# New Spec

Spawn the `requirements-agent` with the provided brief.

## Steps

1. The brief is everything the user wrote after `/new-spec` — pass it verbatim, do not paraphrase or summarise it
2. Spawn the `requirements-agent` with the brief
3. When the agent returns, relay its full output to the user:
   - Spec file path and ID assigned
   - Number of ACs written
   - Any open questions requiring human input

## After relaying

Remind the user:
> Review `specify.md`, set `status: approved` when satisfied, then run `/design <spec-id>`.
