Specification-driven development enforces a spec-first approach for feature implementation, managing the lifecycle from ideation to a merged pull request through defined phases with human-in-the-loop approval gates.

Automate your development workflow by orchestrating the full lifecycle from initial idea to PR creation, integrating specification, planning, TDD implementation, drift checking, and constitutional review into a single automated process.

Yes, you can enforce strict test-driven development cycles. The implementation phase is actively guided through TDD practices to ensure tests are written and validated before the final code is accepted.

Yes, the workflow includes human-in-the-loop gates. Manual approval is required during specification, planning, and constitutional review phases to ensure adherence to development best practices before PR creation.

The best way to ensure compliance is by integrating constitutional review gates and automated validation checks, verifying that the implemented feature adheres strictly to established development principles before merging.

Drift checking is needed during the implementation phase to verify that the evolving codebase remains aligned with the approved specification and initial planning documents throughout the development lifecycle.
