Validate Spec

Category: General  ·  Sub-category: general-misc  ·  Last updated:
type:audit
Audit an already-implemented spec against the codebase. Walks each constraint (ARCH-N, PERF-N, KD-N, etc.) and acceptance criterion, grounds findings in file:line evidence, runs the spec.json acceptance_commands, and writes a single audit doc to docs/audits/. Use whenever the user asks to "validate a spec", "audit a spec", "check if spec is implemented", "verify the spec is done", "is this spec really done", or otherwise wants closure on spec-driven work. Read-only against the spec — produces an audit, never modifies the spec itself.

From the source SKILL.md

Audit an implemented /spec-format spec against the codebase. Walk every tagged constraint, ground each one in file:line evidence, execute the acceptance commands, and emit a single audit document. The spec itself is never modified — the audit doc is the only artifact this skill writes.

What this skill does

Validate Spec is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the general-misc sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/validate-spec/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.

When to invoke it: Use whenever the user asks to "validate a spec", "audit a spec", "check if spec is implemented", "verify the spec is done", "is this spec really done", or otherwise wants closure on spec-driven work. Read-only against the spec — produces an audit, never modifies the spec itself.

Who uses this skill

The Validate Spec Claude Code skill is built for Claude Code users and developers across all disciplines looking for general-purpose AI assistance. It's part of ClaudSkills (also referred to as Claude Skills or Claude Code Skills) — the open community-curated registry of 69,000+ SKILL.md files for Anthropic's Claude Code agent and the wider Claude ecosystem (Claude API, Claude Agent SDK).
