Fission-AI/OpenSpec
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

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.
