Tasks Spec Update

Specification Update Workflow

When to Use This Skill

• Syncing specs with implementation
• Branch comparison analysis
• Post-implementation documentation update
• Feature spec verification

Pre-Flight Checklist

• Identify specification files to update
• Determine implementation changes
• Compare current state vs documented state
• Plan update strategy

Phase 1: Change Discovery

Git-Based Discovery

# Compare branches
git diff main..feature-branch --name-only

# Get detailed diff
git diff main..feature-branch

# List commits with messages
git log main..feature-branch --oneline

Pattern-Based Discovery

# Find all spec files
find . -name "*.spec.md" -o -name "*-specification.md"

# Cross-reference specs with code
grep -r "SaveEmployee" --include="*.md"  # In specs
grep -r "SaveEmployee" --include="*.cs"  # In code

Phase 2: Gap Analysis

Create Analysis Document

# Specification Gap Analysis

## Implementation Status

| Component                | Specified | Implemented | Gap                    |
| ------------------------ | --------- | ----------- | ---------------------- |
| Entity: Employee         | Yes       | Yes         | None                   |
| Command: SaveEmployee    | Yes       | Yes         | Missing validation doc |
| Event: OnEmployeeCreated | No        | Yes         | Not in spec            |

## New Implementations (Not in Spec)
1. `BulkUpdateEmployeeCommand` - Added in PR #123

## Spec Items Not Implemented
1. `EmployeeArchiveCommand` - Deferred to Phase 2

Phase 3: Specification Update

Update Checklist

• Update entity property list
• Add new commands/queries
• Update validation rules
• Document side effects
• Add error codes
• Document new filters
• Update response schema
• List event handlers
• Describe cross-service effects
• Add new API endpoints
• Document auth requirements

Phase 4: Verification

Cross-Reference Check

# Verify all commands are documented
grep -r "class.*Command" --include="*.cs" -l
# Cross-check against specs
grep -r "Command" docs/specifications/*.md

Verification Checklist

• All implementation changes identified
• Gap analysis completed
• Specifications updated
• Cross-references verified
• Version numbers updated
• Change log updated

IMPORTANT Task Planning Notes (MUST FOLLOW)

• Always plan and break work into many small todo tasks
• Always add a final review todo task to verify work quality and identify fixes/enhancements
