To merge delta specs into main specs for OpenSpec, you run a delta synchronization process that reads both files, applies changes intelligently, and preserves unrelated existing content in the canonical main specs.

Delta spec synchronization applies incremental changes from delta specs into canonical main specs. You need it to safely update requirements without manual rework or overwriting unrelated content in OpenSpec repositories.

Yes, you can apply idempotent updates to add, modify, remove, or rename requirements in OpenSpec. Running the delta sync multiple times yields the same result without duplicating changes or corrupting existing content.

Yes, delta spec merging supports create-if-missing functionality. When a corresponding main spec is not found, the synchronization process can create the missing file and apply the delta changes directly to it.

You can track changes after syncing delta specs by reviewing the auditable summary of changes. The synchronization process reports a concise summary detailing all updates applied to the main specs.

Automated delta spec merging is limited to handling ADDED, MODIFIED, REMOVED, and RENAMED requirements. It focuses on preserving unrelated content but may not resolve complex semantic conflicts that require manual review.
