description: Specific is an infrastructure-as-code platform built for coding agents, positioned as "AWS for coding agents."
  Any coding agent (Claude Code, Cursor, Codex) defines its whole system in a single specific.hcl file — services, managed
  Postgres, S3-compatible object storage, Redis, real-time Postgres sync (powered by Electric), Temporal workflows, crons,
  secrets, volumes, custom domains, preview environments and environments — then runs it locally with `specific dev` and ships
  it to production with `specific deploy`. Everything is reached through the Specific CLI and a hosted docs MCP server rather
  than proprietary SDKs, so agents can build backends from natural-language prompts and deploy production infrastructure in
  minutes.
