How to decide if an idea is worth building before writing code with Spec Kit

Run the assess extension from intake to decide, and get an evidence-backed go, clarify or stop.

Short answer: Add the extension: specify extension add assess; then start with /speckit-assess-intake "Let users work offline and sync when they reconnect." slug=offline-mode; run research, define and shape: /speckit-assess-research, /speckit-assess-define, /speckit-assess-shape with the same slug. All steps.

Who it is forA founder or tech lead weighing a feature request before spending a sprint on it.

The problemTeams start building ideas that should have been clarified or dropped.

The outcomeA written go, clarify or stop decision with the research and shape behind it.

What you need first

  • uv to install the specify CLI
  • A supported coding agent (for example GitHub Copilot)

Steps

  1. Add the extension: specify extension add assess
  2. Start with /speckit-assess-intake "Let users work offline and sync when they reconnect." slug=offline-mode
  3. Run research, define and shape: /speckit-assess-research, /speckit-assess-define, /speckit-assess-shape with the same slug
  4. Close with /speckit-assess-decide slug=offline-mode

Prompt for your agent

Run github/spec-kit's idea assessment for: <idea>, slug=<slug>, through to the decide step, and give me the decision with the three strongest pieces of evidence.

Caveat.
