Spec First
Intent, constraints, design decisions, and acceptance criteria become a reviewable source of truth.
IntentConstraintsAcceptanceThree method threads
The site is organized by methodology, not by tool commands. OpenSpec provides the source of truth, Compound provides the execution and learning discipline, and AISEE connects them into working flows.
Spec First
Turn intent, scope, behavior change, design judgment, and acceptance criteria into reviewable artifacts.
Harness Better
Put AI inside explicit agents, skills, MCP tools, hooks, schemas, and workflows.
Compound Knowledge
Keep templates, cases, schemas, retrospectives, and fixes available for the next change.
From problem to reusable knowledge
The same loop should be visible in each serious AI engineering task: define, specify, prepare context, execute, verify, then preserve what worked.
Frame the problem
Clarify goal, user, constraint, non-goal, and acceptance direction.
Model the spec
Make scope, behavior, and decisions inspectable before execution starts.
Prepare context
Collect project facts, memory, skills, source maps, and tool boundaries.
Execute the work
Let AI act inside explicit tasks, permissions, and workflow steps.
Verify the result
Use tests, review, checks, and guards to decide whether work can move on.
Compound knowledge
Keep patterns, fixes, templates, and cases available for the next change.

01
New to AI Coding
Build the concepts, local setup, and agent basics before entering the methodology layer.
02
Understand the shift
See what changes when AI participates in requirements, design, coding, review, and knowledge reuse.
03
Manage changes with specs
Use OpenSpec to make scope, behavior, decisions, and acceptance criteria reviewable.
04
Run agent work reliably
Use Compound Engineering to plan, execute, review, debug, and preserve reusable knowledge.
05
Adopt the AISEE workflow
Connect AISEE Plugin, OpenSpec, and Compound Engineering into an end-to-end practice.

Open collaboration and source notes
This site is maintained as an independent practice and methodology wiki. It is not the official OpenSpec or Compound documentation.
Source on GitHub
Documentation source is hosted in GitHub and pages can provide edit entries.
Open source projects
Team-owned projects are separated from external recommended resources.
Open contribution
Contributions can be fixes, cases, workflow templates, skills, or schemas.
Clear attribution
The site documents independent practice, interpretation, and methodology.
