What problem does it solve?

This Skill solves the synchronization gap between evolving project specifications and the static context files used by coding agents, ensuring your AI assistant always references the most current project plan.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Automated Context Refresh: Automatically updates the managed section of your agent instruction files (like CLAUDE.md or AGENTS.md) to point to the latest project plan.
  • Configurable Delimiters: Uses custom markers to safely manage specific blocks of text without overwriting your manual instructions.
  • Use Case: When you update a feature specification in your specs directory, this tool ensures your coding agent immediately recognizes the new plan path without you having to manually edit your system prompt files.

Quick Start

Use the speckit-agent-context-update skill to refresh the managed context section with the latest plan path.

FAQPage Schema
How do I sync project specifications with coding agent instruction files?

You can sync project specifications with coding agent instruction files by parsing configuration markers to automatically insert and replace plan references in files like CLAUDE.md or AGENTS.md. This ensures your context files reflect the latest paths.

What is the best way to update CLAUDE.md with the latest Spec Kit plan path?

The best way to update CLAUDE.md with the latest Spec Kit plan path is to use configurable delimiters that safely manage specific text blocks. This automated replacement prevents overwriting your manual instructions.

Do I need a specific directory structure to automate context updates for my AI coding agent?

Yes, you need a valid Spec Kit project structure with a defined .specify/ directory and associated configuration files to automate context updates for your AI coding agent.

How does automated context refresh handle manual instructions in agent configuration files?

Automated context refresh uses custom markers to target only the managed section of files like .github/copilot-instructions.md, ensuring your manual instructions remain untouched while updating the plan path block.

Why does my coding agent reference outdated project plans after I update my specs directory?

Your coding agent references outdated project plans because static context files do not automatically refresh. Synchronizing the managed section of your agent instruction files ensures the AI recognizes the new plan path immediately.
