SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps you move from a rough product or implementation idea to a complete, structured change proposal without manually assembling the planning artifacts yourself.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • One-step proposal generation: Creates the change scaffold and the core planning artifacts needed to move forward.
  • Structured planning workflow: Produces proposal, design, and task breakdowns in the correct sequence for implementation readiness.
  • Use Case: A developer or product owner can describe a desired feature, then quickly receive a ready-to-review change package that can be handed off for execution.

Quick Start

Ask for a new change proposal by describing what you want to build or fix in clear terms.

FAQPage Schema
How do I generate a complete change proposal from a feature description?

To generate a change proposal, you provide a clear feature or fix description. The system creates a scaffold and produces structured proposal, design, and task artifacts together for implementation readiness.

What is included in an OpenSpec change proposal package?

An OpenSpec change proposal package includes the scaffold, design specifications, and task breakdowns. These artifacts are produced in the correct sequence to ensure the package is implementation-ready.

Do I need the openspec CLI to create change proposal scaffolds?

Yes, you need openspec CLI support to create the change scaffold. The CLI is required to inspect artifact dependencies and produce the implementation-ready outputs for the planning workflow.

How does structured planning workflow handle design and task breakdowns?

Structured planning workflows handle design and task breakdowns by applying a single user description to generate artifacts. This process applies to workflows needing proposal, design, and task artifacts generated together.

Can I hand off a generated change package directly for execution?

Yes, you can hand off the generated change package directly for execution. The output is a ready-to-review proposal, design, and task breakdown package that developers can use to move forward.

What's the best way to move from a rough idea to a structured change proposal?

The best way to move from a rough idea to a structured change proposal is using a one-step generation process. This creates the change scaffold and core planning artifacts without manual assembly.
