openspec-apply-change

OpenSpec changes are applied through guided step-by-step execution that fetches instructions, reads context files, and tracks iterative task implementation until completion.

Change management in this workflow infers the change name, checks status to understand the schema, and implements tasks iteratively while maintaining traceable progress throughout the modification process.

Yes, you can apply OpenSpec changes without specifying the name because the workflow infers the change name from context or auto-selects when only one active change exists.

When task requirements are unclear during change implementation, guardrails pause execution to handle blocked states and offer options to continue, archive, or update artifacts for clarification.

No dependencies are required to use this OpenSpec change automation tool, as it operates independently to guide task implementation and manage workflow status without external components.

The best way to manage blocked states is through built-in guardrails that pause execution on unclear requirements, allowing you to clarify context, update artifacts, or archive changes before proceeding.
