spec-first:design

To generate technical design specifications from functional requirements, map each requirement to system-level design elements like module boundaries and interface contracts. This ensures traceability by linking design decisions directly back to the originating functional requirements.

Spec-first design is an approach that automates generating technical design specifications by mapping functional requirements to system elements. It enforces design simplicity and ensures traceability by linking specifications directly to the originating requirements.

Define API interface contracts and data models by mapping functional requirements to system-level design elements. This process outlines service interactions and data structures while ensuring the design aligns with the initial requirements and architectural principles.

Yes, you can synchronize generated design specifications with agent documentation files. The system supports automated context synchronization with agent documentation files like CLAUDE.md and AGENTS.md to maintain consistency.

Prevent speculative architectural layers by enforcing design simplicity during the specification generation process. This ensures the design only includes elements immediately required for the current delivery, avoiding unnecessary complexity.

Yes, this approach supports consistency and rollback strategies for data modeling. The generated design specifications explicitly include these strategies alongside module boundaries and interface contracts mapped from functional requirements.
