FORGESPEC
Architecture Before Code
Designing Reliable Systems in the Age of AI
A practical, architecture-first approach to building reliable, evolvable systems in the age of AI-assisted development.
- Specify intent clearly
- Define behavior explicitly
- Enforce invariants
- Build systems that endure
About the Book
ForgeSpec is a specification-first approach to software engineering for a world where implementation can be generated faster than systems can be understood.
The book focuses on architecture, contracts, invariants, observability, and the discipline required to keep software clear as AI-assisted tooling accelerates development.
- For software engineers
- For architects and technical leads
- For teams using LLM-assisted development
