openspec-explore

Requirements clarification is achieved by structuring questions and surfacing assumptions during brainstorming. This thinking partner facilitates deep, non-implementation dialogue to help define scope and frame problems before any execution begins.

Yes, you can generate diagrams to visualize ideas during an exploration session. The guided exploration process supports reading and diagramming to help structure your thinking and outline key questions visually without proceeding to implementation.

The best way to structure a problem framing session is to use guided exploration with flexible prompts. This approach helps you outline key questions, surface hidden assumptions, and separate thinking from execution duties.

Yes, the thinking partner can optionally generate OpenSpec artifacts when requested. It proposes designs while clearly maintaining the separation between exploration thinking and actual implementation execution.

You should avoid using structured exploration if your goal is immediate code implementation rather than problem framing. This approach strictly fulfills exploration constraints and operates as a thinking partner without implementation duties.
