# Create GitHub Actions Workflow Specification

Create a comprehensive specification for the GitHub Actions workflow: `${input:WorkflowFile}`.

This specification serves as a specification for the workflow's behavior, requirements, and constraints. It must be implementation-agnostic, focusing on **what** the workflow accomplishes rather than **how** it's implemented.

## AI-Optimized Requirements

- **Token Efficiency**: Use concise language without sacrificing clarity
- **Structured Data**: Leverage tables, lists, and diagrams for dense information
- **Semantic Clarity**: Use precise terminology consistently throughout
- **Implementation Abstraction**: Avoid specific syntax, commands, or tool versions
- **Maintainability**: Design for easy updates as workflow evolves

## Specification Template

Save as: `/spec/spec-process-cicd-[workflow-name].md`

```md

title: CI/CD Workflow Specification - [Workflow Name]
version: 1.0
date_created: [YYYY-MM-DD]
last_updated: [YYYY-MM-DD]
owner: DevOps Team
tags: [process, cicd, github-actions, automation, [domain-specific-tags]]

## Workflow Overview

**Purpose**: [One sentence describing workflow's primary goal]
**Trigger Events**: [List trigger conditions]
**Target Environments**: [Environment scope]

## Jobs & Dependencies

| Job Name | Purpose | Dependencies | Execution Context |
|----------|---------|--------------|-------------------|
| job-1 | [Purpose] | [Prerequisites] | [Runner/Environment] |
| job-2 | [Purpose] | job-1 | [Runner/Environment] |

## Requirements Matrix

### Functional Requirements
| ID | Requirement | Priority | Acceptance Criteria |
|----|-------------|----------|-------------------|
| REQ-001 | [Requirement] | High | [Testable criteria] |
| REQ-002 | [Requirement] | Medium | [Testable criteria] |

### Security Requirements
| ID | Requirement | Implementation Constraint |
|----|-------------|---------------------------|
| SEC-001 | [Security requirement] | [Constraint description] |

### Performance Requirements
| ID | Metric | Target | Measurement Method |
|----|-------|--------|-------------------|
| PERF-001 | [Metric] | [Target value] | [How measured] |

## Input/Output Contracts

### Inputs

```yaml
# Environment Variables
ENV_VAR_1: string  # Purpose: [description]
ENV_VAR_2: secret  # Purpose: [description]

# Repository Triggers

branches: [list of branch patterns]
```

### Outputs

```yaml

- **Concurrency**: [Parallel execution limits]
- **Resource Limits**: [Memory/CPU constraints]

### Environmental Constraints

- **Runner Requirements**: [OS/hardware needs]
- **Network Access**: [External connectivity needs]
- **Permissions**: [Required access levels]
