openspec-apply-change

Spec-driven development implementation requires reading change status and instructions, then executing tasks sequentially. This Skill selects the active OpenSpec change, loads artifact context, and tracks task-by-task progress while pausing for ambiguity or blockers.

OpenSpec change management is a spec-driven workflow tracking implementation progress task by task. It uses a CLI to select active changes, load apply instructions, validate schemas, and update completion status for structured development.

Yes, executing change tasks requires the openspec CLI. The Skill relies on change-scoped CLI commands to read status, load instructions, list changes, run validation, and update task completion checkboxes.

Continuing an in-progress OpenSpec change involves selecting the active change, disambiguating if multiple exist, reading current status, and executing the next pending task. The Skill loads artifact context and matches the active schema automatically.

When requirements are unclear during change implementation, the Skill pauses execution to prevent errors. It stops task-by-task progress upon detecting blockers or ambiguity, ensuring implementation proceeds only when the path is clear.

When multiple active OpenSpec changes exist, task execution performs change selection and disambiguation. It identifies the correct change context, loads specific status and instructions, and ensures implementation targets only the intended change.
