Spec-driven development (SDD) for AI coding assistants.

About the project

OpenSpec is a spec-driven development framework for AI coding assistants: it turns ideas into Markdown specs with requirements and scenarios before any code is written. It supports 30+ tools (Cursor, Copilot, Codex, etc.) and cross-repo planning via Stores.

Useful for
  • Plan a feature with /opsx:propose to get proposal, specs, design and tasks before coding
  • Run /opsx:explore to have the AI read the codebase and suggest an approach
  • Share team requirements across repos in a separate planning repo via Stores

3.3 Steady Magnitude out of 10 — how fast interest is growing, not a quality score.

Star growth looks organic. Data as of October 28, 2026, 11:37 UTC.

The star-growth assessment does not verify whether the project is safe to run.

Stars per day

0250500August 5, 2026November 2, 2026

Bars show stars per UTC day; the line is a moving average of available history. Gaps mean missing data, not zero growth. Today's bar is incomplete. Red marks spike days.

Why it’s trending

  • Star-counter measurements on 2026-10-28 (UTC), 00:05–11:25: 73168 → 73229 stars (+61). This is the change over that interval.
  • Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +124 stars, using observed gains and the previous day.
  • About 14 forks a day — people are taking the code.

Measured growth: the last 7 completed days

Star trust

Growth looks organic: forks and discussion are in line with active projects, and stars arrive unevenly, the way people give them.

These are heuristics, not a verdict: we judge by the repository’s behavior, not by a list of stargazers.
