Spec-driven development with AI: Get started with a new open source toolkit

▤ Summary

Spec Kit introduces an open source toolkit that helps developers use AI coding agents through a spec-driven workflow. The process turns a high-level idea into a specification, then a technical plan, then actionable tasks, and finally implementation. The article argues that clear specs improve reliability because AI agents need explicit intent rather than vague prompts. It also highlights use cases such as greenfield projects, adding features to existing systems, and legacy modernization.
