spec-dev 0.1.4

Bundle of the .spec-dev workspace template.

spec-dev

A small helper package that bundles the .spec-dev workspace template so it can be installed with pip and copied into new projects.

Installation

pip install spec-dev

If you are working from the repository source, you can install it locally instead:

pip install .

CLI Usage

spec-dev init               # copy .spec-dev into the current directory
spec-dev init path/to/app   # copy into a specific directory
spec-dev init --force       # overwrite an existing .spec-dev folder
spec-dev memory T-123       # scaffold .spec-dev/active-memories/T-123-memory.md
# template lives at .spec-dev/templates/memories/task-memory-template.md

The CLI defaults to init when you omit the subcommand, so spec-dev keeps the original behaviour.

Python API

from spec_dev import copy, create_memory

copy("/path/to/project", overwrite=True)
create_memory("T-123", "/path/to/project")

Both helpers return a Path to the created resources.

Templates

All starter files live under .spec-dev/templates/. Use templates/active/ for phase artifacts (copy into .spec-dev/active-dev/ and rename), and templates/memories/ for archival notes. Fill templates out before advancing gates; refer to the included example for memory expectations. Task memories live under .spec-dev/active-memories/ and follow a lightweight playbook—why it mattered, what changed, how it shipped, validation, artifacts, ripple effects, and any lessons learned—trim sections that do not apply.
