# Agentic SDLC and Spec-Driven Development
Kiro-style Spec-Driven Development on an agentic SDLC
## Project Context
### Paths
- Steering: `{{KIRO_DIR}}/steering/`
- Specs: `{{KIRO_DIR}}/specs/`
### Steering vs Specification
**Steering** (`{{KIRO_DIR}}/steering/`) - Guide AI with project-wide rules and context
**Specs** (`{{KIRO_DIR}}/specs/`) - Formalize development process for individual features
### Active Specifications
- Check `{{KIRO_DIR}}/specs/` for active specifications
- Use `/kiro-spec-status [feature-name]` to check progress
## Development Guidelines
{{DEV_GUIDELINES}}
## Minimal Workflow
- Phase 0 (optional): `/kiro-steering`, `/kiro-steering-custom`
- Discovery: `/kiro-discovery "idea"` — determines action path, writes brief.md + roadmap.md for multi-spec projects
- Phase 1 (Specification):
- Single spec: `/kiro-spec-quick {feature} [--auto]` or step by step:
- `/kiro-spec-init "description"`
- `/kiro-spec-requirements {feature}`
- `/kiro-validate-gap {feature}` (optional: for existing codebase)
- `/kiro-spec-design {feature} [-y]`
- `/kiro-validate-design {feature}` (optional: design review)
- `/kiro-spec-tasks {feature} [-y]`
- Multi-spec: `/kiro-spec-batch` — creates all specs from roadmap.md in parallel by dependency wave
- - Phase 2 (Implementation): `/kiro-impl {feature} [tasks]`
+ - Phase 2 (Implementation): `/kiro-impl {feature} [tasks] [--review required|inline|off]`
- Without task numbers: autonomous mode (subagent per task + independent review + final validation)
- With task numbers: manual mode (selected tasks in main context, still reviewer-gated before completion)
+ - `--review off` skips task-local review; use it intentionally and keep `/kiro-validate-impl {feature}` as the final quality gate
- `/kiro-validate-impl {feature}` (standalone re-validation)
- Progress check: `/kiro-spec-status {feature}` (use anytime)
## Skills Structure
Skills are located in `.claude/skills/kiro-*/SKILL.md`
- Each skill is a directory with a `SKILL.md` file
- Skills run inline with access to conversation context
- Skills may delegate parallel research to subagents for efficiency
- Additional files (templates, examples) can be added to skill directories
- `kiro-review` — task-local adversarial review protocol used by reviewer subagents
- `kiro-debug` — root-cause-first debug protocol used by debugger subagents
- `kiro-verify-completion` — fresh-evidence gate before success or completion claims
- **If there is even a 1% chance a skill applies to the current task, invoke it.** Do not skip skills because the task seems simple.
## Development Rules
- 3-phase approval workflow: Requirements → Design → Tasks → Implementation
- Human review required each phase; use `-y` only for intentional fast-track
- Keep steering current and verify alignment with `/kiro-spec-status`
- Follow the user's instructions precisely, and within that scope act autonomously: gather the necessary context and complete the requested work end-to-end in this run, asking questions only when essential information is missing or the instructions are critically ambiguous.
## Steering Configuration
- Load entire `{{KIRO_DIR}}/steering/` as project memory
- Default files: `product.md`, `tech.md`, `structure.md`
- Custom files are supported (managed via `/kiro-steering-custom`)
