Adjusting the Spec Driven Development Workflow

Use when you want to adjust the SDD workflow, not to execute it.

Inspiration

Primary inspiration is OPSX (OpenSpec experimental workflow):

• https://github.com/Fission-AI/OpenSpec/blob/main/docs/experimental-workflow.md

OPSX emphasizes action-based, iterative workflows and customizable artifacts.

Why Read OpenSpec Skill Templates

• https://github.com/Fission-AI/OpenSpec/blob/main/src/core/templates/skill-templates.ts
• Shows how OpenSpec structures skills, guardrails, and iteration patterns
• Useful for aligning our skills and prompts with proven patterns

Guidance

• Reduce drift between proposal, deltas, and any derived artifacts.
• Avoid duplicating content across files without a clear purpose.
• Prefer small, stable changes over large rewrites.
• Study docs/ to see the current workflow structure, skills, and tools before changing it.
