To create the next artifact in an OpenSpec change workflow, you can use automation to validate current progress and coordinate with the OpenSpec CLI, ensuring proper sequencing and correct schema structure for the new file.

Advancing an OpenSpec change across multiple artifacts involves identifying the subsequent artifact, checking dependencies, and running the CLI to generate it while maintaining context throughout the workflow progression.

Artifact sequencing works by validating current progress and applying dependency awareness to ensure proper ordering. This mechanism guarantees that each subsequent artifact is generated only after its prerequisites are met.

Yes, you can use the OpenSpec CLI to generate artifact files without losing context. The automation handles status and instructions, producing a correctly structured file that preserves your workflow state across the change.

Yes, validating current progress is required before generating a subsequent OpenSpec artifact. This validation step ensures dependency awareness and proper sequencing, allowing the CLI to safely produce a correctly structured artifact file.

An OpenSpec workflow might fail to produce a correctly structured artifact file if current progress validation is skipped or if dependency sequencing is incomplete. The automation requires accurate status handling to generate the next artifact according to the schema.
