SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill addresses the challenge of manually tracking and implementing tasks from OpenSpec changes, automating selection, progress monitoring, and step-by-step execution to reduce errors and save development time.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Change Selection and Status Check: Automatically infers or lists changes, fetches status and instructions via CLI for clear workflow guidance.
  • Task Implementation Loop: Reads context files, implements pending tasks minimally, updates progress, and handles pauses for clarifications or blocks.
  • Use Case: In a software project, use this to apply a spec change by sequentially implementing features like adding authentication endpoints, marking each task complete as you go.

Quick Start

Begin implementing tasks for the active OpenSpec change by invoking the skill with the change name if known.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate OpenSpec task implementation for active changes?

Automate OpenSpec task implementation by selecting active changes, fetching instructions via CLI, and executing pending steps sequentially. This workflow reads context files, applies minimal implementations, and updates progress without manual intervention.

What is the best way to track OpenSpec change status during development?

Track OpenSpec change status by parsing CLI outputs to infer active changes and fetch current instructions. This mechanism provides clear workflow guidance and monitors progress as you implement each task step-by-step.

Do I need the openspec CLI to apply specs and proposals through automation?

Yes, openspec CLI integration is required to apply specs and proposals. The automation relies on CLI commands for status parsing, reading context files, and updating task progress automatically within your software development workflow.

Can I pause OpenSpec task execution if I encounter a block or need clarification?

Yes, the task implementation loop handles pauses for clarifications or blocks. When execution stops, the workflow awaits your input before resuming the minimal implementation of pending tasks and updating progress.

How does CLI-driven automation handle sequential feature implementation for OpenSpec changes?

CLI-driven automation handles sequential feature implementation by reading context files, applying minimal changes for each pending task, and marking them complete. This ensures structured, step-by-step execution for software development workflows.
