SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This skill helps teams ensure that an implemented change exactly aligns with specs, tasks, and design artifacts, reducing rework and post-archive audits.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Delta-spec verification: loads the change delta and associated artifacts to validate task completion, requirement coverage, and design coherence.
  • Evidence mapping: traces implementation to requirements and flags divergences to support rapid remediation.
  • Scenario coverage check: assesses whether test scenarios exist and are aligned with delta specs, guiding test design and validation.

Quick Start

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

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

Verify change implementations by loading the change delta and associated artifacts to validate task completion, requirement coverage, and design coherence, reporting any discrepancies found.

What is artifact-based verification for delta specifications?

Artifact-based verification for delta specifications is the process of validating that an implemented change exactly aligns with specs, tasks, and design artifacts, reducing rework and post-archive audits by tracing evidence to requirements.

How do I check scenario coverage against delta specs?

Check scenario coverage against delta specs by assessing whether test scenarios exist and are aligned with the delta specifications, which guides test design and validates that implementation matches the change artifacts.

Does openspec verification work with projects using delta specifications?

Yes, openspec verification applies to projects with delta specifications and related artifacts, using the openspec CLI and repository search to locate implementations and map code evidence to requirements.

How do I trace implementation evidence to requirements and flag divergences?

Trace implementation evidence to requirements by mapping code to delta specs and design artifacts, which flags divergences from the expected implementation to support rapid remediation before archiving.

What are the limitations of verifying change implementations using artifact mapping?

Verification using artifact mapping is limited to projects with existing delta specifications and related artifacts, relying on the openspec CLI and repository search to locate implementations and report discrepancies accurately.
