What problem does it solve?
When implementing changes based on openspec artifacts (specs, tasks, design documents), it is easy to miss incomplete tasks, unimplemented requirements, or deviations from the agreed design, leading to low-quality code that requires rework before archiving. This Skill eliminates that risk by automating pre-archive validation of your implementation.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Task Completion Check: Automatically parses task checklists to flag any incomplete tasks that need to be finished before archiving.
- Requirement Coverage Validation: Cross-references delta specs with your codebase to confirm all defined requirements have corresponding implementation.
- Design Adherence Review: Checks that your code follows the key decisions and patterns outlined in the change's design document, and flags inconsistencies with project coding standards.
- Use Case: A developer who just finished implementing a new feature from an openspec change can use this Skill to quickly confirm all work is complete and aligned with the original artifacts before marking the change as archived.
Quick Start
Use the openspec-verify-change skill to validate that your implementation for the selected openspec change is fully complete, correct, and coherent before you archive the work.
