SPECLAN ID Generator

To generate collision-free SPECLAN IDs, this tool scans existing SPECLAN directories and frontmatter to prevent ID reuse. It validates parent-child relationships and enforces correct ID formats for goals, features, requirements, and change-requests. You can run it via Node.js or Bash.

Yes, you can generate SPECLAN IDs in batch without Node.js by using the included Bash script, generate-id.sh. The Skill provides cross-implementation availability, offering both Bash and Node.js scripts to support flexible workflow environments.

Parent-aware ID generation preserves SPECLAN hierarchy by using end-biased ordering. When using the --parent flag, the tool validates parent-child relationships and generates new IDs that maintain natural ordering within the existing directory structure.

When the SPECLAN ID space is exhausted or inputs are invalid, the generator reports specific errors. It actively enforces correct ID formats and validates parent-child relationships, immediately stopping generation to prevent duplicate or malformed identifiers.

The best way to automate unique ID generation for requirements and change-requests is using the Node.js generator with batch generation support. It scans existing frontmatter to ensure collision-free results while preserving the required hierarchy.
