Developer builds tool to enforce discipline in spec-driven development
A developer created a tool after a failed attempt at spec-driven development for a multiplayer guitar tab app. The project generated 16 feature specs but suffered from inconsistent rigor, contradictory contracts, and untestable criteria. The resulting tool aims to prevent such drift by enforcing decision-locking before artifact generation.

The story is less about a finished product and more about a cautionary tale of process failure, but the tool itself could be useful for teams struggling with spec discipline.
