OpenSpec Explore Skill

Use /opsx:explore to think through ideas, investigate problems, compare options, and clarify requirements — all without creating any artifacts or committing to a structure. When insights crystallize, transition to openspec-new or openspec-ff.

When to Use

• Requirements are unclear and the user needs to investigate first.
• Comparing multiple approaches before deciding on one.
• The user wants to explore the codebase for improvement opportunities.
• Brainstorming before a formal change proposal.

Prerequisites

• OpenSpec initialized in the project (see openspec-initial).

Workflow

1. Start exploration

   • Run /opsx:explore or /opsx:explore [topic].
   • The agent opens an exploratory conversation with no structure required.

2. Investigate

   • Analyze the codebase, compare options, create diagrams, answer questions.
   • No artifacts are created during exploration — it is purely a thinking exercise.

3. Transition when ready

   • When the user has clarity, suggest /opsx:new <change-name> to start a formal change.
   • Or /opsx:ff <change-name> if they want to create all planning artifacts at once.

Outputs

• No artifacts or files are created. The output is the conversation itself — insights, options, recommendations.

Next Steps

• When ready to act: use openspec-new to start a change, or openspec-ff to fast-forward through planning.

Troubleshooting

• "Commands not recognized" : Ensure OpenSpec is initialized (openspec init). See openspec-initial.
