I use speckit, and while I like the spec/clarify/plan/task/analyze/implement loop (although it can get a bit overwhelming at times), I don't like that I have to start with writing a spec and implement it to begin with. I am looking for a more of a design phase before the spec phase, where I can talk about the overall application architecture, and then start writing specs for implementing pieces of it.
For instance, let's say I want to build a github repo provisioner that 1. creates repos with desired setup, and 2. bulk edit repos with secret updates, yaml updates, etc. I don't want to build both the features at the beginning. I want to first build only the create portion, and then do the bulk edit feature later on. With speckit, I can do this by only telling it to create the spec for the build portion, but later if I want to build the bulk edit portion, the whole application might need to be changed in important places, because it wasn't a 'planned' feature when it was first designed. I want instead to have a design phase where I describe and maintain a doc with the whole application, and when I start the spec for the create portion, the agent can understand that this create portion is only part of a bigger application and can design/implement the create portion accordingly.
Have you come across a situation like this? how do you handle your big applications? Please advise.
[Speckit] For decades, code has been king — specifications were just scaffolding we built and discarded
WTF? New devs seem to forget that, for decades, the waterfall style of coding was all about writing specs for months before any code was written.
how do you handle your big applications?
What is "big" to you? I don't think a 20 years old application that has 100 millions of lines of code can be vibe-coded like that.
Do you use speckit? What are your thoughts and experiences on speckit and other such frameworks?
