Feature Specs
Specs for kandev product features, grouped by umbrella. Each spec describes a user-invocable capability and is the source of truth for "is this feature done?"
The bar: an agent given only a spec (no source code) should be able to either reimplement the feature or test the existing system for conformance. See .agents/skills/spec/SKILL.md for the workflow and template.
Status: draft (being written) · approved (accepted design, ready to build) · building (in active development) · shipped (implemented, spec matches code) · archived (deprecated).
needs-upgrade in a spec's frontmatter flags template sections that the original sources did not cover and should be filled in from code (Data model, API surface, State machine, Permissions, Failure modes, Persistence guarantees). All office specs have been brought to the implementability bar; this flag is only used for newly-drafted specs that need a code-driven fill-in pass.

Standalone
Conventions
- Spec layout. Umbrella specs live as flat
.mdfiles under the umbrella directory (docs/specs/office/agents.md). Standalone specs use a folder (docs/specs/improve-kandev/spec.md). - Plans are not specs. Implementation plans are committed under
docs/plans/<feature>/with individual sibling task files namedtask-<NN>-<short-slug>.md. Specs are the durable requirements; plans and task files are implementation records for the current buildout. - Bug fixes are not specs. Bugs produce a regression test plus an ADR if they encoded a new convention. See
/fixskill. - Architecture decisions are not specs. ADRs live under
docs/decisions/. See/record decision.
