FAQPage Schema
How do I auto-generate design and task artifacts for a new software change?

To auto-generate artifacts for a new software change, provide a change name or description to produce proposal.md, design.md, and tasks.md in a single step. This automates upfront design and task breakdown using the openspec workflow.

What is the openspec workflow for change management artifact generation?

The openspec workflow takes a change description and outputs structured proposal.md, design.md, and tasks.md files. It provides guided planning with input validation to fully document and plan a change.

How do I create a proposal, design, and tasks breakdown all at once?

You create a proposal, design, and tasks breakdown simultaneously by describing the desired change. The skill handles end-to-end proposal generation, outputting all three markdown artifacts at once for immediate implementation.

Do I need any dependencies to use openspec for rapid design and planning?

No dependencies are required to use openspec for rapid design and planning. You only need to provide a change name or description, and the skill auto-generates the proposal, design, and task artifacts directly.

Can I use ai-assisted-dev to automate task breakdown for implementation?

Yes, you can use ai-assisted-dev to automate task breakdown for implementation. By inputting a change description, the skill generates a tasks.md file that structures the implementation steps clearly.

Are there limitations when generating multiple markdown artifacts for change management?

A limitation when generating multiple markdown artifacts is the need for a clear input change description. Without a well-defined change name or description, the generated proposal, design, and tasks files may lack necessary implementation details.
