README
SpecForge
**AI-native spec-driven development workflow CLI** — a synthesis of lessons from [OpenSpec](https://github.com/Fission-AI/OpenSpec), [gstack](https://github.com/garrytan/gstack), [superpowers](https://github.com/obra/superpowers), [claude-task-master](https://github.com/eyaltoledano/claude-task-master) and [Anthropic skills](https://github.com/anthropics/skills), re-forged into a single local CLI plus a repeatable workflow template.

Heritage: Built on the Shoulders of Five Projects
SpecForge does not reinvent spec-driven development — it **internalizes and fuses** the most battle-tested patterns from the open-source ecosystem into one coherent toolchain. SpecForge absorbs the **methodology, not the implementation**, from each project listed below.
| Source Project | What SpecForge Adopts |
|---|---|
| **OpenSpec** (Fission-AI) | Dual-directory model (.specforge/ framework assets + specforge/ user assets), artifact DAG (BLOCKED / READY / DONE), Profile system (minimal / standard / custom), dual-track surface of Commands + Skills |
| **gstack** (garrytan) | Preamble bootstrapping system (inline blocks), multi-perspective plan review, session-aware context collection |
| **superpowers** (obra) | Iron Laws hard gates, skill chaining / invocation, sub-agent-driven implementation, anti-evasion language, stress-test discipline |
| **claude-task-master** (eyaltoledano) | PRD → task decomposition pipeline, Zod-validated schema |
