SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Fast-forward OpenSpec changes by auto-generating all required artifacts and scaffolding, eliminating manual, multi-step setup.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • End-to-end scaffolding: automatically creates the change scaffold and the required artifact sequence from a single change name or description.
  • Dependency-aware generation: determines artifact build order and ensures all prerequisites are completed before artifacts are produced.
  • One-shot implementation readiness: produces artifacts configured to be ready for implementation, reducing setup time for OpenSpec workflows.

Quick Start

Provide a change name in kebab-case or a description of what you want to build, then run the change to generate all artifacts in one go.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate OpenSpec change scaffolding?

Automating OpenSpec change scaffolding involves deriving a kebab-case name from user input to generate all required change artifacts in dependency order. This creates a complete, apply-ready scaffold in a single step.

What is dependency-aware artifact generation in OpenSpec?

Dependency-aware artifact generation determines the required build order for OpenSpec changes. It ensures all prerequisite artifacts are completed and validated before subsequent artifacts are produced, preventing sequence errors.

How do I initialize a new OpenSpec change from a text description?

Initializing a new OpenSpec change from a text description requires parsing the input to derive a kebab-case name. The system then uses this name to auto-generate the complete artifact sequence.

Does OpenSpec change scaffolding require manual artifact sequencing?

OpenSpec change scaffolding does not require manual artifact sequencing. The automation determines the dependency build order and generates the complete artifact set automatically, ensuring apply-ready completion.

What are the limitations of automated OpenSpec artifact creation?

Automated OpenSpec artifact creation focuses strictly on scaffolding and initialization. It generates the structural artifacts in dependency order but does not implement the actual code logic for the specified change.
