how to use /speckit.checklist

[gavinjou818]

At which stage should the checklist action be placed? I am only given one Reliability.md at a time, but the AI won't automatically confirm it. What is the correct operation for me to follow?

Hi! From my point of view, you should use checklist command after the use of specify! This is because you need to refine the specs before starting to plan, it helps to avoid the phenomenon known as "Spec-Drift", the difference between the specs and the final solution created by the agents!

I hope it could help you!

isn't that /clarify once after the spec created? @emi-dm

So what's the difference between checklist and clarify?

Clarify is used to refine specs before plan. Checklist is used before implement to asses that there is no gap in the spec / tasks (e.g. A User Story without associated tasks)
