SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Manually creating coordinated change proposal artifacts (proposal, design, task list) for software development is time-consuming and prone to inconsistency across document types.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • End-to-End Proposal Generation: Automatically creates all required OpenSpec change artifacts in the correct dependency order with a single user request.
  • Schema-Compliant Output: Ensures all generated artifacts follow project-defined OpenSpec rules and structure, integrating context from dependent documents automatically.
  • Use Case: A product manager or engineer can describe a desired feature (e.g., "add user authentication") and receive a complete, ready-to-implement proposal package without manually writing each document.

Quick Start

Use the openspec-propose skill to generate a full change proposal for adding user authentication to the application.

FAQPage Schema
How do I generate a complete software change proposal with design docs and task lists?

Generate a complete change proposal by providing a feature description; the system automatically scaffolds schema-compliant design documents and implementation task lists in correct dependency order, eliminating manual artifact creation.

What's the best way to automate design document creation for new feature proposals?

Automating design document creation is best handled by generating coordinated proposal artifacts in one step, ensuring all documents align with OpenSpec standards and integrate context from dependent documents automatically.

Do I need the OpenSpec CLI to create schema-compliant change proposal artifacts?

Yes, generating schema-compliant change proposal artifacts requires the OpenSpec CLI to process documents in the correct dependency order and integrate context from completed dependent documents automatically.

Can I generate a ready-to-implement proposal package without manually writing each document?

Yes, you can generate a ready-to-implement proposal package from a single feature description request, producing all required change artifacts including design documents and task lists without manual writing.

Why does manual change proposal creation cause inconsistency across document types?

Manual change proposal creation causes inconsistency because coordinating design documents and task lists by hand is time-consuming and prone to structural misalignment across different artifact types.

When do I need to scaffold change proposal artifacts in a specific dependency order?

You need to scaffold change proposal artifacts in dependency order when creating coordinated software development initiatives, ensuring generated design documents and task lists follow project-defined OpenSpec rules.
