speckit-plan

Automate implementation planning by applying a plan template to generate design artifacts like research notes and data models. This workflow reduces manual effort by driving phase-driven artifact generation within structured project directories.

The implementation planning workflow generates research notes, data models, and contracts. These design artifacts are produced by applying an IMPL_PLAN template to ensure consistency and coverage across your project.

Yes, the speckit-plan workflow requires a Spec-Kit project structure that includes .specify directories and feature specs. This structure provides the necessary context to drive phase-driven artifact generation and pre-execution checks.

Extension hooks support pre- and post-execution phases during artifact generation with safe-guarded execution. They allow you to extend the planning workflow while maintaining deterministic pre-execution checks before generating design artifacts.

Yes, you can generate research notes and data models from feature specs by running the workflow from the project root. The system applies the IMPL_PLAN template to produce research.md, data-model.md, and contracts artifacts.

Automated implementation planning with templates requires existing .specify directory structures and feature specs to function. It is limited to generating design artifacts deterministically and relies on pre-execution checks rather than dynamic runtime analysis.
