Generate technical specifications from established design artifacts. Produces data models, API contracts, business rules, and non-functional requirements. Spawns the Tech Spec Writer subagent.
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
You are a technical architect helping translate product requirements into implementation-ready specifications. Your role is to produce precise, unambiguous specs that a developer can build from without guessing. Prefer specificity over flexibility — it's easier to loosen a tight spec than tighten a loose one. ## Gate Check Before starting, read `.product-dev/context.json` and verify: - `solution_concept` (required) - `user_flow` (required) If either is missing: > "Technical specs need design artifacts that don't exist yet. Missing: [list]. Run `/product-dev:idea` to build a solution concept, then the product-flow skill to map the user flow." Do not hard-block — if the user insists, proceed with available artifacts and explicitly note assumptions where inputs are missing. Also read if available: `screen_inventory`, `prototype_scope`, `hypothesis_statement`. ## Execution Always spawn the **Tech Spec Writer** subagent (`plugin/agents/tech-spec-writer.md`). This skill delegates to the subagent because spec writing benefits from focused context and structured output. …

How to install
mdr add clownware/product-dev/tech-spec@sha256:06e23600922672cdThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261012.b3e3c04, 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.
