# comment-dev — the engineering front door
One thing to talk to. Describe the work; `comment-dev` classifies the intent and
routes to the path that fits, so you don't have to remember which `comment-*`
skill to call. It is a thin **dispatcher** — it does no delivery itself; it picks
a path and hands off.
Every route follows the same startup bias: get the simplest useful change in
front of real users, learn whether they love it, and add complexity only when
evidence or a hard invariant requires it.
> Not a Comment.io *document* skill. "Make me a comm / read this doc / edit this
> comm" is the **`comment`** skill. `comment-dev` is for *building, fixing, and
> shaping software*.
## Routing
Classify the request, state which path you're taking and why (one line), then run
that skill (read its full `SKILL.md` first — naming it here does not load it):
| The request looks like… | Route to | Why |
|---|---|---|
| A rough/unshaped idea; goal, scope, or product fit unsettled; "should we…", "what if…", "scope this", "is this worth doing" | **`comment-spec`** | Shape it into a crisp spec first; it then invokes `comment-feature`. |
| A defined feature; "build / add / implement / wire up X", clear what success is | **`comment-feature`** | Choose direct/lift topology → build bounded deltas → ship. |
| A defect/regression; "X is broken", "this throws", "stopped working", "wrong output" | **`comment-bug`** | Reproduce → failing test → fix → verify. |
| A fast, small, or exploratory chang
