R&D Talk | Spec-Driven Development for Agentic Engineering

As AI agents become central to the software development lifecycle, the biggest bottleneck isn't coding speed — it's the quality and clarity of context they receive. Spec-Driven Development (SDD) is a methodology that puts precise, machine-readable specifications at the heart of every stage, while at the same time helping drive the team in the right direction to maximize AI throughput. This session explores why spec is getting more attention now, but not earlier, how different SDD frameworks are approaching the challenge, and how SDD reduces ambiguity, rework, and coordination overhead in agentic workflows.

What you will learn:

1. Why the agentic SDLC demands a shift from ad-hoc prompting to specification-first development, and how context management is the real enabler of agent quality.
2. How Spec-Driven Development compares to vibe coding and plan-based approaches — and when each is appropriate.
3. How AI-assisted spec generation accelerates structured requirement capture, automated validation, and traceability across the lifecycle.
4. Real-world challenges from rolling out SDD among our customers' teams.
