SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill removes the manual, error-prone work of copying or applying delta specification changes into canonical openspec main specs by reading change deltas and applying targeted updates to requirements and scenarios.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Selective Intelligent Merges: Read ADDED, MODIFIED, REMOVED, and RENAMED sections from delta spec files and apply only the intended changes to main spec files without overwriting unrelated content.
  • Create or Update Capabilities: Create new capability spec files when absent and append or modify requirements while preserving existing scenarios.
  • Interactive Safeguards: Prompt the user to select the change when ambiguous, show summaries of applied updates, and ensure idempotent operations for safe repeat runs.
  • Use Case: During a release, sync a feature branch's delta specs into the main spec corpus to update requirements and add new test scenarios without losing existing content.

Quick Start

Select the desired change when prompted and instruct the agent to sync that change into the main openspec/specs directory so it applies ADDED, MODIFIED, REMOVED, and RENAMED updates.
