About

Imported from davepoon/buildwithclaude (plugins/gsd/skills/spike/SKILL.md). Install upstream with npx skills add davepoon/buildwithclaude --skill spike. Copyright stays with the author.

Two modes:

Idea mode (default) — describe an idea to spike
Frontier mode (no argument or "frontier") — analyzes existing spike landscape and proposes integration and frontier spikes

Does not require /gsd:new-project — auto-creates .planning/spikes/ if needed.

<execution_context> @${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/workflows/spike.md @${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/references/ui-brand.md </execution_context>

<runtime_note> Copilot (VS Code): Use vscode_askquestions wherever this workflow calls AskUserQuestion. </runtime_note>

Available flags:

--quick — Skip decomposition/alignment, jump straight to building. Use when you already know what to spike.
--text — Use plain-text numbered lists instead of AskUserQuestion (for non-Claude runtimes).

Use it

Copy one of these into your project. Installing also returns the manifest and these snippets.

# after Install: the listing is in your workspace's routing pool - a plan picks it for its slot
curl -s -X POST https://api.opensmartroute.ai/api/v1/route -H 'Authorization: Bearer $OSR_API_KEY' -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d '{"text": "...", "plan": true}'

Manifest

An Open Capability Manifest: the router reads it to know what this does, what it costs and when to pick it.
