spec

Codebase-grounded feature specifications are produced through an interview-led elicitation process that references real modules, patterns, and domain terms discovered in your project. This generates a versioned SpecKit specification artifact ready for integration.

The best way to extract testable requirements from a codebase interview is to use a guided elicitation flow that aligns questions with concrete code patterns. This yields a SpecKit-compatible specification artifact with concrete references to your modules.

You do not need CodeGraph to generate SpecKit specifications. While CodeGraph provides codebase grounding for the interview, the system falls back to traditional grep and glob discovery methods when CodeGraph is unavailable, ensuring robust spec generation across repos.

Yes, you can use an interview-led approach to create versioned spec artifacts for any codebase. The specification generation process applies to repositories with or without CodeGraph, utilizing fallback discovery support to ensure continuous spec management.

The limitation of using traditional code search for codebase-grounded requirement extraction is that it relies on basic grep and glob fallback discovery rather than deep structural analysis. This fallback activates when CodeGraph is unavailable, providing robust but less graph-aware spec generation.
