Add comprehensive support for Kilo Code as a new AI assistant option in Spec Kit. This enables users to bootstrap spec-driven development projects with Kilo Code integration, maintaining the same structured workflow as other AI assistants. Changes: - CLI: Add 'kilocode' option to --ai parameter with proper validation - Core: Implement generate_kilocode_modes_from_templates() function that converts existing command templates to Kilo Code JSON format (.kilocodemodes file) - Integration: Add Kilo Code mode generation to init workflow alongside existing AI assistant integrations (Cursor, etc.) - UI: Update help text and next steps instructions for Kilo Code users - Release: Include Kilo Code template variants (sh/ps) in GitHub release workflow - Docs: Update README with Kilo Code examples and prerequisites The implementation dynamically generates custom modes for /specify, /plan, and /tasks commands with proper role definitions and custom instructions derived from existing templates. Users can now run 'specify init --ai kilocode' to create projects with full Kilo Code integration. Files modified: - src/specify_cli/__init__.py: Core implementation and UI updates - README.md: Documentation and examples - .github/workflows/release.yml: Release process updates All changes maintain backward compatibility and follow existing patterns.

@shahrukhkhan489 omg thank you thank you thank you. I spun for hours trying to get ChatGPT-5 to translate project notes into proper format for spec / plan and it just could not understand the assignment 😆 I got as far as potentially working mode conversions but after going at this for hours I thought maybe, if im super lucky, someone else who's not as much of a newbie to all this may have already bridged this gap, and to my gleeful delight, here it is. that will definitely save me another 12 hours of cognitive load lol |
