# Specswarm Build

> Systematic spec-driven workflow (specification→clarification→planning→tasks→implementation→validation) for feature development. Auto-executes when user clearly wants to build, create, add, implement, develop, make, construct, or set up software features, components, or functionality.

# SpecSwarm Build Workflow

Provides natural language access to `/specswarm:build` command.

## When to Invoke

Trigger this skill when the user mentions:
- Building, creating, or adding features
- Implementing or developing functionality
- Making or adding components
- Any request to build software features

**Examples:**
- "Build user authentication"
- "Create a payment system"
- "Add dashboard analytics"
- "Implement shopping cart"

## Instructions

**Confidence-Based Execution:**

1. **Detect** that user mentioned building/creating software
2. **Extract** the feature description from their message
3. **Assess confidence and execute accordingly**:

   **High Confidence (95%+)** - Auto-execute immediately:
   - Clear feature requests: "Please build a simple website", "Create user authentication with JWT", "Add dashboard analytics"
   - Action: Immediately run `/specswarm:build "feature description"`
   - Show brief notification: "🎯 Running /specswarm:build... (press Ctrl+C within 3s to cancel)"

   **Medium Confidence (70-94%)** - Ask for confirmation:
   - Less specific: "Add authentication", "Build a feature"
   - Action: Use AskUserQuestion tool with two options:
     - Option 1 (label: "Run /specswarm:build"): Use SpecSwarm's complete workflow
     - Option 2 (label: "Process normally"): Handle as regular Claude Code request

   **Low Confidence (<70%)** - Always ask:
   - Vague: "Work on the app", "Improve the code"
   - Action: Use AskUserQuestion as above

4. **If user cancels (Ctrl+C) or selects Option 2**, process normally without SpecSwarm
5. **After command completes**, STOP - do not continue with ship/merge

## What the Build Command Does

`/specswarm:build` runs complete workflow:
- Creates specification
- Asks clarifying questions
- Generates implementation plan
- Breaks down into tasks
- Implements all tasks
- Validates quality

Stops after implementation - does NOT merge/ship/deploy.

## Semantic Understanding

This skill should trigger not just on exact keywords, but semantic equivalents:

**Build equivalents**: build, create, make, develop, implement, add, construct, set up, establish, design
**Feature terms**: feature, component, functionality, module, system, page, form, interface

## Example

```
User: "Build user authentication with JWT"
