SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

The OpenSpec delta-sync tool helps teams merge delta specs into main specs while preserving existing content and avoiding destructive changes.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Intelligent delta merging: reads delta specs from openspec/changes and updates or creates main specs under openspec/specs, preserving non-delta content.
  • Change summarization: provides a concise summary of updates and maintains idempotency so repeated runs do not duplicate work.
  • Safe collaboration: supports agent-driven workflows by guiding the user to select appropriate deltas and applying changes with guardrails.

Quick Start

Run the openspec-sync-specs tool to merge delta specs into the main specs.

Why does my delta spec merge overwrite existing main spec content?▼

A delta spec merge should not overwrite existing main spec content if using intelligent merging rules that preserve unspecified content, ensuring only targeted delta changes are applied safely.

What is the best way to automate OpenSpec documentation updates?▼

The best way to automate OpenSpec documentation updates is to merge delta specs into main specs, creating a concise summary of updates while maintaining idempotency for safe, non-destructive collaboration.
