We've all been there. You open your AI coding assistant, type a prompt, get a result, realise it missed half the requirements, rephrase, try again. Rephrase and repeat. It works (kind of) but it doesn't scale and we lose history.

What if instead of ad-hoc prompting, you could define exactly what needs to be built as a structured spec, and then let the AI agent implement it autonomously — checking off acceptance criteria as it goes?

That's the idea behind Spec-driven Development (SDD), the latest feature in DevoxxGenie v0.9.7.

DevoxxGenie has come a long way from its origins as a simple LLM chat plugin for IntelliJ IDEA. With the latest releases, the plugin has made a fundamental shift — from passive AI assistance to agentic AI capabilities. This reflects a paradigm shift in how developers interact with AI: we're moving beyond generating code snippets toward autonomous agents that can explore, reason about, and modify your codebase.
