Show HN: Replacing spec-driven development with just facts (opens in new tab)

I had a lot of issues with spec-driven approaches, agents are too readily producing fluff, large projects have so many specs agents start making mistakes maintaining them. There's a constant consistency tax.

In the end every spec is just a bunch of facts, so I decided to leave that and throw away everything else while making it friendlier for agentic use.

I would be happy to see some prove that this works. A project that started and went go. How a friendlier specification looks like and why agents understand it better.

how does a spec differ from a list of facts? i like the idea, just want to understand more.
