Shape a raw idea into a spec in rounds — size it (one step or a roadmap of planned steps), then every open question on one screen per round, each with a pick, until the user says done. The only way in; resumes a shaping spec, opens a planned step. With "auto" a decider answers and nobody is asked.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# spex new
`SPEX` = `node ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/spex.mjs`, from the repo root.
The thinking phase: the user ends it, never you. `spec.md` is the spec in words.
`/spex:requirements` turns it into records, from a folder this skill approved.
## Inputs you read
- The user's text, pasted or a file. A big design stays where it is: read its outline and
the sections you need, never copy it in.
- The repo's `README.md` or `CLAUDE.md`; `SPEX index` for the capabilities the idea touches
(overlap with a live record is the first thing you say); the first line of every other
`spec.md`, for a sibling idea.
- To resume, the argument is a folder: `SPEX gate new <dir>`. A `shaping` spec goes on from
its open questions; a `planned` step opens once every `depends_on` folder is built, else
the gate refuses: stop.
## Where you are
The first line of every reply, so a question is never taken for the plan or for other
work. Two words, never "planning":
- `SIZING <idea> · round 0 · one step or a roadmap?`
- `SHAPING specs/012-foo · step 1 of 13 · round 2 · open: 1 ●●● · 2 ●●○ · 0 ●○○`
The last line is the answer line. A round is its own reply; a side job gets its own.

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261107.629412d, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
