openspec-new-change

To scaffold an OpenSpec change, provide a kebab-case name and the workflow automates status checks, schema selection, and artifact template generation to guide your change creation step by step.

The artifact workflow is a structured, repeatable process for OpenSpec change management that derives names, applies schemas, checks statuses, and outputs first artifact instructions without creating artifacts.

You can select a workflow schema by specifying it explicitly when starting the change, or use the default workflow schema to tailor the artifact-driven process for your feature, fix, or modification.

No, the OpenSpec artifact workflow does not generate artifacts automatically; it outputs the first artifact instructions and templates to guide you through the structured creation process manually.

You need a kebab-case name because the workflow uses it for name derivation to scaffold and identify your new change consistently within the OpenSpec artifact workflow system.

Yes, you can use the default workflow schema for modifying a feature; the process applies to creating new features, fixes, or modifications with a structured, step-by-step artifact workflow.
