description
Create or advance a full OSpec goal using the current document, task graph, worker, review, and evidence workflow.
OSpec Goal
Use this skill for complex work that needs the full OSpec workflow. A goal is intentionally heavier than a change and is the place to use design docs, implementation planning, task graph dispatch, worker/reviewer handoffs, and durable evidence.
Loop Model
ospec goal creates a session-bound Loop automatically (artifacts/loop/loop.json + state.json + run-log.jsonl). You do not run a separate init step. Key contracts:
OSpec is the durable state-machine brain.ospec loop run --once first observes the previous task, review, or verification evidence, then emits a bounded batch of action items from task-graph.json. Each action carries a target-bound runtimeAdapter; execute it only through the current model harness native subagent primitive, then record durable evidence.
IDE controller auto-dispatch is mandatory. Every Goal uses the same executable fast quality workflow. After creating or resuming a goal, do not stop at "Loop initialized", ask the user to run Loop commands, or wait for another prompt. Once actions are ready, run ospec loop run <goal-path> --once --compact-json, immediately consume every returned action, record durable evidence as each executor finishes, and tick again. Stop only for an actual required user decision, unavailable independent or isolated executor, blocking safety/plugin gate, configured guard/STOP, terminal failure that needs user authority, explicit user pause, or done.
Harness capability is explicit and target-bound. In Codex create executable work with --target codex --execution-model controller --harness-interactive true --native-subagents supported; use the equivalent actual target in other IDEs. A target name alone never proves that native children exist. runtimeAdapter.selected exists only when the capability target matches, the session is current, and native subagents are supported. There is no Orca, target-CLI, or current-controller fallback.
Executor lifecycle is durable and bounded. After native subagent dispatch, record ospec loop heartbeat <goal> --action-item <id> --executor <child-id> once per child to claim it. Between native waits run ospec loop poll <goal> --json instead of a full tick: poll refreshes every claimed lease (no periodic heartbeat command is needed while polling) and reports tickNow; run a full loop run --once --compact-json only when poll reports tickNow=true or right after dispatching a new batch. Never make one indefinite native wait: while other work is dispatchable keep each wait within maxWaitMs (60 seconds); when the pending batch is the only outstanding work, one idle wait may extend up to idleMaxWaitMs (10 minutes) before the next poll. Codex/GPT use wait_agent, Claude uses bounded background Task polling when available, Grok Build uses get_command_or_subagent_output with the returned subagent ids and a bounded timeout_ms, and every other native adapter follows its published contract. The wait bound limits one controller wait, not the child runtime; a live child continues across polls up to its action deadline. Commit each finished child with its emitted ospec loop finalize ... command and persist completed siblings immediately; when authoritative durable evidence is already complete, the next tick auto-settles the item without waiting for a separate result call, and a later loop result for that item only tops up token usage. Direct late results for expired claims remain rejected, a controller that stops polling still lets orphan leases expire, and no renewal moves the absolute deadline. Legacy loop result remains supported. Use ospec loop recover --force only when the prior session/child is known to be gone. Expired items requeue; completed siblings do not.
Match execution shape to graph shape. Maximize task-graph width: every depends_on must be semantically necessary, and the combined planning review treats an unjustified fully serial chain as a finding. When a dispatched implementation action reports serialBottleneck (every remaining task waits on it), the controller may implement that task directly in the current session instead of spawning a subagent — claim it with executor id controller-inline, work from the referenced packet, then run the completion and result commands itself; task and final reviews remain independent subagents. With --review-gating optimistic, dependents dispatch while an upstream task review is still running and only the final review gate requires every task review approved — prefer it for low-risk goals; keep the strict default for high_risk/security_related work.
Planning quality is fast and bounded. Run design preflight, then implementation-plan preflight, derive the task graph, and let Loop issue one independent combined planning review. The two preflights use no reviewer child. A NEEDS_CHANGES planning review permits one grouped repair and at most one delta-scoped re-review; a repair executor failure with no planning edits re-arms instead of consuming the allowance, all-medium-or-lower findings settle deterministically as APPROVED_WITH_CONCERNS after the repair, and another semantic failure is a stable blocker, never an open-ended loop.
Progress documents track reality. Tick each proposal.md acceptance criterion as its verification evidence passes; tag acceptance lines with [verify:<id>] and record evidence with ospec execute verify ... --satisfies <id> so ospec execute sync auto-ticks them. Archiving blocks while proposal.md has unchecked items. review.md is a derived summary that ospec execute sync rewrites from the final review — never edit it by hand.
Required decisions always block. Present each required decision to the user, never auto-select the recommendation, and record the answer with ospec execute decision ... --select ... --answered-by user before the loop proceeds. New brainstorm resolutions require the same --answered-by user provenance.
