I think you're on the right track, personally. We've had a macro similar to that which we've been using for a handful of months. Just this week, I rewrote it using the defn specs from clojure.specs.alpha to support all of the forms which defn supports, including multiple arities with different specs for each. The goal is to add the macro to orchestra, as a tool to help encourage spec'ing all functions.
A lot of people are separating their specs from their functions and can make some arguments for why it should be done. For my team, in practice, it's been much easier to keep them as close as possible to their functions. This helps minimize time spent maintaining them, ensures that they don't fall out of date, and encourages their use, as you've demonstrated, by inlining them into the typical defn-like environment.
