SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps teams ensure that an implemented change is complete, correct, and coherent with the delta artifacts (specs, tasks, and design) before archiving, reducing the risk of misalignment between documentation and implementation.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Delta-aware verification: loads available changes from openspec and surfaces their specs, tasks, and design artifacts.
  • Completeness, correctness, and coherence checks: evaluates task completion, spec coverage, and design adherence, plus code-pattern consistency.
  • Actionable reports: outputs a structured verification report highlighting CRITICAL, WARNING, and SUGGESTION findings with precise file references.

Quick Start

Run the verification workflow on a selected change to produce a full quality report.

FAQPage Schema
How do I verify code changes against specs and design artifacts?

Spec verification evaluates an implementation against delta artifacts by parsing specs and tasks to generate a report covering completeness, correctness, and coherence with actionable recommendations.

What is delta-aware spec validation for software projects?

Delta-aware spec validation loads available changes from openspec and surfaces their specs, tasks, and design artifacts to ensure implementation matches the intended modifications before archiving.

How do I check task completion and spec coverage for a recent code change?

Check task completion and spec coverage by running a verification workflow that evaluates task completion, spec coverage, and design adherence alongside code-pattern consistency.

Does openspec verification provide actionable code review findings?

Openspec verification provides actionable reports highlighting CRITICAL, WARNING, and SUGGESTION findings with precise file references to address misalignment between documentation and implementation.

Can I infer the change name automatically during spec validation?

Spec validation applies to software projects that manage delta specs and allows users to provide or infer the change name automatically to load the correct context artifacts.
