spec-workflow

Manage multi-module development by guiding the creation of explicit requirements, architecture documentation, and task plans. It structures work into requirements, design, tasks, and execution phases to clarify complex changes.

Structured task planning is needed for medium-to-large changes with unclear acceptance criteria or architecture-heavy requests. It ensures explicit documentation and task breakdown before implementation begins.

Write user stories and acceptance criteria using EARS style within the requirements phase. This approach defines explicit conditions for complex changes before technical design and task planning.

This targets medium-to-large changes requiring multi-module work and architecture documentation. Small changes with clear parameters do not need this explicit requirements and design planning process.

Document architecture and module boundaries during the design phase of the workflow. This phase encourages detailed documentation to support breaking down designs into specific, reviewable tasks.

No dependencies are required to use spec-workflow. It operates independently using included scripts and references to facilitate the structured development process.
