What it does

  • Derives a kebab-case change name from your request and runs openspec new change.
  • Parses openspec status --json for artifact dependency order and applyRequires.
  • Generates proposal.md, design.md and tasks.md using the template, rules and context returned by openspec instructions, re-checking status after each write.
  • Keeps the --store <id> flag when you work across multiple registered OpenSpec stores.

Who it's for

  • Teams already doing spec-driven development with OpenSpec.
  • Developers who want written proposal/design/task artifacts before coding.
  • Anyone managing several repos as OpenSpec stores.

Examples

  • "Add user authentication" → creates add-user-auth with all three artifacts.
  • Just describe "improve payment webhook retries" and it infers the name and writes the docs.
  • If a change with that name exists, it asks whether to continue it or start a new one.

git clone https://github.com/jabrena/plinth.git && mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills && cp -r plinth/benchmarks/problem2/scenario3/.agents/skills/openspec-propose ~/.claude/skills/

This is a third-party skill. Check the source repository before installing.

  1. Install the openspec CLI first and verify with openspec --version.
  2. Make sure your project has an openspec/ root or a registered store.
  3. Run git clone https://github.com/jabrena/plinth.git.
  4. Create the skills folder: mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills.
  5. Copy it: cp -r plinth/benchmarks/problem2/scenario3/.agents/skills/openspec-propose ~/.claude/skills/.
  6. Restart Claude Code and ask it to "propose a new OpenSpec change".
