Your AI has rules. SpecLock makes them unbreakable.

New: npx speclock protect

Zero-config Guardian Mode — reads your existing AI rule files and makes them enforceable. One command, no flags, no API key needed.

What it does:

  1. Discovers .cursorrules, CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md, copilot-instructions.md, .windsurfrules, GEMINI.md, .aider.conf.yml
  2. Extracts enforceable constraints using heuristic pattern matching (NEVER/ALWAYS/MUST/DO NOT)
  3. Adds them as SpecLock locks (deduplicates against existing)
  4. Installs a pre-commit hook (blocks commits that violate rules)
  5. Syncs rules to all other AI tools (without overwriting source files)

Why this matters: 39K developers starred awesome-cursorrules. 60K+ projects use AGENTS.md. But these are just suggestions — the AI can ignore every
line. SpecLock is the enforcement layer that makes them laws.
