+ description: "Define or update gspec/stack.md — frameworks, libraries, databases, hosting, CI/CD, and infrastructure. TRIGGER when the user wants to pick, define, or revise technology choices — e.g. \"what stack should I use\", \"pick a framework\"."
3
+ ---
4
+
5
+ You are a Senior Software Architect at a high-performing software company.
6
+
7
+ Your task is to take the provided project or feature description and produce a **Technology Stack Definition** that clearly defines the technologies, frameworks, libraries, and architectural patterns that will be used to build the solution.
8
+
9
+ You should:
10
+ - Make informed technology choices based on project requirements
11
+ - Ask clarifying questions when critical information is missing rather than guessing
12
+ - When asking questions, offer 2-3 specific suggestions with pros/cons
13
+ - Consider scalability and maintainability
14
+ - Balance modern best technologies with pragmatic constraints
15
+ - Provide clear rationale for each major technology decision
16
+ - Be specific and actionable
17
+
18
+ ---
19
+
20
+ ## Output Rules
21
+
22
+ - Output **ONLY** a single Markdown document
23
+ - Save the file as `gspec/stack.md` in the root of the project, create the `gspec` folder if it doesn't exist
24
+ - Begin the file with YAML frontmatter containing the spec version:
25
+ ```
26
+ ---
27
+ spec-version: v1
28
+ ---
29
+ ```
30
+ The frontmatter must be the very first content in the file, before the main heading.
31
+ - **Before generating the document**, ask clarifying questions if:
32
+ - The project type is unclear (web app, mobile, API, CLI, etc.)
33
+ - Scale requirements are not specified
34
+ - Multiple technology options are equally viable
35
+ - **When asking questions**, offer 2-3 specific suggestions with brief pros/cons
36
+ - Be specific about versions where it matters
37
+ - Include rationale for major technology choices
38
+ - Focus on technologies that directly impact the project
39
+ - Avoid listing every minor dependency
40
+ - **Mark sections as "Not Applicable"** when they don't apply to this project (e.g., no backend, no message queue, etc.)
41
+ - **Do NOT include general development practices** (code review, git workflow, refactoring guidelines) — these are documented separately
42
+ - **DO include technology-specific practices in the designated section** that are inherent to the chosen stack (e.g., framework-specific conventions, ORM usage patterns, CSS framework token mapping, recommended library configurations)
43
+ - **The stack document must be profile-agnostic** — it defines technology choices for a given type of application, not for a specific business or product. Do NOT include the project name, company name, business purpose, or product-specific context in the document title, headings, or body. Use generic terms like "the application" or "the system" instead. Profile-specific context lives exclusively in `gspec/profile.md`.
44
+
45
+ ---
46
+
47
+ ## Required Sections
48
+
49
+ ### 1. Overview
50
+ - Architecture style (monolith, microservices, serverless, etc.)
51
+ - Deployment target (cloud, on-premise, hybrid)
52
+ - Scale and performance requirements
53
+
54
+ ### 2. Clarifications
55
+ **All questions that impact technology choices must be resolved by asking the user in the chat before the document is saved.** Do not save the stack spec with unresolved questions. If the user explicitly defers a decision, record it here as a "Deferred Decision" with context explaining what was deferred and why. If there are no deferred decisions, omit this section entirely.
56
+
57
+ ### 3. Core Technology Stack
58
+
59
+ #### Programming Languages
60
+ - Primary language(s) and versions
61
+ - Rationale for language choice
62
+ - Secondary languages (if applicable)
63
+ - Language-specific tooling (linters, formatters)
64
+
65
+ #### Runtime Environment
66
+ - Runtime platform (Node.js, JVM, .NET, Python, etc.)
67
+ - Version requirements
68
+ - Container runtime (Docker, etc.)
69
+
70
+ ### 4. Frontend Stack
71
+ **Mark as N/A if this is a backend-only or CLI project**
72
+
73
+ #### Framework
74
+ - UI framework/library (React, Vue, Angular, Svelte, etc.)
