- Expressive workflow primitives. Create single, multi-agent, or hierarchical flows with low-level building blocks.
- Persistent memory stores. Maintain conversation history and context across sessions.
- Token-by-token streaming. Stream agent reasoning and actions in real time for better UX.
- Model-agnostic runtime. Run agents with any LLM provider using high-level or fine-grained APIs.
- Open-source MIT license. Free to use and modify without licensing fees.
SuperSpecs features
- Spec-fit for context window. Specs are written to fit a fresh 200k-token window, avoiding reliance on prior chat history.
- TDD without exceptions. Enforces RED-before-GREEN; failing code is deleted until tests pass.
- Persistent wiki memory. After each shipped feature, knowledge is distilled into an interlinked wiki for future sessions.
- Parallel subagent execution. Runs up to five agents in parallel, each with a clean context and the same spec.
- Grill before build. A stress-test interview validates specs against the wiki and techstack before execution.
- Universal agent support. Works with Claude Code, Cursor, OpenCode, Copilot, Codex and Gemini CLI via a single install.
