To merge delta specifications into main specs without archiving, this Skill intelligently applies additions, modifications, removals, and renames of requirements while preserving existing content. It infers or prompts for the specific change to sync based on conversation context.

Requirement synchronization handles modifications and renames by intelligently merging these changes into the main specifications. It updates the target capabilities directly, preserving existing content while applying the specific requirement changes from the delta spec.