/goal is capability-probed, not inferred from a target name.ospec execute launch --primitive goal produces a native-/goal instruction only when the current harness explicitly reports support; otherwise the same controller runs the verify-driven loop through native subagents.
Scheduling is session-bound. Controller mode re-runs loop run --once and consumes the emitted action batch through runtimeAdapter.selected.nativeSubagent. Unknown native capacity uses the default implementation concurrency of three while leaving conflict-safe review batches under the configured limit. When the current harness can authoritatively report a larger positive child capacity, bind it to the active controller session and raise maxParallel as appropriate; reported capacities such as 5-10 replace the fallback but never override dependencies, file conflicts, token funding, or the configured maximum. Never guess capacity from a provider name or stale session. If the session capability expires, OSpec blocks instead of starting an agent CLI.
Progress and feedback are artifact-backed. Task status, task/final review decisions, grouped repair waves, verification evidence, state.json, and run-log.jsonl carry progress between fresh contexts. Process exit alone does not complete an action. Dispatch only items returned in actions; a durable pending record with an empty action list is observation state and must not be relaunched.
Worker reports are task-owned review evidence. Every fresh task review binds the exact canonical artifacts/agents/worker-reports/<task-id>.md into its target snapshot. A structured repair may name only that same task's exact report path; another task's report, a parent artifact directory, review history, and arbitrary controller evidence remain out of scope. If an older review finding names a canonical report that its dispatch did not snapshot, execute the fresh task-review action emitted by Loop before repair; do not hand-edit or delete the old finding.
Guards are enforced before new work. Pause/STOP, iteration/deadline/token/time budgets, no-progress limits, comprehension-review checkpoints, required decisions, passed planning preflights and combined planning review, ready workspace evidence, and optional configured allowlists can stop or pause the loop.
Review repair is convergent and regression-aware. A downstream task that shares target files inherits transitive upstream regression obligations. Retryable dependent work waits for every missing prerequisite review to receive Loop executor provenance. A finding may cross the current task boundary only when every extra path belongs to a declared completed task; OSpec freezes the complete scope and re-reviews changed owners. While any recorded cross-task owner remains unapproved, its review or repair precedes new implementation and retryable worker work; other conflict-safe reviewers may stay parallel. Unknown or unfinished scope owners remain blocked. The default two-round values are convergence thresholds. Changed structured finding IDs continue automatically. A stable ID may also continue only when both its structured finding fingerprint and its authorized repair-scope code snapshot changed. In continuous mode, stalled task or final findings receive one durable strategy escalation for that exact scope and finding-ID set; follow its root-cause and regression instructions, then stop if the same set remains stalled because the same strategy key cannot be issued twice. Strict mode retains its configured limit. A blocked final review requires blocker resolution and must not enter grouped repair. Never raise a limit to repeat unchanged work.
Verification scope must be proportional. Treat an unscoped docker compose up --build or docker-compose up --build warning as a required preflight: inspect repository release guidance and prefer explicit service names unless the task genuinely requires rebuilding every service. Do not download or rebuild unrelated optional runtimes merely to verify a scoped application change.
External acceptance may be deferred, never waived. Keep device, credential, manual, and third-party acceptance out of unrelated implementation critical paths. When durable implementation exists and the user explicitly authorizes moving only external acceptance to the final gate, use ospec execute defer-blocker; the task stays BLOCKED and unchecked, while dependency-safe implementation may continue. Final review, verification, finalization, and archive remain hard-blocked until the real evidence exists.
Allowlist updates are optional, replacement-based, or explicit CAS. Repeated loop configure --allow-* calls replace the complete selected list and print a diff; they never append. When an extra boundary is needed, derive/check/apply exact task-graph permissions, review the diff, and pass --approve-expansion only for an intended expansion.
Stop condition is three-stage: run the project's real tests, record evidence with ospec execute verify --status, then confirm with ospec verify.
Scope
This skill covers the full lifecycle inside an initialized OSpec project:
requirement intake
goal naming or matching
proposal, design, implementation-plan, task graph, and task refinement
deterministic preflight for design and implementation plan
inline approval artifacts at artifacts/reviews/design-review.md and artifacts/reviews/implementation-plan-review.md
worker dispatch, launch, collection, retry, and review packets
user decision gates
workspace and worktree planning
TDD, debug, and verification evidence
a single combined final code review
finish planning, verification, archive readiness, and finalize closeout
Use ospec-change for small routine changes that only need the classic fast flow.
Read Order
.skillrc
ospec index query <keyword...> for the relevant .ospec/SKILL.index.json entries (root SKILL.index.json for legacy classic projects); never read the whole index file — it grows without bound as changes archive
.ospec/session-brief.md and ospec execute status [goal] --brief
the current dispatch, review, decision, or verification packet for the next action
target files and only the project or archived-feature docs routed by SKILL.index.json and docs/project/feature-index.md
Read proposal.md, design.md, implementation-plan.md, task graph, worker status, evidence, and review artifacts only when the current stage or packet needs their detail. The packet is the default worker context; do not reload every goal artifact on every turn.
