SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Start a new OpenSpec change using the experimental artifact-driven approach. This skill provides a structured, repeatable way to create feature requests, fixes, or modifications without manual guesswork, aligning with team standards.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Guided change creation: Walks you through naming, selecting the appropriate workflow schema, and scaffolding the change directory to ensure consistency.
  • Status-driven guidance: Offers commands to check artifact readiness and retrieve templates before execution.
  • Use Case: Ideal for teams adopting artifact-driven specs who want auditable, repeatable change workflows across projects.

Quick Start

Use the openspec new change workflow to initiate a change. The system will propose a kebab-case name from your description, determine the appropriate workflow, and scaffold the change without applying any artifacts yet.

FAQPage Schema
What is the best way to create repeatable and auditable change processes for engineering projects?▼

The best way to create repeatable change processes is using an artifact-driven approach that relies on the openspec CLI to guide naming, select schemas, and scaffold changes consistently across projects.

How do I scaffold a new OpenSpec change request using a guided workflow?▼

To scaffold an OpenSpec change, the workflow proposes a kebab-case name from your description, determines the appropriate schema, and scaffolds the change directory without applying any artifacts.

What is an artifact-driven change workflow in software engineering?▼

An artifact-driven change workflow provides a structured, repeatable process for creating feature requests or fixes using schema-selected templates, ensuring changes align with team standards and are auditable.

Can I check artifact readiness before executing an OpenSpec change?▼

Yes, you can check artifact readiness. The workflow offers status-driven guidance commands to retrieve templates and verify readiness before you execute the scaffolded change.

Does the OpenSpec new change workflow apply artifacts automatically during scaffolding?▼

No, the OpenSpec new change workflow does not apply artifacts automatically. It strictly scaffolds the change directory and prepares the initial templates for further execution.

When do I need to use a schema selection step for change management?▼

You need a schema selection step when initiating a change to determine the appropriate workflow schema, which ensures the scaffolded artifact templates match your specific feature, fix, or modification type.
