SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps teams keep OpenSpec changes moving by automatically generating the next required artifact, ensuring a smooth continuation of the workflow.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Artifact progression: automatically determine and propose the next artifact in the current OpenSpec workflow based on status.
  • Status-driven guidance: reads change status, selects the appropriate artifact, and fetches instructions to proceed.
  • Guardrails and consistency: enforces dependency order and writes artifacts to the configured output paths, respecting project constraints.

Quick Start

Prompt the AI to continue the OpenSpec change by generating the next artifact for the active change.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automatically generate the next artifact in an OpenSpec change workflow?

You can generate the next artifact by prompting the AI to continue the OpenSpec change. The skill reads the current change status, selects the appropriate ready artifact, fetches its specific instructions, and writes the output to the configured path.

What is the best way to advance an OpenSpec change while respecting dependency order?

The best way to advance an OpenSpec change is to use an automated workflow tool that enforces guardrails and dependency order. This skill determines the next required artifact based on status and ensures all project constraints are honored during generation.

How does status-driven artifact generation work for OpenSpec changes?

Status-driven artifact generation works by reading the current OpenSpec change status to determine which artifact is ready next. It then fetches the necessary instructions for that specific artifact and writes the file to the specified output location.

Can I use this workflow to write artifacts to custom output paths?

Yes, the workflow honors configured output paths when writing artifacts. It enforces dependency order and respects project constraints, ensuring the generated artifact is placed in the specified output location defined by your configuration.

Do I need the OpenSpec CLI to continue changes and produce required artifacts?

Yes, this skill enforces the OpenSpec CLI flow to continue changes. It relies on the CLI to read the current status, select a ready artifact, fetch its instructions, and write the artifact to the output, ensuring a smooth continuation of the workflow.

Why does my OpenSpec change workflow fail to progress to the next artifact?

Your OpenSpec change workflow may fail if dependency order is not honored or if project constraints block progression. This skill enforces guardrails and reads the active status to ensure the next required artifact is only generated when dependencies are met.