For legacy root-layout projects, use the same paths without the .ospec/ prefix.
Language
Follow the project-adopted document language from managed for-ai/ guidance, .skillrcdocumentLanguage, and existing change docs.
Write every goal document and artifact you author — proposal.md, design.md, implementation-plan.md, tasks.md, verification.md, review.md, review artifacts, and brainstorm content — in that one language. Do not mix Chinese and English within a change.
Keep Chinese projects in Chinese unless the repo explicitly adopts English.
Visibility & Decisions
Announce-Before-Act: never run the goal workflow silently. Announce the current skill/stage, the ospec execute ... command and artifact, the selected runtime adapter, how many workers are launched, and which task each owns. Name the actual native mechanism: Claude Task, Codex/GPT spawn_agent, Gemini @generalist, OpenCode @mention, or the registered native target primitive. When a gate blocks progress, state what is blocked and what unblocks it.
Brainstorm-First: open each goal with a short brainstorming pass before locking design. Surface the open questions for direction, architecture, API, data, UI, risk, and scope, and ask the user one question at a time instead of silently assuming. NEVER auto-select the recommended option or resolve a decision gate yourself — recommended is only a hint to show the user. Present every gate to the user and wait for their actual choice; required gates block implementation and dispatch until the user answers. Do not run the whole goal in one shot without asking. Persist exploration with ospec brainstorm [path] --topic "..." when useful, and do not leave a brainstorm as an unanswered template — ask the user its decision gates and record each answer with ospec brainstorm resolve [path] --brainstorm <id> --gate <gate-id> --select <option-id> --answered-by user so it has a result. Resolve the brainstorm while its change is the active change (or pass --change <name>) so it links to that change and archives together with it — the brainstorm directory name need not match the change name. When any of those is genuinely open, prefer raising a durable decision gate over guessing: ospec execute decision [changes/active/<goal>] --id <id> --question "..." --option id:label:impact --required, present the decision report Chat Prompt or artifacts/agents/decisions/index.md, then record the answer with --select <option-id> --answered-by user. Only record an autonomous assumption in design.md when the user explicitly defers or is unavailable, and label it as an assumption to confirm. Present options using the best interactive mechanism your harness has: a native question UI (Claude Code AskUserQuestion, Gemini ask_user) if available, otherwise your plan/approval UI (Codex Plan mode) if available, otherwise the decision report Chat Prompt as plain chat text. ospec session hook --target claude --apply installs hooks that re-affirm this contract and hard-block subagent dispatch while a required decision is pending. On harnesses without a native picker or plan UI present the decision report in chat instead — the asking step and the block on required pending decisions are identical on every harness, so you always ask the user, only the presentation differs.
Required Logic
Inspect repository state first when posture is unclear.
If the repo is not initialized, stop at initialization guidance instead of forcing a goal.
If the request is new complex work, derive a concise kebab-case goal name and create it with ospec goal <goal-name> [path]; in Codex pass --target codex --execution-model controller --harness-interactive true --native-subagents supported so the persisted capability snapshot represents this IDE session.
If the matching active goal already exists, continue it instead of duplicating it.
Draft or update design.md from the requirement, proposal.md, and project context before editing implementation-plan.md, deriving artifacts/agents/task-graph.json, editing tasks.md, or editing code.
Draft or update implementation-plan.md from design.md; identify target files, expected results, verification commands, dependencies, parallelizable work, and conflicts.
Run ospec execute preflight [changes/active/<goal>] --stage design. It deterministically validates the current proposal/design context and records inline approval evidence. Resolve reported readiness errors in the authoritative documents; never launch a reviewer child for this stage.
Run ospec execute preflight [changes/active/<goal>] --stage plan. It validates proposal/design/plan readiness plus the current design preflight and records inline approval evidence. Resolve reported readiness errors; never launch a reviewer child for this stage.
After both preflights pass, derive artifacts/agents/task-graph.json from implementation-plan.md, then let Loop run the combined planning review before workspace or implementation dispatch. Give every task a documentation_updates array ([] when none), include every declared docs path in the same task's target_files, and require meaningful-change evidence from dispatch to completion; derive tasks.md from the task graph. Reviewed deletion is valid when completion evidence proves an existing baseline became missing. Across repair attempts, finalize compares the first baseline with the final completed state and requires the workspace to match the latest declared-owner evidence. Run ospec execute sync after closeout so status and checklists derive from authoritative state. Mark dependency/file-safe tasks parallelizable: true; a serial task must include serial_reason, and must include . Split broad tasks unless one atomic verification boundary requires the scope. Keep a red test with the implementation it validates. Separate implementation/automatic checks from external device, credential, third-party, or manual acceptance. Optional allowlists can be derived from the task graph when an extra boundary is requested. Finalize also generates one indexed for this goal.
