to-spec — Reverse-Engineer Project Specification

Analyze an existing codebase and produce a structured SPEC document that captures what the project does, how it's built, and what contracts it exposes. The output is a living specification that could be used to rebuild the project from scratch or onboard new contributors.

When to Use

• You want a comprehensive understanding of an existing project
• Onboarding new team members who need a high-level overview
• Documenting a project that was built without a spec
• Comparing actual implementation against intended design
• Preparing for a rewrite or major refactor
• Auditing what a project actually does vs. what people think it does
