OpenSpec Reverse Engineering

Analyze existing codebases and convert discovered features into OpenSpec specification format, including proper requirement structure, scenarios, and optional Azure DevOps work item mapping.

When to Use

• Converting legacy code to spec-driven development
• Documenting existing features in OpenSpec format
• Creating specs from AI skills (SKILL.md files)
• Establishing ADO work item hierarchy from codebase features

Discovery Phase

1. Identify Scope

Ask the user:

• Analyze entire repo or specific directory?
• Looking for specific feature areas?
• Include AI skills (.github/skills/, .agents/skills/, .claude/skills/)?
