Spec-driven development (SDD) is gaining traction as a crucial workflow for AI-assisted software development, but faces challenges integrating with existing organizational tools. While SDD offers benefits like versioning specs alongside code and better agent comprehension, its effectiveness is hampered when specs remain isolated in repositories. To bridge this gap, a proposed solution involves treating the repository spec as the definitive source of truth for content, while project management tools like Jira and Azure DevOps manage the execution state, such as assignments and sprint status. This approach aims to prevent the drift between spec and implementation that often occurs when manual synchronization is attempted, ensuring that AI agents and human developers work with consistent, up-to-date information.
