SpecPilot tools (2)

write = sends, deletes, buys or posts
  • specpilot_generate_specsFree

    Generates the complete SpecPilot .specs/ file set plus the matching IDE rules and slash-command files from a full answer set - identical to what the SpecPilot web chat produces for the same answers. Requires projectName and projectDescription. Returns the files to write and the steps to follow after writing them.

  • specpilot_next_questionsFree

    Returns the still-unanswered SpecPilot onboarding questions of the next incomplete step, gated by the answers supplied so far - questions that do not apply to this kind of project are omitted, and options are filtered, badged or flagged the same way the SpecPilot web chat would. Stateless: send every answer collected so far on each call. Procedure: (1) Decide whether the repository already has real source code and set `isNewBuild` accordingly - it changes which onboarding analysis is generated at the end. (2) Infer what the repo already answers rather than asking: `platforms` from the dependency manifests and layout, `languageOverride`, `ideAgent` (you are the IDE - claudecode, cursor, copilot, codex, windsurf), `handle` from git config or the origin remote, `projectName` from the package manifest or folder name, and `projectDescription` from the README only if it plainly says what the project is. (3) Call this tool with what you have; answer what the repo makes obvious and ask the developer the rest, a whole step per message. Send an empty value for an optional question the developer declines, or it will be asked again; send `todoSentinel` verbatim when they do not know yet. For `projectDescription`, sending one of the returned chip labels exactly is what infers `projectCategory` and gates every later question - free prose infers nothing. Confirm any pre-seeded value rather than accepting it silently. (4) Loop until `done` is true, then call specpilot_generate_specs and follow its `nextSteps` for where each file goes.

What its tools let an agent do: 2 read

Install SpecPilot in Claude Code, Cursor or VS Code

claude mcp add --transport http specpilot https://init.specpilot.dev/mcp
Add to Cursor

What the publisher says

From the SpecPilot repository's README, as published. We do not edit it. Read it on GitHub

SpecPilot

SpecPilot is a spec-driven development (SDD) CLI for AI coding agents like Claude Code, Cursor, and ChatGPT. It initializes, validates, and syncs a .specs/ directory so AI-assisted coding stays grounded in living requirements, architecture, and task specs instead of drifting from the codebase.

MCP server

Prefer to stay inside your editor? SpecPilot also runs as a remote MCP server, so Claude Code, Cursor or Copilot can run the whole onboarding itself - answering what it can infer from your repo and asking you only the rest.

claude mcp add --transport http specpilot https://init.specpilot.dev/mcp

Then ask your agent: "Onboard this project with SpecPilot".

For Cursor, VS Code and other clients, add it as an HTTP (streamable) server:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "specpilot": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://init.specpilot.dev/mcp"
    }
  }
}

No install, no API key. Full setup notes:

Quick Start

# Install globally
npm install -g specpilot

# Create a new project
specpilot init my-project --lang typescript --framework react

# Add specs to existing project
cd existing-project
specpilot add-specs

# Validate specifications
specpilot validate

🚀 Next Steps to Populate Your Specs with AI

After creating a project, follow these steps to populate your specifications using AI:

  1. Open the generated guide: Check .specs/README.md for full guidance
  2. Copy the onboarding prompt: Use the prompt from .specs/development/onboarding.md
  3. Paste into your AI agent: ChatGPT, Claude, or other AI assistants
  4. Review generated spec files: Examine the AI-generated requirements and architecture

This AI-assisted approach ensures comprehensive, high-quality specifications tailored to your project needs.

Commands

Tip — command aliases: All commands have a short alias you can use instead of the full name.

init → i  ·  validate → v  ·  migrate → m  ·  list → ls  ·  refine → ref  ·  archive → ar  ·  add-specs → add  ·  backfill → bf

Example: specpilot i my-app is identical to specpilot init my-app.

SpecPilot: common questions

Is SpecPilot MCP server safe?
Yes, by our scan: it is graded A (91/100). Read the SpecPilot safety report
How do I install SpecPilot?
It runs remotely at init.specpilot.dev. Add it to Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code or Claude Desktop with the snippets above, or call it through the mcp.market gateway without installing anything.
Does SpecPilot need an API key?
Not as far as the registry entry and our scan can tell: no credentials are declared or required.
Is SpecPilot maintained?
The last commit was 32 days ago (2026-10-03). The latest release is v1.0.0.
Is SpecPilot up?
100% of our last 28 checks got an answer. We check remote servers about four times a day.
What can I use instead of SpecPilot?
Servers from other publishers that do the same job: Serena MCP: the IDE for your agent MCP server, Figma Context MCP server and PaperBanana MCP server.
How does SpecPilot compare with other AI and agents MCP servers?
safety score 91/100 (higher than 88% of 4,460 AI and agents servers); tools 2 (the typical AI and agents server has 6); tools that change things 0% (typical: 0%. Fewer write tools means less an agent can break). Full comparison.
