SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires openspec-cli, and includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill automates the process of updating main specification files with changes defined in delta specification files, ensuring consistency and efficient merging of requirements.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Intelligent Merging: Applies changes from delta specs to main specs, handling added, modified, removed, and renamed requirements.
  • Agent-Driven Operation: The AI directly reads and edits spec files, allowing for nuanced updates without manual intervention.
  • Use Case: When a new feature is developed, its requirements are documented in a delta spec. This Skill integrates those changes into the main requirements documentation, preserving existing content and intelligently applying new scenarios or modifications.

Quick Start

Use the openspec-sync-specs skill to sync changes from the 'feature-x' delta specification.

FAQPage Schema
How do I merge delta specification changes into main specification files?

To merge delta specification changes into main specification files, this Skill synchronizes added, modified, removed, and renamed requirements from the 'openspec/changes' directory into 'openspec/specs' using intelligent merging.

What is the best way to sync openspec delta specs with main requirements?

Syncing openspec delta specs with main requirements is best handled by an agent-driven process that directly reads and edits spec files, applying nuanced updates to integrate new feature scenarios without manual intervention.

Do I need the openspec CLI to synchronize specification requirements?

Yes, you need the openspec CLI installed to execute specification synchronization, as the Skill relies on this command-line tool to operate on files within the openspec directory structure.

How does intelligent merging handle removed or renamed requirements in specs?

Intelligent merging handles removed or renamed requirements by directly reading the delta specifications and editing the main spec files, ensuring existing content is preserved while applying structural changes accurately.

Can I automate updating requirements documentation when a new feature is developed?

You can automate updating requirements documentation by defining new feature requirements in a delta spec, which this Skill then integrates into the main requirements documentation to ensure consistency.

Why use agent-driven operation for synchronizing openspec files?

Agent-driven operation for synchronizing openspec files allows the AI to directly read and edit specifications, enabling nuanced updates and intelligent merging of requirements without manual file manipulation.