Commands
Token economy: pass --brief on ospec execute … commands to get a token-lean summary (status, key fields, and the next instruction) instead of the full report — the artifacts are still written in full, so read them only when you need detail. ospec loop run --once --compact-json already embeds a graph summary (task counts, pending reviews) and lease-lean itemStates; drive each step from that output plus ospec loop poll instead of re-reading task-graph.json / worker-status.md / launch-plan.md or running extra ospec execute status calls every turn.
Do not use the goal workflow for routine one-file or low-risk changes unless the user asks for it.
Resolve execution from runtimeAdapter.selected.nativeSubagent, never from a process name or PATH probe. The capability must be current and bound to the configured target.
Launch the complete parallel-safe batch through the model harness native primitive and never duplicate completed siblings.
Missing, mismatched, future-dated, or expired native capability is a hard dispatch gate. Refresh the current model session capability; do not fall back to an agent CLI or the controller context.
Treat the emitted packet path as authoritative context. Do not paste the whole goal into each worker or reuse a reviewer context for implementation.
Do not claim goal closeout while document reviews, task graph, final reviews, worker status, required user decisions, or verification evidence are incomplete.
If real project tests exist, run them separately before recording verification evidence.
Archived changes are frozen evidence: never edit anything under changes/archived/. Report metadata concerns instead of rewriting history — the knowledge index derives from the authoritative documents and self-heals its cache.
Chat Prompt
ospec execute dispatch
Explicit-Verification-Intent: a user-requested verification surface such as $browser, a real browser E2E run, or another named skill/tool is a hard requirement. Immediately persist it with ospec execute require-verification <goal> --id <id> --kind browser|e2e|manual --description "..."; record successful evidence with ospec execute verify ... --satisfies <id>. Final verification and archive remain blocked while required evidence is missing or stale. Do not auto-select or recommend a verification option that removes it.
Zero-Setup: the user only starts a goal and describes the requirement — never make them run setup or ospec execute ... commands; you run every OSpec command yourself and the user only answers questions in chat. In a Claude Code harness at goal entry, if .claude/settings.json does not yet reference .ospec/hooks/claude/ospec-claude-hook.cjs, run ospec session hook --target claude --apply once (idempotent) so hard enforcement is active for the next session.

docs/project/changes/<archive-path>.md
Use ospec execute decision for direction, architecture, API, UI, risk, or scope choices that need explicit user selection, and always include --answered-by user when persisting the user's answer. Persist every named browser/E2E/manual verification requirement before implementation.
Use ospec execute workspace, dispatch, launch, complete, review, feedback, repair, sync, tdd, debug, and verify as needed. Run ospec loop run <goal-path> --once --compact-json, dispatch every emitted packet through the selected model-native subagent, record evidence as each child finishes, and tick again without another user prompt. Never start another agent CLI as a fallback. Model profiles resolve through .skillrc.workflow.model_profiles; complete --usage-file may record provider usage. Require reviewers to write Markdown plus sibling structured *.findings.json. If final review is NEEDS_CHANGES, create one grouped repair task instead of one worker per finding.
Do not archive while task graph status, task-level reviews, final reviews, worker status, required user decisions, document reviews, or verification evidence are incomplete during normal closeout.
Use ospec execute finish before finalize when the goal used task graph execution or worktree planning.
Use ospec finalize [changes/active/<goal>] as the normal closeout path. Closeout is automatic when ready: once the goal is complete and ospec verify passes with no required user decision or blocking gate pending, run ospec finalize yourself — do not stop at ospec archive ... --check (preview only) or wait for the user to ask. ospec execute finish strategy prompts (PR / merge / branch / worktree) are optional with safe defaults (direct-closeout + manual merge) — do NOT ask the user about them; uncommitted change/OSpec files are normal and do not block archive. Only open a PR if the user explicitly asked. Only pause for a genuine human gate: a pending required decision, an unapproved blocking plugin gate (e.g. Checkpoint), real verify/archive blockers, or an explicit user request to preview or approve first.
Force archive is never automatic. Only after the user explicitly asks to accept an incomplete Goal, report every failing gate and NOT_VERIFIED item, then double-check the Loop action items. A retained pending pointer is allowed only when every item is durably completed, failed, or expired; missing, issued, or running items still block. Run ospec finalize [changes/active/<goal>] --force-archive --confirm-force-archive <exact-goal-name> --reason "<accepted risk>". Do not rewrite failed evidence as passed. The resulting archive remains forced, incomplete, and accepted-risk, not completed behavior.
