Create Task Spec
Use when a feature idea needs to become an exact, agreed specification before anyone builds it — "spec this out", "create a task spec", "turn this idea into requirements", "what exactly should we build". Interrogates the person for what they know instead of proposing content for them to approve, using Gherkin's own grammar to decide which questions must be asked and when the document is complete. Emits a .feature behavioural contract plus a spec.json manifest that the task skill consumes.
