Create or revise the canonical AL technical specification through AL Spec Agent, preserving approved architecture and human approval. ALDC workflow (Copilot prompt al-spec.create); invoke explicitly.

The file

We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent

3 rules. About 0 are common, 2 are distinctive, and 1 is very specific to this project.

  • ≈0

    Common · estimate

    Many files like this have a rule of this kind.

  • ≈2

    Distinctive · estimate

    This author's own choices. Worth a look.

  • 1

    Very specific

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

  • Common
  • Distinctive
  • Very specific
  1. Very specific:

    Use al-spec-agent with the requirement, complexity and scope in $ARGUMENTS.

    line 40
  2. Distinctive:

    Read and follow the canonical specification contract in full before authoring.

    line 41
  3. Distinctive:

    Do not change the root requirement name to the unit slug or write an aggregate spec.

    line 52

≈ “Common” is an estimate: at least 1 in 5 of the 350,495 skill files we read have a rule of the same kind, not the same words. “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.

Claude Code adapter — generated by scripts/sync-plugin-support.js, do not edit. Canonical source: prompts/al-spec.create.prompt.md (sha256 7cc5c35aa91ee34704ef684f4b840071059242c2db3f8263acdba6b7f6d1ee2c). This workflow was written for @workspace use … in GitHub Copilot Chat. Apply these harness mappings and treat everything else as binding:

Copilot surface in the contractClaude Code equivalent
#runSubagent / runSubagent / agents:The Task tool with subagent_type: "aldc:<agent>"; one invocation carries everything inline (subagents are stateless)
#askQuestions / vscode/askQuestionsAskUserQuestion (main session only; a subagent returns its questions in its structured output)
handoffs: entries, and send: false on oneNo equivalent — the gate is yours to keep. In Copilot a handoff is a button the human clicks, and send: false additionally hands them the prompt to review before it is sent; the host supplies the approval. Claude Code delegates through the Task tool, with no click and no review step. So never auto-delegate: present your output, get explicit approval, and only then delegate or route to another role. The handoff's routing is carried by the plugin's role entry skills; its human gate is carried by this rule

The Claude guide supersedes older capability-availability examples, never role responsibilities or human gates.

AL specification entrypoint

Use al-spec-agent with the requirement, complexity and scope in $ARGUMENTS. Read and follow the canonical specification contract in full before authoring. This entrypoint does not define another specification workflow. Resolve the role link from this installed prompt's directory.

Pass the approved requirement/architecture, current spec path if revising, and any Architect-assigned scope. If this host cannot route to the named custom agent, read that same role contract in the current session and state the routing limit; do not claim another agent executed. Preserve the role's write scope and approval gate. For single-spec the output remains .claude/plans/{req_name}/{req_name}.spec.md. For multi-spec pass one assigned SPEC-ID, its exact output path from the approved architecture, architecture revision and required approved predecessor contracts. Do not change the root requirement name to the unit slug or write an aggregate spec. Follow approved authoring groups and preserve both dependency types. Return the assigned spec for current joint consistency review and human approval.

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.

Your trail

Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.

Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.

Now do this for your own.

Bring your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or skills. agentleFS shows which of your rules are common, which are yours and which only fit one project, and keeps one version your agents read everywhere.
