speckit-checklist

You create unit-test style checklists to validate requirements quality by running the Speckit Checklist against your feature specs, planning notes, or implementation tasks. It generates categorized, QA-oriented checklist items aligned to spec sections to catch ambiguity and gaps before implementation begins.

A unit-test checklist for requirements validation is a QA-oriented list of categorized items that evaluate requirements writing quality across completeness, clarity, consistency, measurability, and coverage. It helps authors and reviewers catch specification gaps during specification work.

To generate QA checklists from feature specs and planning notes, provide your requirements via the ARGUMENTS input. The tool loads context from your specifications and tailors categorized checklist items specifically to those spec sections and implementation tasks.

Yes, you can append new checklist items to existing files without losing history. The tool writes to speckit.checklist files organized by domain with incremental IDs, preserving your previous checklist entries while adding new validation items.

Yes, requirements validation works with vector-embedding-friendly requests. The tool specifically supports three-sentence requests designed for vector embedding compatibility, generating categorized checklist items that align directly with your specification sections.

Automated requirements quality checklists are limited to evaluating completeness, clarity, consistency, measurability, and coverage of written specifications. They generate QA-oriented validation items but do not execute actual code tests or verify technical implementation behavior.
