+=============
+Command Specs
+=============
+
+Specifications for new commands, objects and actions are listed below.
+These specifications have not been implemented. See
+:doc:`Command List <../command-list>` for implemented commands and
+:doc:`Command Structure <../commands>` for implemented objects and actions.
+
+It is optional to propose a specifications patch for new commands,
+objects and actions here before submitting the implementation. Once your
+specifications patch merges then you may proceed with the implementation.
+Your implementation patches should move applicable portions of the
+specifications patch to the official :doc:`Command List <../command-list>`
+and :doc:`Command Structure <../commands>` documentation.
+
+Objects Specs
+-------------
+
+Add specifications for new objects based on the ``example`` object.
+
+* ``example``: (**example API name**) example object description
+
+Actions Specs
+-------------
+
+Add specifications for new actions based on the ``example`` action.
+
+* ``example`` - example action description
+
+Commands Specs
+--------------
+
+Add specifications for new commands based on the commands for the
+``example`` object. The ``example`` commands are not intended to
+be a complete template for new commands since other actions, options
+and/or arguments may be used.
