Raaghu Spec Kit
Raaghu Spec Kit brings specification-driven development into Azure DevOps. PMs, BAs, and QAs can generate, review, and manage structured specs, delivery plans, task breakdowns, and quality checklists — then create and refine Azure Boards work items — all from a guided AI workspace inside your project.
Works with Azure DevOps Services and Azure DevOps Server (on-premises).
For setup instructions, feature guides, tutorials, troubleshooting, and release notes, see the Raaghu Spec Kit documentation.

Workspace — Five Tabs, One Flow
The left workspace is organized into five tabs so teams can move from intelligence → action → backlog → documents → audit:
| Tab |
Purpose |
| Dashboard |
Project intelligence — progress, spec readiness, traceability, sprint health, risks, and deploy readiness |
| Workflows |
Curated AI actions by delivery phase — pick a capability and start a guided chat |
| Visual |
Interactive Epic → Feature → User Story → Task hierarchy with scan, pan, and zoom |
| Intake |
Analyze BRD/PRD and project docs from the wiki; extract requirements and open questions |
| Activity |
Audit trail of Spec Kit work-item creates and updates by day, week, or month |
Dashboard — Project Intelligence
The Dashboard gives PMs a live view of delivery health grounded in Azure Boards and Spec Kit artifacts:
- Overall Progress — completion across stories and tasks
- Spec Readiness — gaps in acceptance criteria, testability, and related dimensions
- Traceability — how well work items stay linked through the hierarchy
- Sprint Health — Healthy / Watch / At Risk for the current iteration
- Review Approval, Test Coverage, Open Risks, and Deploy Readiness
- Artifact progress and specification readiness panels with drill-down into Boards items
- Lifecycle progress across the Spec Kit delivery pipeline
Use filters and KPI drill-downs to jump from a metric to the work items that need attention.
Workflows — Guided AI Actions
The Workflows tab is your command center — AI-powered actions organized by delivery phase. Select any action to start a guided conversation in the chat panel. Search workflows or browse by phase.
| Phase |
What You Can Do |
| Project Setup & Governance |
Create project foundation from constitution, update constitution from linked artifacts, publish scope boundaries to Wiki, generate delivery checklist (DoR / DoD), generate compliance & security guardrails, generate audit traceability report |
| Backlog Creation |
Generate epics from linked artifacts, split epics into features, generate stories from selected feature, generate stories from linked artifacts, generate intake summary from BRD/PRD, link artifacts to selected work item |
| Backlog Refinement |
Refine selected stories, standardize acceptance criteria, detect missing requirements, attach NFRs to stories, detect duplicates or overlaps, highlight unclear or risky stories |
| Sprint Planning & Breakdown |
Generate sprint goal from selected items, generate dev tasks from selected stories, estimate tasks from plan, identify cross-team dependencies, run readiness check (DoR validation) |
| Execution Support |
Generate technical plan for selected feature, refine tasks into implementation steps, generate test cases from selected stories, convert bug to linked dev task, track work items status from implementation progress |
| Quality & Validation |
Generate test strategy for selected epic, generate negative / edge test cases, generate test data matrix, validate acceptance criteria completeness, generate UAT checklist |
| Release & DevOps |
Generate CI pipeline checklist from constitution, generate release gates from compliance rules, generate runbooks (deploy / rollback), generate release notes from completed work items, publish release notes to Wiki |
| Change Management |
Detect scope drift from latest artifacts, highlight changes since last PRD version, draft change request with impact analysis, mark items requiring approval, generate stakeholder approval checklist |
Visual — Work Item Hierarchy
The Visual tab shows your Azure Boards hierarchy as an interactive chart — Epics, Features, User Stories, and Tasks — with drag-to-pan navigation, zoom, scan, and one-click child generation from Spec Kit artifacts.
- Tree visualization — connected cards with Azure DevOps icons and status badges
- Scan — discover and reconcile Spec Kit–linked work items in the project
- One-click creation — generate child items from wiki specs (e.g. Epic → Features & Stories)
- Pan & zoom — navigate large backlogs comfortably
- Process templates — Agile, Scrum, CMMI, and Basic
Intake — Documents to Backlog
The Intake tab turns project documents into structured understanding:
- Place BRDs, PRDs, and related docs under Spec Kit/Intake in your project wiki
- Spec Kit analyzes each document for scope, requirements, risks, assumptions, and open questions
- Link findings to Azure Boards artifacts and continue refinement in chat or Workflows
- Track remaining open questions and risks until they are resolved
Ideal for onboarding existing product docs before /speckit.specify and backlog creation.
