spec — spec mutator

Read FORMAT.md at repo root if not already loaded. Caveman skill applies to all writes here.

DISPATCH

Inspect user request and project state:

No SPEC.md at repo root AND args describe idea → NEW

No SPEC.md AND from-code in args → DISTILL

SPEC.md exists AND args start bug: → BACKPROP

SPEC.md exists AND args start amend → AMEND

SPEC.md exists, no args → ask user which mode
