openspec-sdd

What problem does it solve?

This Skill solves the common pain point of AI generating incorrect or misaligned code due to vague, unvalidated requirements, which leads to wasted development time, rework, and stakeholder misalignment.

Core Features & Use Cases

• 6-Stage Spec-Driven Workflow: Combines OpenSpec, SDD, and TDD into an end-to-end process from requirement intake to final archiving, ensuring full alignment between AI, developers, and stakeholders.
• Verifiable Acceptance Criteria: Uses Gherkin (GIVEN/WHEN/THEN) format to define testable requirements, eliminating ambiguity in what needs to be built.
• Pre-Built Templates: Includes ready-to-use templates for entity specs, API specs, and scheduled task specs to standardize documentation and reduce repetitive work.
• Use Case: For example, when your team receives a vague request for a new user points redemption feature, use this Skill to first draft a clear proposal, define acceptance scenarios, create a technical design, break down into atomic tasks, get stakeholder approval, then execute and archive all specs for future reference.

Quick Start

Use the openspec-sdd skill to create a complete specification and implementation plan for the new order tracking feature I need to launch next month.
