SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill streamlines advancing an OpenSpec change by automatically creating the next artifact in the workflow, reducing manual steps and helping teams keep momentum.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Guided workflow continuation: lists available changes and their latest activity, then prompts you to choose which change to continue.
  • Artifact creation via CLI: uses the OpenSpec CLI to read the next required artifact's template and generate the artifact file, applying any dependency context.
  • Dependency-aware progress: reads completed artifacts to satisfy dependencies before writing the new artifact and surfaces what becomes available next.
  • Use Case: When a change moves from design to tasks, use this skill to automatically generate the corresponding tasks.md so the team can start implementation.

Quick Start

Use this skill to continue an OpenSpec change by creating the next artifact. Steps:

  • List changes with recent activity: openspec list --json
  • Check the status of a change: openspec status --change "<name>" --json
  • Retrieve instructions for the next artifact: openspec instructions <artifact-id> --change "<name>" --json
  • Create and save the artifact using the provided template and any required dependencies
