In Quest, Code with Spec is the scenario where Quest aligns on scope, produces a structured Spec, lets you review it, then executes against it. This is the default path for features that need traceable requirements and acceptance criteria.

​
Workflow

1

Requirement clarification

After inputting your task, Quest may ask clarifying questions (in multiple-choice format):
  • Recommend: Let Quest automatically select default answers
  • Continue: Manually select and continue
  • Skip: Skip questions and proceed with the conversation
2

Generate Spec

Quest generates a structured Spec document:
  • Requirement description
  • Design plan
  • Task breakdown
  • Acceptance criteria
The Spec is displayed in the Spec Tab in the output area, with streaming output and download support.
3

Review Spec

  • View the complete document in the Spec Tab on the right
  • Modify Spec through conversation (can adjust anytime before clicking Run)
  • Click Run Spec when satisfied to begin execution
4

Execute & monitor

  • To-do List: Real-time task progress in the conversation area
  • Changed Files: View code changes in the output area
  • Add requirements mid-task: Send new requirements in the input box anytime — Quest adjusts the plan
5

Review results

After execution completes:
  • Accept (Local): Apply all changes to the workspace
  • Reject (Local): Discard all changes
  • Apply (Worktree): Merge to main branch
  • Create PR (Remote): Create a Pull Request
Scenario is fixed after a task starts — pick Code with Spec (or another scenario) before execution begins.
