About the project

An open-source toolkit for Spec-Driven Development that turns specifications into executable artifacts and guides the process from requirements to implementation with any AI coding agent.

Useful for
  • Bootstrap a Spec-Driven Development workflow in a new project via specify init and /speckit-* commands
  • Assess a raw idea through the intake→research→define→shape→decide flow with the assess extension
  • Run a scoped assess→fix→test bug-fixing cycle using the bug extension

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

Star growth looks organic. Data as of October 29, 2026, 05:11 UTC.

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

Stars per day

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 2026-10-29 (UTC), 00:03–04:59: 143660 → 143717 stars (+57). This is the change over that interval.
  • Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +307 stars, using observed gains and the previous day.
  • Over the last two days the pace is 2× that of the previous week and a half.
  • Elevated gains were measured on the last 2 completed UTC days in a row. Continued growth is not guaranteed.
  • GitHub Trending Python today: #6, +361 stars.
  • About 36 forks a day — people are taking the code.

Measured growth: the last 7 completed days

New stars over 7 days: 1,478. +31% versus the preceding 7 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.
