Starts new software changes using a structured, artifact-driven workflow via the OpenSpec CLI.
The OpenSpec Change Manager skill streamlines the initialization of new features, bug fixes, and system modifications by implementing a disciplined, artifact-driven development lifecycle. It guides users through the process of defining change names, selecting appropriate workflow schemas, and scaffolding the necessary directory structures. By integrating directly with the openspec CLI, this skill ensures that developers follow best practices for specification-first development, providing clear status updates and detailed instructions for the initial stages of any project modification.
