name: specify description: Generate a specification template for non-trivial changes using Spec-Driven Development. Creates GitHub issue + spec file following the 4-stage workflow (Specify → Clarify → Tasks → Implement). allowed-tools: Read, Write, Bash(git:), Bash(gh:), Glob, Grep

Specify Skill

Generate specification templates for changes that require formal design documentation before implementation. Follows GitHub Spec Kit 4-stage workflow: Specify → Clarify → Tasks → Implement.

Usage

/specify <type> [description]

Types: composition | infrastructure | security | platform

When to Use

Run /specify when making:

  • composition: New Crossplane compositions (KCL modules, XRDs)
  • infrastructure: Major OpenTofu/Terramate changes (VPC, EKS, IAM)
  • security: Network policies, RBAC, secrets management, PKI
  • platform: Multi-component features spanning multiple subsystems

When NOT to Use

Skip specs for:

  • Version bumps (Renovate PRs)
  • Documentation-only changes
  • Single-file bug fixes
  • Minor HelmRelease value tweaks

Workflow

Step 1: Determine Spec Type

If type argument provided, use it directly.

If type NOT provided, use AskUserQuestion to prompt:

Question: "What type of specification do you want to create?"
Header: "Spec type"
Options:
  - composition: "New Crossplane KCL composition, XRD, or managed resource pattern"
  - infrastructure: "OpenTofu/Terramate changes (VPC, EKS, IAM, network)"
  - security: "Network policies, RBAC, secrets management, PKI changes"
  - platform: "Multi-component features spanning multiple subsystems"

Context hints (use to suggest a default, but always confirm with user):

| Type | Trigger Patterns | |------|-----------------| | composition | KCL files, *-composition.yaml, *-definition.yaml | | infrastructure | opentofu/**/*.tf, terramate.tm.hcl, EKS/VPC changes | | security | *networkpolicy*, *rbac*, openbao/**, secrets | | platform | Multi-directory changes, new HelmReleases, observability |

Step 2: Get Description

If description provided, use it directly.

If description NOT provided, ask the user:

  • "Briefly describe what you want to specify (e.g., 'Add Valkey caching composition for Redis workloads')"

Step 3: Generate Semantic Slug

From description, create a slug:

  • Filter out stop words (I, want, to, the, for, a, an, etc.)
  • Take 3-4 most meaningful words
  • Join with hyphens, lowercase
  • Example: "Create a Valkey caching composition" → "valkey-caching-composition"

Step 4: Create GitHub Issue (Anchor)

Create a GitHub issue as the immutable anchor for discussion and tracking:

# Create issue and capture the issue number directly from the output
ISSUE_URL=$(gh issue create \
  --title "[SPEC] ${TITLE}" \
  --label "spec,${TYPE}" \
  --body "## Summary
${DESCRIPTION}

## Spec Type
${TYPE}

## Spec File
Will be created at: \`docs/specs/active/XXXX-#ISSUE-${SLUG}.md\`

---
_This issue tracks a formal specification. See the linked spec file for full details._")

# Extract issue number from the returned URL
ISSUE_NUM=$(echo "$ISSUE_URL" | grep -oP 'issues/\K\d+$')

Why GitHub Issue first?

  • Provides discoverability (searchable, project boards)
  • Enables discussion (comments, reactions, mentions)
  • Creates linkable anchor for PRs (Implements #123)
  • Separates "what/why" (issue) from "how" (spec file)

Step 5: Generate Spec Number

# Find next spec number by extracting the highest existing number
MAX_NUM=$(ls -1 docs/specs/active/*.md docs/specs/completed/*.md 2>/dev/null | \
  sed 's|.*/||' | \
  grep -oP '^\d{4}(?=-)' | \
  sort -rn | \
  head -1)
SPEC_NUM=$(printf "%04d" $((10#${MAX_NUM:-0} + 1)))

Step 6: Create Spec File

# Include issue number in filename for traceability
SPEC_FILE="docs/specs/active/${SPEC_NUM}-#${ISSUE_NUM}-${SLUG}.md"

Copy the appropriate template:

  • composition → docs/specs/templates/spec-crossplane-composition.md
  • infrastructure → docs/specs/templates/spec-infrastructure.md
  • security → docs/specs/templates/spec-security.md
  • platform → docs/specs/templates/spec-platform-capability.md

Step 7: Pre-fill Context

Replace placeholders in the template:

  • SPEC-XXXX → SPEC-${SPEC_NUM}
  • YYYY-MM-DD → current date
  • [Composition Name] / [Title] → derived from description
  • GitHub Issue: #XXX → GitHub Issue: #${ISSUE_NUM}

Step 8: Update GitHub Issue with Spec Link

gh issue comment ${ISSUE_NUM} --body "Spec file created: [\`${SPEC_FILE}\`](${SPEC_FILE})"

Step 9: Read Related Context

To help fill in the template, scan relevant files (only if they exist):

# Always read these core files
[ -f "CLAUDE.md" ] && echo "Read: CLAUDE.md"
[ -f "docs/specs/constitution.md" ] && echo "Read: constitution.md (platform principles)"

# Type-specific context (only if files exist)
if [ "$TYPE" = "composition" ]; then
  [ -f "docs/crossplane.md" ] && echo "Read: docs/crossplane.md"
fi

# Optional architectural context
[ -f "docs/technology-choices.md" ] && echo "Read: docs/technology-choices.md"

# Always scan similar completed specs for patterns
ls docs/specs/completed/*.md 2>/dev/null | head -3

Required context files:

  • CLAUDE.md - Project patterns and validation requirements
  • docs/specs/constitution.md - Platform-wide non-negotiable principles

Optional context files (read if they exist):

  • docs/crossplane.md - Composition patterns (for composition type)
  • docs/technology-choices.md - Architectural context
  • docs/specs/completed/*.md - Similar completed specs for reference

Step 10: Output

Display:

  1. GitHub issue URL
  2. Created spec file path
  3. Template type used
  4. Quick reference to the 4 personas who should review
  5. Next steps

Output Format

✅ Specification created!

🔗 GitHub Issue: https://github.com/Smana/cloud-native-ref/issues/XXX
📄 Spec File: docs/specs/active/XXXX-#XXX-slug.md
📋 Type: [composition|infrastructure|security|platform]

## Review Personas
Before implementation, self-review as:
- [ ] PM: Problem clear? User stories valid? Scope defined?
- [ ] Platform Engineer: Patterns consistent? Implementation feasible?
- [ ] Security & Compliance: Zero-trust? Least privilege? Secrets managed?
- [ ] SRE: Observable? Recoverable? Failure modes documented?

## Next Steps
1. Fill in the spec template (especially [NEEDS CLARIFICATION] sections)
2. Run /clarify to resolve clarifications interactively
3. Run /tasks to generate task breakdown
4. Implement the changes
5. Reference issue in PR: `Implements #XXX`
6. After merge: `mv docs/specs/active/XXXX-*.md docs/specs/completed/`
7. Close the GitHub issue

Examples

# Explicit type
/specify composition Create a Valkey caching composition for Redis workloads

# Explicit type
/specify infrastructure Add Karpenter provisioner for GPU nodes

# Explicit type
/specify security Implement network policies for apps namespace

# Explicit type
/specify platform Add distributed tracing with Tempo

Two-Document Model

| Document | Purpose | Location | |----------|---------|----------| | GitHub Issue | Immutable anchor, discussion, "what/why" | GitHub Issues | | Spec File | Detailed design, checklists, "how" | docs/specs/active/ |

The issue provides discoverability and discussion; the spec file contains implementation details.
