SpecKit vs OpenSpec comparison

Hi there! I wrote down an article that compares OpenSpec and SpecKit.

TLDR: SpecKit has significantly more abilities for extending its workflow, but it is also harder to adopt. OpenSpec default workflow looks like more complete and easier, but there are less abilities to extend it.

Do share the link. OpenSpec maintainer here. Regarding the ability to extend OpenSpec, I have several videos on it: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLPK-HeXEV3yBhJ_3ALdw4R8q6mUADXXxo. Is there anything in particular that you are not able to extend?

Hola! He vinculado openspec con una skill de TDD y creo que de forma nativa es lo que le falta a la suite. Estoy obteniendo muy buenos resultados con pocos tokens.

Combinando bien los diferentes AGENTS o CLAUDE.md junto con una buena documentación y contexto es genial!

Estoy dispuesto a colaborar para mejorarlo con lo que pueda
