SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill advances an in-progress OpenSpec change by selecting the appropriate change, inspecting its status, and creating the next required artifact so work progresses without manual orchestration.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Interactive change selection: Lists recent changes and prompts the user to choose the correct change when none is specified or when context is ambiguous.
  • Status-aware artifact creation: Queries the openspec CLI for status, reads dependency artifacts, retrieves artifact instructions, and creates exactly one artifact according to the schema and rules.
  • Progress reporting: Shows updated status after creating an artifact and summarizes what was created and which artifacts are now unlocked.
  • Use case: A product manager or engineer continuing a proposal-driven change can run this to produce the next spec, design, or task artifact while preserving schema constraints and dependencies.

Quick Start

Continue the change named payment-collect and create the next artifact according to the schema and instructions.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate creating the next artifact for an OpenSpec change?

Creating the next OpenSpec change artifact is automated by querying the openspec CLI for status, reading dependencies, and generating exactly one artifact according to schema rules. It then reports updated progress and unlocked artifacts.

How do I continue an in-progress OpenSpec change workflow via the CLI?

Continuing an OpenSpec change workflow involves selecting the correct change interactively if context is ambiguous, retrieving artifact instructions, and creating the next spec, design, or task artifact. This advances the proposal-driven change without manual orchestration.

Does the OpenSpec change workflow support interactive change selection when names are ambiguous?

Yes, interactive change selection is supported. When an OpenSpec change name is ambiguous or unspecified, the workflow lists recent changes and prompts the user to choose the correct one before generating the next artifact.

What is needed to generate OpenSpec artifacts automatically using a CLI workflow?

Generating OpenSpec artifacts requires access to the openspec CLI, repository file read and write permissions, and JSON parsing capabilities for CLI outputs. These prerequisites ensure the workflow can inspect status and update progress correctly.

What are the limitations of automating OpenSpec artifact creation?

Automating OpenSpec artifact creation is limited to generating exactly one artifact per run according to schema and dependency constraints. It cannot bypass dependency rules or create multiple artifacts simultaneously, ensuring strict workflow integrity.
