Extension ID: prep-specify
Version: 1.0.0

Description

Clarifies rough feature ideas into paste-ready /speckit.specify prompts.

Checklist

  • Valid extension.yml manifest
  • README.md with installation and usage docs
  • LICENSE file included
  • GitHub release created (v1.0.0)
  • Extension tested on real project
  • All commands working
  • No security vulnerabilities known
  • Added to extensions/catalog.community.json

  • Published archive install via specify extension add prep-specify --from https://github.com/nalthoff/spec-kit-prep-specify/archive/refs/tags/v1.0.0.zip

Additional Notes

The extension is a read-only pre-specify helper that reviews repo context, asks only high-value clarification questions when needed, and returns a paste-ready /speckit.specify command.

Add the Prep Specify catalog entry and README row so the extension can be discovered from the Spec Kit community extension list.
