About this skill
What does the spec-writing skill do?

Execute this skill should be used when the user asks about "writing specs", "specs.md format", "how to write specifications", "sprint requirements", "testing configuration", "scope definition", or needs guidance on creating effective sprint specifications for agentic development. Use when appropriate context detected. Trigger with relevant phrases based on skill purpose. '

How do I install it?

Run `npx skills add jeremylongshore/claude-code-plugins-plus-skills --skill spec-writing --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.

Where does this skill come from?

From jeremylongshore/claude-code-plugins-plus-skills, a repository with 2,596 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.

Is a popular skill a good skill?

Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
