Can OpenSpec Explore write application code?

No, it is strictly for thinking and planning. It can create documentation and specifications but will not implement features to ensure focus remains on discovery.

What are OpenSpec artifacts?

OpenSpec artifacts are Markdown-based files like proposals, designs, and task lists used to document the thinking and decisions behind a code change.

How do I transition from exploration to implementation?

Once your ideas have crystallized, you can exit explore mode by starting a formal change using commands like /opsx:new or /opsx:ff.

Do I need the OpenSpec CLI to use this skill?

Yes, this skill requires the openspec CLI to be installed and available in your environment to manage artifacts.

협업 도구

Facilitates deep-thinking sessions, architectural exploration, and requirement clarification without implementing code.

OpenSpec Explore is a specialized Claude Code skill that transforms the AI into a collaborative thinking partner for the discovery phase of development. It allows users to investigate complex codebases, brainstorm architectural patterns, and map out requirements using visual ASCII diagrams and OpenSpec artifacts. By explicitly forbidding code implementation during the session, it ensures that developers focus on structural integrity and problem-solving before moving into the execution phase, making it an essential tool for navigating technical debt or planning new features.
