What is the primary benefit of the openspec-ff-change skill?

It eliminates the manual effort of creating individual development artifacts by automatically generating everything needed to start implementation based on your initial request.

How does the skill know what artifacts to create?

The skill queries the OpenSpec status and artifact build order, then follows the specific schema and instructions provided by your project's configuration.

Can I use this for existing changes?

Yes. If a change with the specified name already exists, the skill will recognize it and suggest continuing that change instead of creating a new one.

Do I need the OpenSpec CLI to use this skill?

Yes, this skill requires the OpenSpec CLI to be installed and accessible in your environment to run commands like 'new change' and 'instructions'.

Productivity & Workflow

Automates the sequential creation of all required OpenSpec development artifacts to accelerate feature implementation.

The OpenSpec Fast-Forward skill streamlines the initial development phase by automatically generating all necessary implementation artifacts in one go. Instead of manually stepping through artifact creation, it uses the OpenSpec CLI to scaffold change directories, parse dependency orders, and build context-aware files based on user requirements. This ensures that developers have a complete set of instructions, tasks, and specifications ready for immediate implementation while maintaining strict adherence to project-specific rules and schemas.
