Automating OpenSpec change scaffolding requires providing a user description to generate a new change scaffold, query artifact status, and generate dependencies in order. This skill handles the end-to-end creation of artifacts to accelerate implementation readiness.

Creating OpenSpec change artifacts in dependency order is handled by querying artifact status and generating required dependencies sequentially. The process ensures a ready state before proceeding to the next artifact in the scaffold.

Yes, you need the OpenSpec CLI installed to scaffold change artifacts. The skill requires CLI access and context permissions to automate the creation of artifacts, query status, and enforce guardrails.

Yes, interactive prompts are used to clarify unclear input when generating OpenSpec changes. The skill enforces safety constraints and guardrails by prompting for clarification whenever the provided user description lacks sufficient detail.

Manual OpenSpec change setup fails or takes longer because it is repetitive and error-prone. Automating the scaffolding, artifact sequencing, and readiness checks eliminates manual errors and accelerates the path to implementation.

Limitations of automating OpenSpec change scaffolding include a dependency on the OpenSpec CLI and context access. Without these environment requirements, the skill cannot generate artifacts or enforce its interactive guardrails.