Activity Feed
The Activity tab is a real-time audit trail of what Raaghu Spec Kit has done in your project. Browse by Day, Week, or Month, and search across all activity.
- Date navigation — step forward or backward by day, week, or month
- Per-user grouping — see who generated or updated what
- Work item audit trail — Epics, Features, User Stories, and Tasks with ID, title, and timestamp
- Change labels — tagged entries (e.g. Updated / Refined) for quick scanning
- Search — filter by keyword
Key Features
Conversational AI Chat
Natural-language interface for context-aware specification engineering. Ask questions, run /speckit.* commands, and generate structured deliverables — all within Azure DevOps.
Repository-Aware Context
Automatically scans your wiki file tree and repository sources to give the AI project context — README, existing specs, constitution, and structure.
Wiki-Based Storage
Built on GitHub Spec Kit. Spec Kit artifacts (constitution, spec, plan, tasks, checklists, and related files) are saved to your Azure DevOps Wiki with full version history — no Git commits required for Spec Kit content.
Flexible AI — BYOK or Raaghu Hosted AI
Use your own AI provider, or switch on Raaghu-hosted AI for the whole organization.
| Option |
How it works |
| Bring Your Own Key (BYOK) |
Configure Azure OpenAI, OpenAI, or Anthropic Claude in Project Settings or Organization Settings. Requests go from the browser to your provider. |
| Raaghu AI (hosted) |
Enable from AI Settings. Spec Kit uses organization-hosted models and deducts from your credit balance. When on, Raaghu AI overrides project Custom BYOK. |
In-Extension Settings
Open Settings from the Spec Kit project hub:
| Tab |
What you configure |
| Project Settings |
Provider, API key, model, and endpoint for this project. Use Default to inherit the org LLM config, or Custom to override. Remap /speckit.* commands if needed. |
| Organization Settings |
Shared LLM configs for the organization (title, provider, model, endpoint, key, expiration) plus org-level command mappings that projects can inherit. |
| AI Settings |
Turn Raaghu AI on or off, pick the hosted model, view credit balance, and top up credits. |
My Usage
Track your personal AI spend from the extension header:
- Spend for a selected date range
- Your monthly limit (set by an organization admin, or no limit)

Spec Kit Workflow
Raaghu Spec Kit follows a structured specification workflow using slash commands:
Define Project Standards (/speckit.constitution)
Establish constitutional principles. The AI generates a constitution that guides later specs and keeps the project consistent.
Create Specification (/speckit.specify)
Create or update feature specifications with structured sections, acceptance criteria, and a quality checklist.
Clarify Requirements (/speckit.clarify)
Identify gaps and ambiguities, ask targeted clarification questions, and fold answers back into the specification.
Create Implementation Plan (/speckit.plan)
Generate delivery and technical plans — including research, data model, quickstart, and API contract artifacts where applicable.
Generate Implementation Tasks (/speckit.tasks)
Produce phase-based task breakdowns with task IDs, parallel markers, and user-story links — ready to sync with Azure Boards.
Analyze Requirements and Plan (/speckit.analyze)
Cross-check specs, plans, and tasks for duplication, ambiguity, underspecification, and coverage gaps. Findings are severity-rated (Critical, High, Medium, Low) with remediation guidance.
Run Readiness Checklist (/speckit.checklist)
Generate domain-specific quality checklists (UX, API, Security, and more) — “unit tests for requirements.”
Converge Implementation (/speckit.converge)
After developers push code, assess the selected repository branch against the feature’s wiki artifacts (spec, plan, tasks, constitution). Remaining work is appended to tasks.md. Converge does not generate or commit application code.
File Management
- Generate files — AI creates structured Spec Kit artifacts (
spec, plan, tasks, and related pages)
- Edit view — review AI-generated changes before saving
- Keep — save generated content to the wiki
- Attach context — attach wiki pages, repo files, or work items to the conversation
Chat History
Persistent, project-scoped chat sessions let you resume any conversation:
- Browse sessions — all past conversations for the current project
- Resume anytime — reopen with full message context
- Rename sessions — descriptive names for easy navigation
- Delete sessions — remove one session or clear history
- New chat — start fresh without losing prior sessions
