openspec-apply-change

To automate task execution for OpenSpec changes, use a CLI command to select a specific change, retrieve its task list, and execute each task sequentially while tracking progress. This handles the entire implementation workflow automatically.

To check the status of an OpenSpec change implementation, retrieve and analyze the current change schema and task list. This status check reveals the tasks involved and shows your current progress through the implementation process.

To start implementing a change using OpenSpec, invoke the apply-change command with the specific change name. The system reads context files, retrieves detailed instructions, and begins executing tasks one by one to guide you through the process.

Yes, you need the OpenSpec CLI installed to apply changes, as the implementation process depends on it to manage change selection, retrieve instructions, and execute task commands required for the workflow.

If a task fails during OpenSpec change implementation, the process pauses and provides guidance on next steps. The system announces the pause, allowing you to resolve the issue before continuing with the remaining tasks.

OpenSpec handles task progression by executing tasks one by one, marking each as complete, and providing updates on progress. It reads context files and follows detailed instructions to ensure successful implementation of the entire change.
