Speq CLI

Query specs via the speq CLI — semantic search, feature listing, structure validation. Use before reading any spec file; every speq orchestrator and sub-agent invokes this first for spec discovery, search, or validation.

speq CLI

The CLI is installed locally and on the path. Invoke via speq.

Search-First Rule

Never read full spec files without searching first. Search narrows the target before you spend context budget.

Command Reference

Command	Purpose
`speq domain list`	List all domains
`speq feature list`	Tree view of all features
`speq feature list <domain>`	Features in a domain
`speq feature get <domain>/<feature>`	Full feature spec
`speq feature get "<domain>/<feature>/<scenario>"`	Single scenario
`speq search query "<query>"`	Semantic search
`speq feature validate`	Validate all specs
`speq feature validate <domain>/<feature>`	Validate single feature

Workflow

1. Search first
   speq search query "<relevant terms>"

2. Get specific content
   speq feature get "<domain>/<feature>/<scenario>"

3. Validate after changes
   speq feature validate

Anti-Pattern

# Wrong: Loading entire spec files
cat specs/cli/validate/spec.md

# Right: Search and get specific
speq search query "validation"
speq feature get "cli/validate/Required field missing"
