spec

Interrogate a vague ask into a precise, backlog-ready WHAT spec — five-Why, scope/MVP lock, failure-mode enumeration, read-code-first, quantify-everything. Convergent and relentless on one decided direction. Triggers on "spec this out", "turn this into a spec", "what exactly are we building", "sharpen this ask before handoff", and when /office-hours or /brainstorm have settled the WHY but the WHAT is still fuzzy.
