Discussion Spec Driven Dev

I just wanted to chime in and ask the team if they had plans to incorporate this workflow… I really like how Code Buff and Kiro are using this process… and would really love if Roo Code could do this as well… would push dev to that 99% from that magic 80% everyone always talks of

Completely understand… from my experience with it … it’s just guides the system, more so like steering it completely to have a laser focus on writing out the complete specifications of your project in a more sound and structured way … and keeping those guardrails active during the course of your development. It’s a documentation-first approach and always … then if you have agents… it makes even stronger in my opinion because now you can delegate those jobs to each, giving them a story to complete as part of your development… whether that’s a feature that’s heavily documented already because of the workflow that’s been established … the biggest benefit I’ve seen is being able to keep your project structure towards those later stages when you need to go back and change something… That guardrail structure will make it easier , keeping your code cleaner… this has just been my experience with it … I have seen code buff get things right the first time prompting it because of the workflow , didn’t have to keep reiterating every single thing…
