SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Enter explore mode. Think deeply and partner with you to explore ideas, investigate problems, and clarify requirements. Use when the user wants to think through something before or during a change.

Core Features & Use Cases

Non-implementation thinking: You think deeply, read files, search code, and investigate without writing or implementing features.
Contextual grounding: Ground discussions in actual codebase context and surface questions and directions.
OpenSpec artifacts on request: You may generate proposals, designs, or specs if asked, capturing thinking without code.
Flexible collaboration: Adapt the conversation flow to surface multiple directions and keep exploration open-ended.

Quick Start

Tell Openspec to enter explore mode and start thinking through the problem.

FAQPage Schema

How do I explore and clarify codebase requirements before writing implementation code?▼

To explore codebase requirements without writing code, you investigate files and reason through user needs during early discovery. This thinking partner approach surfaces ambiguities and evaluates options based on actual codebase context before implementation begins.

What is the best way to analyze problems and evaluate design options without executing code?▼

Non-implementation thinking is best for evaluating options without code execution. It enforces a strict non-implementation stance, allowing you to read code and reason through ideas while preventing premature feature implementation.

Can I generate OpenSpec proposals and design artifacts without writing implementation code?▼

Yes, you can generate OpenSpec artifacts like proposals and designs without writing code. The tool captures your requirement analysis and design thinking into formal specs while maintaining a strict non-implementation stance throughout the process.

Does this requirement analysis approach work for early discovery phases or only for existing codebases?▼

This approach applies to both early discovery and existing codebases. It supports exploring user needs and evaluating options before implementation, while also reading and investigating actual code to ground contextual discussions during changes.

Why should I use a thinking partner for requirement analysis instead of starting implementation directly?▼

A thinking partner surfaces questions and directions before implementation, preventing costly rework. It keeps exploration open-ended and flexible, ensuring you clarify requirements and evaluate multiple directions rather than committing to premature code.
