What kind of visualizations does it provide?

It uses ASCII art to create terminal-friendly system diagrams, state machines, data flows, and comparison tables to clarify complex concepts.

When is the best time to use Explore mode?

Use it when you have a vague idea, are stuck on a complex architectural decision, or need to investigate a codebase before committing to a change.

Can OpenSpec Explore write application code for me?

No, this skill is strictly for thinking and planning. While it can update documentation and OpenSpec artifacts, it is programmed to never implement feature code.

How does this integrate with the OpenSpec framework?

It reads existing artifacts like proposal.md and design.md to provide context-aware insights and offers to capture new decisions into those files naturally.

생산성 및 워크플로

Facilitates deep architectural thinking and requirement discovery through interactive exploration and visual mapping without modifying application code.

OpenSpec Explore is a specialized thinking mode that transforms Claude into a strategic partner for the discovery and planning phases of development. It prioritizes curiosity over implementation, allowing developers to map codebase architectures, brainstorm technical approaches, and surface hidden complexities through ASCII visualizations. By integrating with the OpenSpec framework, it enables users to refine project requirements, update design artifacts, and validate assumptions in a low-pressure environment before any feature code is written. This skill is ideal for navigating technical uncertainty, reframing complex problems, and ensuring that implementation is grounded in a solid conceptual foundation.