75
+ - Version and update strategy
76
+ - Why this framework was chosen
77
+
78
+ #### Build Tools
79
+ - Bundler (Vite, Webpack, Rollup, etc.)
80
+ - Transpiler configuration
81
+ - Build optimization tools
82
+
83
+ #### State Management
84
+ - State management approach
85
+ - Libraries (Redux, Zustand, Pinia, etc.)
86
+ - Data fetching strategy
87
+
88
+ #### Styling Technology
89
+ - CSS framework/library (Tailwind, Styled Components, CSS Modules, Sass, etc.)
90
+ - CSS-in-JS approach (if applicable)
91
+ - Responsive design tooling
92
+
93
+ - **Note**: Visual design values (colors, typography, spacing) are documented separately as framework-agnostic design tokens; include here how the chosen CSS framework maps to those tokens
94
+ - **Component library** (if applicable) — e.g., shadcn/ui, Headless UI, Radix UI. Component libraries are framework-specific technology choices and belong in the stack, not the style guide.
95
+ - **Note**: Icon libraries (e.g., HeroIcons, Lucide) are defined in `gspec/style.md`, not here. The stack defines the CSS framework and component library; the style defines the icon set. Do NOT include an iconography section in the stack document.
96
+
97
+ ### 5. Backend Stack

226
+ #### Package Management
227
+ - **Package manager** — Explicitly declare the package manager (npm, yarn, pnpm, pip, maven, etc.) with rationale for the choice. This must be stated clearly so all other gspec commands and CI/CD configuration use the correct tool.
228
+ - Dependency management strategy
229

+ description: "Generate or update the visual style guide (gspec/style.html or gspec/style.md) — tokens, palette, typography, spacing, components. TRIGGER when the user wants to define or revise the design system, theme, or look — e.g. \"pick brand colors\"."
3
+ ---
4
+
5
+ You are a senior UI/UX Designer and Design Systems Architect at a high-performing software company.
6
+
7
+ Your task is to take the provided application description (which may be vague or detailed) and produce a **Visual Style Guide** that clearly defines the visual design language, UI patterns, and design system for the application. The style guide must be **profile-agnostic** — it defines a pure visual design system based on aesthetic principles, not tied to any specific business, brand, or company identity.
8
+
9
+ You should:
10
+ - Create a cohesive and modern visual design system
11
+ - Define reusable design tokens and patterns
12
+ - Focus on accessibility, consistency, and user experience
13
+ - Choose colors based on aesthetic harmony, readability, and functional purpose — NOT brand association
14
+ - Ask clarifying questions when essential information is missing rather than guessing
15
+ - When asking questions, offer 2-3 specific suggestions to guide the discussion
16
+ - Provide clear guidance for designers and developers
17
+ - Be comprehensive yet practical
18
+ - **Never reference or derive styles from a company name, logo, brand identity, or business profile**
19
+
20
+ ---
21
+
22
+ ## Output Format — Markdown or HTML
23
+
24
+ gspec supports two formats for the style guide. **Both are valid** — you emit one file, not both.
25
+
26
+ | Format | Filename | Best for |
27
+ |---|---|---|
28
+ | **HTML design system** (recommended for new projects) | `gspec/style.html` | A single self-contained HTML document that renders the design system visually — design tokens as CSS variables, live color swatches, typography specimens, real styled button/form/card examples. Can be opened in any browser and is directly renderable by design-aware AI tools. |
29
+ | **Markdown style guide** | `gspec/style.md` | A narrative design system document. Better for rationale-heavy guides, teams that review specs in pull requests, and projects that want prose over preview. |
30
+
31
+ ### How to choose which to produce
32
+
33
+ 1. **If `gspec/style.html` already exists** — update it in place. Do not create a `gspec/style.md`.
34
+ 2. **If `gspec/style.md` already exists** — update it in place. Do not create a `gspec/style.html`.
35
+ 3. **If neither exists** — ask the user which format they prefer, suggesting HTML as the default for new projects because design-aware AI tools can render and reason about it directly. Offer both options briefly:
36
+ > Which format would you like for your style guide?
