SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Automates applying or resuming tasks from a Spectra change.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Select a change (by name or inferred context) and announce the active target.
  • Check status, fetch apply instructions, perform preflight checks, read context files, apply project preferences, display progress, and implement tasks until completion.
  • Handle parked changes by unpark/add-to-in-progress as needed, and maintain a single source of truth via a tasks file.

Quick Start

Invoke spectra-apply to start processing the current Spectra change until all tasks are completed.

Frequently Asked Questions about spectra-apply

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

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate task execution for a Spectra change from start to finish?

To automate Spectra change execution, invoke the spectra-apply workflow to select a change, run preflight checks, read context, and implement tasks until completion. It enforces a file-based task tracker to maintain a single source of truth throughout the process.

How do I resume an in-progress Spectra change that was paused?

To resume an in-progress Spectra change, the automation reads the file-based task tracker to identify pending tasks, unparks changes if needed, adds them back to in-progress, and continues implementing tasks until finalization.

Do I need the spectra CLI installed to automate change management workflows?

Yes, the spectra CLI is a required dependency to automate change management. The workflow relies on it to check status, fetch apply instructions, perform preflight handling, and track progress via the file-based task tracker.

How does file-based task tracking work during Spectra change application?

File-based task tracking works by maintaining a single source of truth for progress during Spectra change application. The automation reads and updates this tasks file to handle in-progress states, parked changes, and finalization or pausing as needed.

Can I pause task implementation midway through a Spectra change workflow?

Yes, you can pause task implementation midway through a Spectra change workflow. The automation handles paused states by updating the file-based task tracker, allowing you to resume the in-progress change later without losing context or progress.

What is the best way to handle parked changes in a Spectra workflow?

The best way to handle parked changes in a Spectra workflow is to let the automation unpark them and add them to in-progress automatically. It checks status, retrieves apply instructions, and updates the task tracker before implementing the tasks.
