develop-spike-summary
FeaturedDocuments the results of a completed technical or design spike, capturing the original question, approach, evidence-backed findings, and a clear proceed-or-not recommendation so the team does not re-litigate the exploration. Use once a time-boxed investigation has concluded. For the architecture decision the spike informs, use develop-adr instead; for research-based exploration, use discover-interview-synthesis.

rig-spike
Run a time-boxed research spike to answer an open technical question or de-risk an approach BEFORE committing to implementation. Produces written findings + a recommendation (and optionally a throwaway prototype), not production code. Use when the team needs to evaluate feasibility, compare options, or reduce uncertainty before a feature is planned. Triggers on: 'spike', 'research spike', 'investigate', 'evaluate feasibility', 'de-risk', 'proof of concept', 'POC', 'compare options', 'can we', 'what would it take'.
spike
Use when the user wants to feel out an idea before committing to a real build — "spike this out", "try it", "is this even possible?", "compare A vs B". Throwaway experiments that decompose into 2-5 feasibility questions, build minimal observable prototypes, and return VALIDATED / PARTIAL / INVALIDATED verdicts. Disposable by design. Adapted from Hermes Agent / GSD.
spike
WHAT - Produce spike and research findings using the spike template; captures purpose, findings, implementation strategy, risks, tradeoffs, open questions, and references.