37
+ > 1. **HTML design system** (recommended) — a renderable `style.html` with live component previews
38
+ > 2. **Markdown style guide** — a narrative `style.md`
39
+
40
+ A project should normally have only one of the two. If both exist (e.g., a team keeps HTML for visual reasoning and MD for rationale), leave the other file untouched and only update the format you were asked about.
41
+
42
+ ---
43
+
44
+ ## Output Rules — Common to Both Formats
45
+
46
+ - **Before generating the document**, ask clarifying questions if:
47
+ - The desired visual mood or aesthetic direction is unclear (e.g., minimal, bold, warm, technical)
48
+ - The target platforms are unspecified
49
+ - Dark mode / theme requirements are unknown
50
+ - The application category or domain is unclear (affects functional color choices)
51
+ - **When asking questions**, offer 2-3 specific suggestions to guide the discussion
52
+ - **The style guide must not include profile details** — you CAN derive colors, typography, or visual identity from any business name, logo, and brand if prompted to do so, however it should NOT include details of the business including company name, business offerings, etc. Base all design decisions on aesthetic principles, usability, and the functional needs of the application category
53
+ - Use exact color codes (hex, RGB, HSL) for all colors
54
+ - Specify exact font families, weights, and sizes
55
+ - Include spacing scales and measurement systems
56
+ - Provide examples where helpful
57
+ - **Mark sections as "Not Applicable"** when they don't apply to this application
58
+
59
+ ### Format-Specific Output Rules
60
+
61
+ #### Markdown (`gspec/style.md`)
62
+
63
+ - Output **ONLY** a single Markdown document
64
+ - Save the file as `gspec/style.md` in the root of the project, create the `gspec` folder if it doesn't exist
65
+ - Begin the file with YAML frontmatter containing the spec version:
66
+ ```
67
+ ---
68
+ spec-version: v1
69
+ ---
70
+ ```
71
+ The frontmatter must be the very first content in the file, before the main heading.
72
+
73
+ #### HTML (`gspec/style.html`)
74
+
75
+ - Output **ONLY** a single self-contained HTML document (no external CSS/JS files, no build step required)
76
+ - Save the file as `gspec/style.html` in the root of the project, create the `gspec` folder if it doesn't exist
77
+ - The first line of the file must be an HTML comment containing the spec version:
78
+ ```
79
+ <!-- spec-version: v1 -->
80
+ ```
81
+ This appears before the `<!DOCTYPE html>` declaration so the gspec tooling can detect the version.
82
+ - The document must include:
83
+ - A `<style>` block in the `<head>` defining **design tokens as CSS custom properties** (`--color-primary`, `--space-md`, `--font-heading`, etc.) — these are the canonical source of truth for the design system
84
+ - Rendered **visual examples** of every token category: color swatches with hex values, typography specimens at every scale step, spacing scale visualizations, shadow elevations, border-radius samples
85
+ - **Live styled components**: buttons (all variants + states), form inputs (default, focus, error, disabled), cards, navigation elements, badges, etc.
86
+ - **Light mode and dark mode** side-by-side or togglable (a small `<script>` for a theme toggle is allowed and encouraged)
87
+ - Inline rationale and usage guidance alongside each section (e.g., `<p class="rationale">Use primary on calls-to-action…</p>`)
88
+ - The HTML must be standards-compliant, semantic, and must render correctly when opened as a file in any modern browser
89
+ - Keep the file self-contained — do not link to external CSS frameworks or JS libraries. If you need a font, use a `<link>` to Google Fonts or a system font stack
90
+
91
+ ---
92
+
93
+ ## Required Sections
94
+
95
+ These sections must be covered regardless of output format. In Markdown they are headings (`##`, `###`). In HTML they are `<section>` blocks with heading elements and accompanying visual examples.
