As coding agents become more effective, developers face challenges with vague prompting, often leading to unreliable code—termed “vibe-coding.” This method may work for quick prototypes but falls short for mission-critical applications. The solution lies in embracing spec-driven development, where specifications act as living documents that evolve with the project. Our Spec Kit introduces a structured process, transforming vague prompts into clear directives for coding agents like GitHub Copilot and Claude Code.
The process unfolds in four phases: Specify, where you outline user experiences; Plan, where technical details are generated; Tasks, breaking down the project into actionable steps; and Implement, with focused code contributions for review. This iterative approach ensures clarity and reduces guesswork. As intent becomes the source of truth, developers can effectively manage complex systems and enhance collaborative efficiency.
