Frequently Asked Questions about update-specs

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I update functional specification documents to match new software behavior?▼

To update functional specification documents, you compare current software behavior against existing specs, add new requirements, and validate the updated specifications to ensure they remain accurate and implementation-agnostic.

What is the best way to maintain software specifications after modifying a feature?▼

Maintaining software specifications after feature modifications involves exploring the current behavior, reading existing specs, comparing the behavior to the specs, writing updates, and validating all specs against the codebase to ensure accuracy.

When do I need to validate requirements against my codebase?▼

You need to validate requirements against your codebase when a new feature is implemented or an existing one is modified, ensuring the specification documents accurately reflect the current software behavior and maintain a single source of truth.

How does behavior verification work for software specifications?▼

Behavior verification works by comparing the written functional specifications against the actual code implementation to confirm accuracy, ensuring the documents correctly describe the observed software behavior without being tied to specific implementation details.

Does this specification management process require a specific directory structure?▼

Yes, the specification management process requires specification documents to reside in a dedicated directory and adhere to a strict format, ensuring the requirements are organized and consistently implementation-agnostic.
