wSpec Is Now a Claude Code Plugin

The first release of wSpec worked, but adopting it meant copying a pile of files into your project: the slash commands, the subagents, the hooks, and an MCP server that then had to be installed and built inside every repo. Updating meant doing it again. That’s fine for the person who wrote it and a poor deal for anyone else. This week I repackaged it as a Claude Code plugin, and the install is now three commands.

wSpec: Spec-Driven Development Workflow for Claude Code

I’d used both GitHub’s Spec Kit and Fission-AI’s OpenSpec, and each one got part of the workflow right and left another part missing. Spec Kit’s artifact vocabulary was solid but nothing enforced it once code-writing started; OpenSpec’s change lifecycle was clean but had the same gap. I saw what both had and where both were lacking, and built my own: wSpec, a spec-driven workflow for Claude Code with the enforcement layer neither one shipped. It’s now packaged as a Claude Code plugin; the story of that repackaging is its own post.
