Specling

Write living specifications and use them to orchestrate your coding agents.

Install

Specling is an Agent Plugin. You can install it with the AgentPlugins CLI:

npx @agentplugins/cli add https://github.com/dimes/specling

Choose your coding agent and installation scope when prompted.

You can also configure the GitHub repository directly in your agent.

codex plugin marketplace add dimes/specling
codex plugin add specling@specling

claude plugin marketplace add dimes/specling
claude plugin install specling@specling

Add Specling to the packages array in .pi/settings.json for the current project, or ~/.pi/agent/settings.json for all projects:

{
  "packages": ["git:github.com/dimes/specling"]
}

Add Specling to the plugins array in opencode.json:

{
  "$schema": "https://opencode.ai/config.json",
  "plugins": ["github:dimes/specling"]
}

Restart or reload the agent after changing its plugin configuration.

$specling Implement the changes in docs/spec.md

You can also mention the skill naturally, for example: “Use specling to implement the changes in docs/spec.md.”

/specling:specling Implement the changes in docs/spec.md

If your Claude Code installation exposes the skill without a plugin namespace, use /specling instead.

Use the specling skill to implement the changes in docs/spec.md.