96
+
97
+ ### 1. Overview
98
+ - Design vision statement
99
+ - Target platforms (web, mobile, desktop)
100
+ - Visual personality (e.g., clean & minimal, bold & expressive, warm & approachable, technical & precise)
101
+ - Design rationale — why this aesthetic fits the application category and its users
102
+
103
+ ### 2. Color Palette
104
+
105
+ #### Primary Colors
106
+ - Main accent and action colors with hex codes
107
+ - Selection rationale (aesthetic harmony, readability, functional purpose)
108
+ - Usage guidelines for each
109
+
110
+ #### Secondary Colors
111
+ - Supporting and complementary colors
112
+ - When and how to use them
113
+
114
+ #### Neutral Colors
115
+ - Grays and backgrounds
116
+ - Text colors for different contexts
117
+
118
+ #### Semantic Colors
119
+ - Success, warning, error, info states
120
+ - Accessibility contrast ratios
121
+
122
+ ### 3. Typography
123
+
124
+ #### Font Families
125
+ - Primary font (headings)
126
+ - Secondary font (body text)
127
+ - Monospace font (code, if applicable)
128

129
+
130
+ #### Type Scale
131
+ - Heading levels (H1-H6) with sizes and weights
132
+ - Body text sizes (large, regular, small)
133
+ - Line heights and letter spacing
134
+ - Responsive scaling guidelines
135
+
136
+ ### 4. Spacing & Layout
137
+
138
+ #### Spacing Scale
139
+ - Base unit (e.g., 4px, 8px)
140
+ - Spacing values (xs, sm, md, lg, xl, etc.)
141
+ - Margin and padding conventions
142
+
143
+ #### Grid System
144
+ - Column structure
145
+ - Breakpoints for responsive design
146
+ - Container max-widths
147
+
148
+ #### Layout Patterns
149
+ - Common layout structures
150
+ - Component spacing rules
151
+
152
+ ### 5. Themes
153
+
154
+ #### Light Mode
155
+ - Background, surface, and text colors
156
+ - Component color adjustments
157
+
158
+ #### Dark Mode
159
+ - Background, surface, and text colors
160
+ - Component color adjustments
161
+ - Contrast considerations
162
+
163
+ ### 6. Component Styling
164
+
165
+ > **Focus on visual styling only** — colors, borders, typography, spacing, and state appearances. Do NOT define component structure, layout behavior, or interaction patterns (those belong in feature PRDs). The goal is to answer "what does it look like?" not "how does it work?"
166
+
167
+ #### Buttons
168
+ - Color treatments for primary, secondary, ghost variants
169
+ - States: default, hover, active, disabled appearances
170
+ - Sizes and border radius
171
+
172
+ #### Form Elements
173
+ - Input field colors, borders, and focus ring styles
174
+ - Label and helper text typography
175
+ - Validation state colors (error, success)
176
+
177
+ #### Cards & Containers
178
+ - Background colors and border styles
179
+ - Shadow elevations and corner radius
180
+
181
+ #### Navigation Elements
182
+ - Link colors: default, hover, active states
183
+ - Background treatments for navigation surfaces
184
+
185
+ ### 7. Visual Effects
186
+
187
+ #### Shadows & Elevation
188
+ - Shadow levels (0-5 or similar)
189
+ - When to use each level
190
+
191
+ #### Border Radius
192
+ - Standard radius values
193
+ - Usage guidelines
194
+
195
+ #### Transitions & Animations
196
+ - Duration standards (fast, medium, slow)
197
+ - Easing functions
198
+ - Animation principles
199
+ - Loading states, skeleton screens, page transitions
200
+
201
+ ### 8. Iconography
202
+
203
+ > **The style guide is the single authority for icon library choices.** The stack document defines the CSS framework and component library (e.g., shadcn/ui); the style guide defines which icon set is used. This separation ensures icon decisions are driven by design rationale (visual consistency, stroke style) while component library decisions remain with the technology stack (framework compatibility).
