Spec-first agentic development is specification-driven development for AI coding agents: reviewed specs, isolated worktrees, gated commits.
agentlanguages.dev — Programming languages designed for AI agents to write
A community-edited catalogue of programming languages designed for AI agents to author code, organised around three philosophical camps: syntactic, verification, and orchestration.

Agent Skills
AI coding agents take the shortest path to done, which usually means skipping the specs, tests, and reviews that make software reliable at scale. Agent Skill...

Open Agent Spec (Agent Spec) is a framework-agnostic declarative language for defining agentic systems. It defines building blocks for standalone agents and structured agentic workflows as well as common ways of composing them into multi-agent systems.

Welcome to the complete guide for building AI coding assistants that actually work in production. This comprehensive three-book series takes you from fundamental concepts to implementing enterprise-ready collaborative systems.
A sufficiently detailed spec is code
Specifications do not address the limitations of agentic coding
Essential Reading for Agentic Engineers - July 2025 | Peter Steinberger
Fresh insights on AI-assisted development: practical experiences with Claude Code and the evolving landscape of full-breadth developers in the age of AI

Agentic Engineering Management
To what extent AI is OK to use in software development might be debated, but in general, the idea is not a controversial one anymore. The debate rather moved on from code completion and simple PR summarizations to Agentic Engineering, where an execution loop allows an AI Agent to function

The 8 Levels of Agentic Engineering — Bassim Eledath
AI's coding ability is outpacing our ability to wield it effectively. That gap closes in levels — 8 of them. Here's the progression from tab complete to autonomous agent teams.
