SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

OpenSpec change workflows stall when the next artifact isn't created; this Skill automates or guides the creation of the subsequent artifact to keep momentum.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Artifact orchestration: identifies the next required artifact in the OpenSpec cycle and scaffolds or guides its creation.
  • Context-aware: pulls existing change details and aligns the new artifact with the current change state.
  • Workflow continuity: prompts for change selection and ensures the process follows the configured OpenSpec workflow.

Quick Start

Select a change and generate the next artifact to continue the OpenSpec workflow.

FAQPage Schema
How do I continue an OpenSpec change workflow when the next artifact is missing?

To continue an OpenSpec change workflow, select the stalled change and generate the next required artifact. The workflow identifies the current change state and scaffolds the subsequent proposal, specs, design, or tasks artifact to maintain momentum.

What is the proper artifact sequencing for progressing OpenSpec changes across multiple sprints?

Artifact sequencing for OpenSpec changes follows a strict progression from proposal to specs, design, and tasks. The workflow enforces this ordering by integrating with the OpenSpec CLI to check status and ensure dependencies are satisfied before scaffolding the next artifact.

How do I generate the next OpenSpec artifact using CLI integration?

Generating the next OpenSpec artifact involves using CLI integration to pull existing change details and current status. The workflow prompts for change selection, checks dependency awareness, and scaffolds the subsequent artifact aligned with the configured OpenSpec workflow.

Can I use OpenSpec change management to progress multiple sprints with dependency awareness?

Yes, OpenSpec change management supports progressing changes across multiple sprints by enforcing artifact ordering and maintaining dependency awareness. The workflow integrates with the OpenSpec CLI to ensure proper sequencing from proposal through specs, design, and tasks.

Why does an OpenSpec change workflow stall before artifact creation?

An OpenSpec change workflow stalls when the next artifact in the sequence is not created. This interruption breaks momentum between proposal, specs, design, and tasks phases, requiring manual or guided artifact generation to resume the configured workflow.

Does the OpenSpec CLI need to be installed to scaffold the next change artifact?

The OpenSpec CLI is required for status checks and workflow instructions during artifact scaffolding. CLI integration ensures the new artifact aligns with the current change state and follows the configured OpenSpec workflow sequencing and dependency rules.
