You can define [DSLD|https://github.com/groovy/groovy-eclipse/wiki/DSL-Descriptors] or [GDSL|https://confluence.jetbrains.com/display/GRVY/Scripting+IDE+for+DSL+awareness] and include it with Spock so that IDE is informed that {{@Requires}} delegates to {{PreconditionContext}} within its value closure.

> If you have an annotation with a closure field like for example this in Spock:
> {code:java}
> @Retention(RetentionPolicy.RUNTIME)
> @Target({ElementType.TYPE, ElementType.METHOD})
> @ExtensionAnnotation(RequiresExtension.class)
> public @interface Requires {
>   Class<? extends Closure> value();
> }{code}
> you can use it like
> {code:java}
> @Requires({ os.windows }){code}
> But I see no way to add IDE-hints for that closure like {{@DelegatesTo(PreconditionContext.class)}} as it is restriced to parameters.
> It would be nice if you could also annotate annotation member methods (and if IDEs would then support that too).
