openspec-apply-change

Invoke the apply-change workflow with a change name, or let it infer one from context. It runs openspec status and instructions apply, reads the context files, then implements each pending task and marks it complete in the tasks file.

Run openspec instructions apply --change "<name>" --json to get contextFiles, progress, and the task list. Read every listed file such as proposal, specs, design, and tasks, then implement tasks one by one, checking each off as done.

Yes, the skill requires the openspec CLI installed on the machine. All state, instructions, and progress come from commands like openspec status, list, and instructions apply, optionally scoped with --store for registered stores.

When the apply instructions return state blocked, the skill shows the message and suggests creating the missing artifact, for example via the continue-change workflow or openspec instructions for the next artifact. It does not bypass the blocked state.

Pause when a task is unclear, implementation reveals a design issue, the work exceeds what the spec describes, or an error occurs. Only mark a task complete when its specified behavior is fully implemented, never partially.