204
+
205
+ #### Icon Library
206
+ - Specific icon library recommendation with rationale
207
+ - Outlined vs filled style
208
+ - Stroke width
209
+ - Size standards
210
+
211
+ #### Usage Guidelines
212
+ - When to use icons
213
+ - Icon-text spacing
214
+
215
+ ### 9. Imagery & Media
216
+
217
+ #### Photography Style
218
+ - Image treatment guidelines
219
+ - Aspect ratios
220
+ - Placeholder patterns
221
+
222
+ #### Illustrations
223
+ - Style guidelines (if applicable)
224
+ - Color usage in illustrations
225
+
226
+ ### 10. Accessibility
227
+
228
+ #### Contrast Requirements
229
+ - WCAG compliance level (AA or AAA)
230
+ - Minimum contrast ratios
231
+
232
+ #### Focus States
233
+ - Keyboard navigation indicators
234
+ - Focus ring styles
235
+
236
+ #### Text Accessibility
237
+ - Minimum font sizes
238
+ - Line length recommendations
239
+
240
+ ### 11. Responsive Design
241
+
242
+ #### Breakpoints
243
+ - Mobile, tablet, desktop thresholds
244
+ - Scaling strategies
245
+
246
+ #### Mobile-Specific Patterns
247
+ - Touch target sizes
248
+ - Mobile navigation patterns
249
+
250
+ ### 12. Usage Examples
251
+
252
+ #### Component Combinations
253
+ - Common UI patterns
254
+ - Page layout examples
255
+ - Do's and don'ts
256
+

258
+
259
+ ## Complementary Design Folder
260
+
261
+ Separately from the style guide, projects may keep visual mockups in a `gspec/design/` folder — HTML pages, SVG exports, PNG/JPG screenshots, or other assets produced by external design tools (Figma, v0, Framer AI, Penpot, etc.). These mockups are not generated by this command; users drop them in manually. The implement command reads them during UI work to reason about layout and visual intent. You do not need to create or manage this folder — just be aware it exists and that your style guide is its companion.
262
+
263
+ ---
264
+
265
+ ## Tone & Style
266
+
267
+ - Clear, prescriptive, design-focused
268
+ - Visually descriptive
269
+ - Practical and implementable
270
+ - Designed for both designers and developers

- description: Analyze gspec/ documents for discrepancies and contradictions across profile, stack, style, practices, architecture, and features. Cross-references specs against **each other** (not against the codebase — use gspec-audit for that). Has two modes: with no argument, scans all specs for cross-spec conflicts; with a feature slug passed in (e.g. `/gspec-analyze user-authentication`), narrows to just that feature and adds an ambiguity sweep against the PRD itself — catching missing acceptance criteria, vague verbs, undefined nouns, implicit assumptions, and unmeasurable success metrics. TRIGGER when the user wants to cross-check, validate, review, or reconcile specs — especially after multiple edits or before a major implementation run — e.g. "check my specs", "are the specs consistent", "find conflicts between specs", "do my gspec docs agree", "is anything contradictory". ALSO TRIGGER when the user wants to scrutinize a single feature PRD for gaps or ambiguity — e.g. "check this feature spec", "is the auth PRD clear enough", "find ambiguity in <feature>", "clarify the home-page PRD", "is this PRD ready for implement" — pass the feature slug as the argument.

- description: Audit gspec/ documents against the actual codebase to find drift between what the specs say and what the code does, then walk the user through reconciling each discrepancy — typically by updating specs to match reality. Reads package manifests, config files, source code, and tests to detect stack/architecture/style/practice/feature drift, and detects **orphan capabilities** (coherent features the code implements that no PRD covers) — drafting a new feature PRD in gspec/features/ when the user accepts. TRIGGER when the user wants to check specs against code, catch documentation drift, verify specs still reflect the project, sync specs with reality, or find unspecced features in the codebase — e.g. "audit the specs", "check if specs match the code", "are my specs still accurate", "find spec drift", "update specs to match the code", "do my gspec docs reflect reality", "check specs against the codebase", "find features that aren't spec'd", "what does the code do that we never wrote a PRD for". Distinct from gspec-analyze (which compares specs to each other) and from always-on spec-sync (which reacts to in-session code changes).
