> spec-gate — pedrammadani-spec-gate. Use this tool when you need to ensure AI agents receive well-defined requests and track specification gaps. It solves the problem of underspecified requests by refusing to proceed and logging missing details, promoting clearer communication and task definition. The spec-gate tool takes in requests, checks for completeness, and outputs a record of missing specifications, integrating with git for version control.
