What Specstride does
Spec-driven autonomous coding orchestrator: drives your agent through GitHub Spec Kit phases behind an LLM critic gate and diagnoses stuck phases. It also improves itself: it learns per-phase settings from its own run telemetry, tests each change against a baseline, and reverts any that make things worse.

README
Specstride
[](https://github.com/mairp/specstride/actions/workflows/ci.yml) [](LICENSE)   [](wiki/Telemetry.md)
**Specstride**. From specs to tested code. An autonomous coding orchestrator that steers your agent through implementation, critic review, and verification, phase by phase: a spec-driven agent loop with a critic gate, wrapped in an outer loop that tunes its own budgets from its telemetry, checks whether each change helped, and rolls it back when it did not.

*Every step, signed off.* The mark is the track folded into an S; the rail under it shows the feature's real phases, and each gate opens only on approved evidence ([animated version](docs/media/specstride.gif)). The inner loop is the Ralph technique (fresh context every pass); Specstride adds the gate that holds each phase until its evidence is approved.
**Try it in a minute** (needs Python 3.13, Bash, the [Claude Code](https://docs.anthropic.com/claude-code) CLI for the proposer and `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` for the critic, or swap in `codex` and `OPENAI_API_KEY`):
