
  • Have project brief but need detailed requirements
  • Need testable acceptance criteria for implementation
  • Planning validation and testing strategy
  • Translating business requirements into technical specs
  • Defining scope boundaries and out-of-scope items

When NOT To Use

  • Still exploring problem space (use Skill(attune:project-brainstorming) instead)
  • Already have detailed specification (use Skill(attune:project-planning) instead)
  • Refining existing implementation (use code review skills)
  • Making strategic decisions (use Skill(attune:war-room) for complex choices)

Integration

With spec-kit:

  • Delegates to Skill(spec-kit:spec-writing) for methodology
  • Uses spec-kit templates and validation
  • Enables clarification workflow

Without spec-kit:

  • Standalone specification framework
  • Requirement templates
  • Acceptance criteria patterns

Post-Completion: Workflow Continuation (REQUIRED)

Automatic Trigger: After Quality Checks pass and docs/specification.md is saved, MUST auto-invoke the next phase.

When continuation is invoked:

  1. Verify docs/specification.md exists and is non-empty
  2. Display checkpoint message to user:
    Specification complete. Saved to docs/specification.md.
Proceeding to planning phase...
  3. Invoke next phase:
    Skill(attune:project-planning)

Bypass Conditions (ONLY skip continuation if ANY true):

  • --standalone flag was provided by the user
  • docs/specification.md does not exist or is empty (phase failed)
  • User explicitly requests to stop after specification

Do NOT prompt the user for confirmation — this is a lightweight checkpoint, not an interactive gate. The user can always interrupt if needed.
