GitHub toolkit for spec-driven development: the specify CLI adds agent commands and skills to a project, from principles to implementation
CLI tools
A CLI is a command-line utility that helps you work with agents: it installs and runs skills, gathers context and automates routine work. This section collects tools with real commands from their docs, a clear purpose and a risk level.
