Does this skill require external tools?

Yes, this skill requires the OpenSpec CLI to be installed and initialized in your project directory to function correctly.

Can I pause the onboarding process?

Yes, the skill supports graceful exits. Your work is saved in the openspec/changes/ directory, and you can resume using /opsx:continue at any time.

What is the purpose of the OpenSpec Onboard skill?

It is a teaching experience designed to walk you through your first complete OpenSpec workflow cycle—from identifying a task to archiving the finished implementation.

What kind of tasks does the onboarding identify?

The skill scans your code for TODO comments, missing error handling, functions without tests, 'any' types in TypeScript, and debug artifacts.

Learning & Documentation

Guides users through a complete OpenSpec workflow cycle to master structured, spec-driven development practices.

The OpenSpec Onboard skill provides an interactive, hands-on tutorial for the OpenSpec CLI directly within your codebase. It bridges the gap between theory and practice by helping you identify real improvement opportunities—such as TODOs, missing tests, or type issues—and walking you through the entire lifecycle of a change. From drafting proposals and technical specs to implementation and archiving, this skill ensures you learn the 'why' and 'how' of structured development while performing real work.
