Automating OpenSpec change management involves orchestrating change selection, status checks, and task execution end-to-end. The workflow guides you through selecting a change, fetching status, reading context files, implementing tasks, and updating checkboxes until completion.

An OpenSpec change workflow is an automated process that drives implementation by reading apply outputs. It handles blocked, all_done, and ongoing states by retrieving apply instructions, presenting guidance for next steps, and iteratively implementing tasks.

To apply an OpenSpec change without an explicit name, the assistant infers the target change from the current context. Once inferred, it proceeds to validate the change, fetch its status, and obtain the necessary implementation instructions.

Yes, CLI task automation can iteratively implement tasks and update task checkboxes. It reads context files, displays progress, executes the implementation, and marks checkboxes until the OpenSpec change is fully applied.

When an OpenSpec change status is blocked, the workflow retrieves apply instructions and context files to present specific guidance for next steps. You must resolve the block before proceeding with task implementation and checkbox updates.

No external dependencies are required to run the OpenSpec apply change workflow. It operates independently to select changes, fetch status, read context files, and implement tasks until the change lifecycle is complete.
