Shared Infrastructure

Overview

Provides common patterns, templates, and infrastructure modules used across all spec-kit commands and skills. This skill exists to reduce duplication and maintain consistency in specification-driven development workflows.

Purpose

This skill consolidates reusable components:

• Technology-specific patterns (ignore files, tooling configurations)
• Quality validation dimensions for requirements
• Artifact structure documentation (spec.md, plan.md, tasks.md, checklists)

Modules

tech-stack-patterns.md

Technology-specific patterns for common stacks and tools:

• Language-specific ignore patterns (Node.js, Python, Rust, Go, Java, C#)
• Common tool configurations (Docker, ESLint, Prettier, Terraform)
• Universal exclusions (.DS_Store, .vscode, .idea)

checklist-dimensions.md

Quality validation dimensions for requirement testing:

• Completeness, Clarity, Consistency
• Measurability, Coverage, Edge Cases
• Non-Functional Requirements
• How to write "unit tests for requirements"

artifact-structure.md

Spec-kit artifact organization and purpose:

• spec.md structure and role
• plan.md structure and role
• tasks.md structure and role
• checklists/ directory organization
• .specify/ feature directory layout

Usage

This skill is automatically loaded by speckit-orchestrator and referenced by other spec-kit skills. It should not be loaded directly by commands.
