SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

It helps you start a new OpenSpec change with a clear, step-by-step artifact workflow instead of guessing what to create first.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Change scaffolding with the right workflow: Creates a new change directory using the experimental artifact workflow, optionally selecting a specific schema when requested.
  • Artifact readiness guidance: Shows artifact status for the change and identifies which artifact is next based on what dependencies are already satisfied.
  • First-artifact template delivery: Retrieves the template and operational context for the first ready artifact so you can begin drafting without manual setup.

Quick Start

Tell me what you want to build or fix and I will create the exact instructions to draft the first artifact of a new OpenSpec change.

FAQPage Schema
How do I scaffold a new OpenSpec change with the correct artifact workflow?

To scaffold an OpenSpec change, this Skill generates a new change directory using the openspec CLI and establishes a structured, step-by-step artifact workflow. It sequences artifacts and shows status-based next steps to guide your drafting process.

What is the best way to track artifact readiness and dependencies for a change request?

Tracking artifact readiness involves inspecting the change status via the openspec CLI to identify which artifact is next. This Skill retrieves dependency status and highlights the first ready artifact so you can begin drafting immediately without manual checks.

Can I select a specific schema when creating a new OpenSpec change directory?

Yes, you can select a specific schema when creating a new OpenSpec change directory. When you define your feature or fix, the scaffolding workflow optionally applies your requested schema to structure the generated change artifacts.

How do I get the template and operational context for the first artifact in my change workflow?

Getting the first-artifact template requires retrieving artifact instructions through the openspec CLI. This Skill automatically delivers the template and operational context for the first ready artifact, allowing you to start drafting without manual setup.

Does this change scaffolding workflow create all artifacts automatically?

No, the change scaffolding workflow stops before creating any artifacts. It strictly generates the initial directory, sequences the artifact workflow, and retrieves instructions for the first artifact, leaving the actual drafting to you.
