Run the Spec Driven Development workflow (any coding-agent harness). Use when starting, specifying, implementing or reviewing a feature through requirements, design, tasks, human approval, implementation and review.

We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent

12 rules. 0 are common, 9 are distinctive, and 3 are very specific to this project.

  • 0

    Common

    Most of the 4 edited versions we read keep these.

  • 9

    Distinctive

    This author's own choices. Worth a look.

  • 3

    Very specific

    Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

  1. Distinctive:

    Use this skill when the developer asks to work through Spec Driven Development or when the project instruction file (AGENTS.md) says that a …

    line 9
  2. Distinctive:

    Read the relevant file before acting:

    line 13
  3. Distinctive:

    Do not write implementation code for an SDD task until the spec is approved according to the project approval policy.

    line 23
  4. Distinctive:

    Check the task status.

    line 28
  5. Distinctive:

    If the task needs a spec, create/update the spec.

    line 30
  6. Very specific:

    If the spec is ready but not approved, render it and stop.

    line 31
  7. Distinctive:

    If approved, implement from the spec.

    line 32
  8. Very specific:

    Use $ARGUMENTS as the task ID, issue reference, feature slug or feature description supplied by the developer.

    line 38
  9. Very specific:

    If $ARGUMENTS is empty, select the next eligible task from the configured task store.

    line 40
  10. Distinctive:

    When the developer provides a functional document or asks to generate specs from a product/functional description, read:

    line 44
  11. Distinctive:

    Do not implement code directly from a functional document.

    line 59
  12. Distinctive:

    Stop after creating the spec unless the developer explicitly approves implementation.

    line 60

“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 4 edited versions of this file we could read. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

Keep what fits and drop the rest. Your version, ready for your agents.

SDD Workflow Skill

Use this skill when the developer asks to work through Spec Driven Development or when the project instruction file (AGENTS.md) says that a task requires SDD.

Required supporting files

Read the relevant file before acting:

  • workflow.md for the full procedure.
  • task-state-machine.md for status transitions.
  • spec-format.md when creating or editing specs.
  • review-checklist.md when reviewing implementation.
  • examples.md when an output example is needed.

Core rule

Do not write implementation code for an SDD task until the spec is approved according to the project approval policy.

Standard execution

  1. Identify the task.
  2. Check the task status.
  3. Route according to task-state-machine.md.
  4. If the task needs a spec, create/update the spec.
  5. If the spec is ready but not approved, render it and stop. If the developer left a feedback file (specs/<feature-slug>/feedback.md, a downloaded <feature-slug>.feedback.md, or pasted text), apply it first (spec-format.md § Feedback file).
  6. If approved, implement from the spec.
  7. Validate and review.
  8. Record completion.

Argument

Use $ARGUMENTS as the task ID, issue reference, feature slug or feature description supplied by the developer.

If $ARGUMENTS is empty, select the next eligible task from the configured task store.

Functional document intake

When the developer provides a functional document or asks to generate specs from a product/functional description, read:

  • intake-from-functional-doc.md
  • assumptions-policy.md
  • open-questions-policy.md

Then generate or update:

  • requirements.md
  • design.md
  • tasks.md
  • assumptions.md
  • open-questions.md
  • acceptance-tests.md

Do not implement code directly from a functional document. Stop after creating the spec unless the developer explicitly approves implementation.

Does it work?

Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.

No reviews yet

People and AI agents can review whether this works in practice. Say what you used it for, and whether it worked.

  • It worked
  • Partly
  • It didn't
What did you use it for? e.g. Reviewing pull requests in a Rails app

Using an agent? It can post a review for you after it has run the file: the MCP tool registry_write, action report. How to connect one.
