openspec-apply-change

To apply OpenSpec changes, you select a named change, query its status, and read apply instructions to execute tasks sequentially. The process updates task completion in a loop until all tasks are finished, pausing on blockers to provide guided prompts.

OpenSpec change orchestration involves selecting a named change, determining its status, and announcing the active change. Progress tracking works by updating task checkboxes continuously and pausing execution when ambiguities or blockers are encountered.

Yes, you need the openspec CLI installed to automate change management workflows. The CLI is required to validate artifacts, query status, retrieve apply instructions, and handle blocked or completed states during task execution.

Context-driven implementation reads apply instructions and fetches context files to perform tasks with minimal, focused changes. This ensures updates are targeted and aware of the surrounding schema during the change application process.

When a task is blocked or completed during OpenSpec change application, the workflow pauses and provides guided prompts. It validates artifacts and proposes next steps to resolve ambiguities before continuing the task loop.

Yes, OpenSpec operates across schemas by querying status, retrieving apply instructions, reading context files, and updating task completion. It loops through these actions until all associated tasks for the named change are fully finished.
