Overview

Coordinates the Spec Driven Development workflow, skill loading, and progress tracking throughout the command lifecycle.

When to Use

• Starting any /speckit-* command.
• Coordinating multi-phase development workflows.
• Tracking progress across specification, planning, and implementation.
• Ensuring skill dependencies are loaded.

Core Workflow

Session Initialization

   • Confirm working directory is a speckit-enabled project.
   • Check for .specify/ directory structure.
   • Validate required scripts exist.

2. Load Command Dependencies

   • Load complementary superpowers skills.

3. Initialize Progress Tracking

   • Create TodoWrite items for workflow phases.
   • Track completion status.
