SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Verify that an implementation matches the change artifacts and ensures coherence before archiving.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Artifact alignment: check that code implements delta specs and associated tasks.
  • Structured verification: generate a report detailing Completeness, Correctness, and Coherence.
  • Guided remediation: provide actionable steps to resolve incomplete tasks or design deviations.
  • Reference-driven validation: cross-checks artifacts under openspec/changes/<change-name>/ and related code.

Quick Start

Provide the change name when prompted, then run the verification to generate a structured report.

FAQPage Schema
How do I verify code implementation matches delta specs before archiving?

To verify code implementation matches delta specs, validate that the OpenSpec change implementation aligns with tasks and design decisions, then generate a structured report detailing Completeness, Correctness, and Coherence before archiving.

What is artifact validation for OpenSpec change management?

Artifact validation for OpenSpec change management is the process of cross-checking code implementations against delta specs, tasks, and scenarios located under openspec/changes/<name>/ to ensure coherence before archiving.

How do I check if my codebase aligns with OpenSpec change scenarios?

You check codebase alignment with OpenSpec change scenarios by inspecting artifacts under openspec/changes/<name>/, applying reference-driven validation to cross-check specs, tasks, and related code across the project.

Can I get actionable recommendations for incomplete OpenSpec tasks?

Yes, you can get actionable recommendations for incomplete OpenSpec tasks by running a verification check that produces a structured report highlighting CRITICAL, WARNING, and SUGGESTION issues with precise file references for guided remediation.

Does OpenSpec verification work with changes discovered via the openspec tool?

Yes, OpenSpec verification works with changes discovered via the openspec tool, inspecting artifacts under openspec/changes/<name>/ and validating delta specs, tasks, and scenarios across multiple codebases.

What is the best way to find design deviations in delta specs?

The best way to find design deviations in delta specs is to run a structured verification process that cross-checks artifacts and generates a report highlighting CRITICAL, WARNING, and SUGGESTION issues with precise file references.
