Getting Started
The essential setup for getting the most out of DevSpec.
Core ConceptsThe building blocks of DevSpec — projects, repositories, databases, sessions, action items, and knowledge — and how they fit together.From Conversation to DeploymentSet up the full DevSpec loop: talk to Dev, let Autopilot make the changes, and watch them appear live in your product.AI WorkflowHow DevSpec closes the loop end to end — from an action item, through your coding agent and CI/CD pipeline, to a live deployment you can verify.Autopilot RunnersSet up Claude Code, Cursor, Antigravity, or Grok Build to process your staged action items.
Tips & Tricks
Power-user shortcuts and clever ways to combine features to move faster.
One-Click Handoff to Your Coding AgentJump straight from DevSpec in the browser into Claude Code (or any enabled coding agent) with a single click of the rocket icon — the work gets done locally and flows right back into DevSpec.Parallel Autopilot with Remote ControlRun several Claude Code sessions at once, hand them to DevSpec with /remote-control, then create and dispatch work from the DevSpec mobile app — by voice — so a fleet of agents builds and you test on your phone while you're away from the desk.Drive Your Coding Agent from Your PhoneKick off an action item on your machine, then monitor and steer that Claude Code session from your phone with one command — so you can keep DevSpec work moving while you're away from the desk.Continue a Session in Your Local AgentHand a live chat session to your local coding agent right from the composer — either get one answer back or brainstorm it through together — and watch the reply land in the session live.
Projects & Repositories
Manage your software projects and connect your code.
ProjectsCreate and manage software projects as the central hub for all your work.Repository IntegrationConnect repositories from GitHub, Bitbucket, GitLab, or Gitea for AI-powered code understanding.Code IndexingAutomated parsing and categorization of your codebase.Database ConnectionConnect project databases for schema-aware AI assistance.
Sessions & AI
Conversational AI sessions with deep project awareness.
Knowledge & Tracking
Track tasks and capture structured documents from your AI sessions.
Action ItemsTrack tasks and follow-ups generated from your AI sessions.GoalsSet your project goals with a vision and milestones. Goals are user-authored; DevSpec derives milestones automatically from your completed and in-progress work.ResourcesStructured documents created during AI sessions.ChangelogA timeline of verified work — only action items confirmed by a human appear here.Persona-Based ReportsAI-generated reports tailored to each team member's role and interests — from engineering velocity to executive summaries.Testing & VerificationReview, verify, and provide feedback on Autopilot-completed work before it ships.Automatic Commit TrackingDevSpec watches your commits and retroactively creates tickets, so your team gets full visibility without anyone stopping to write one.
Account & Organization
Profile, billing, and organization management.
Integrations
Connect external tools and services.
Git Provider ConnectionsConnect your GitHub, Bitbucket, GitLab, or Gitea / Forgejo account to access your repositories.MCP EndpointLet external coding tools access your DevSpec project knowledge, decisions, and conventions.Slack IntegrationConnect your Slack workspace so your team can create DevSpec sessions directly from Slack conversations.Deployment MonitoringCloses the feedback loop between Autopilot and CI/CD by monitoring deployments and automatically retrying or escalating failures.From Conversation to CodeThe full workflow from a Slack message to deployed code, without losing context.
Admin
Platform administration tools (admin access required).
Automation
Automate action item resolution with AI-powered agents.
Autopilot Setup GuideStep-by-step guide to setting up the DevSpec Autopilot from scratch — connect your project, install a runner, configure MCP, and start automating.AutopilotAutomatically implement action items using a Claude Code plugin that polls for staged work, creates branches, implements changes, runs tests, and pushes results — with built-in repository and branch validation.
Dashboard & Productivity
Tools that help you stay oriented, track your daily progress, and capture your thinking.
Daily DigestStay up to speed the moment you log in, with a personalised catch-up of everything that happened while you were away, plus a permanent daily journal you can use for standups.ScratchpadA persistent, always-on notepad on your dashboard for capturing thoughts, reminders, and rough notes — one per project.
