SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This skill helps teams kick off an OpenSpec change by guiding users through naming, schema selection, and artifact-status checks before any work begins.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Guided change creation using the experimental artifact workflow.
  • Automatic kebab-case name derivation from user input.
  • Default workflow with option to specify a different schema.
  • Status visibility and first artifact instructions, without creating artifacts yet.
  • Safe guardrails to ensure no artifacts are created until user confirmation.

Quick Start

Describe what you want to build and I will scaffold the OpenSpec change step by step.

FAQPage Schema
How do I scaffold an OpenSpec change using the artifact-driven workflow?

To scaffold an OpenSpec change, describe the feature or fix you want to build. The workflow guides you through deriving a kebab-case name, selecting a schema, and providing first artifact instructions without creating files until you confirm.

What is the artifact-driven workflow for change management?

The artifact-driven workflow is a structured process for initiating OpenSpec changes. It guides users through naming, schema selection, and status checks, outputting the first artifact template and a prompt to proceed before any actual artifacts are created.

Can I specify a custom schema when creating an OpenSpec change?

Yes, you can specify a custom schema when creating an OpenSpec change. The workflow selects a default schema automatically but allows you to request a different one to fit your specific change-management requirements.

How do I convert a natural language feature description into a kebab-case change name?

You provide a natural language description of your feature or modification, and the workflow automatically derives a kebab-case change name from your input to ensure standardized naming for your OpenSpec artifacts.

Does the OpenSpec change workflow create artifacts automatically during setup?

No, the OpenSpec change workflow includes safe guardrails to ensure no artifacts are created until user confirmation. It only provides the first artifact template, current status, and location details for you to review first.

What's the best way to kick off a structured feature modification in OpenSpec?

The best way to kick off a structured feature modification is to use the guided OpenSpec change workflow. It scaffolds the change step by step, showing the chosen schema, current status, and first artifact instructions for safe initiation.
