CLI Reference

June 24, 2026 · View on GitHub

The OpenSpec CLI (openspec) provides terminal commands for project setup, validation, status inspection, and management. These commands complement the AI slash commands (like /opsx:propose) documented in Commands.

Setup Commands

`openspec init`

Initialize OpenSpec in your project. Creates the folder structure and configures AI tool integrations.

Default behavior uses global config defaults: profile core, delivery both, workflows propose, explore, apply, sync, archive.

openspec init [path] [options]

Arguments:

Argument	Required	Description
`path`	No	Target directory (default: current directory)

Options:

Option	Description
`--tools <list>`	Configure AI tools non-interactively. Use `all`, `none`, or comma-separated list
`--force`	Auto-cleanup legacy files without prompting
`--profile <profile>`	Override global profile for this init run (`core` or `custom`)

--profile custom uses whatever workflows are currently selected in global config (openspec config profile).

Supported tool IDs (--tools): amazon-q, antigravity, auggie, bob, claude, cline, codex, forgecode, codebuddy, continue, costrict, crush, cursor, factory, gemini, github-copilot, iflow, junie, kilocode, kimi, kiro, lingma, vibe, opencode, pi, qoder, qwen, roocode, trae, windsurf

This list mirrors AI_TOOLS in src/core/config.ts. See Supported Tools for each tool's skill and command paths.

Examples:

# Interactive initialization
openspec init

# Initialize in a specific directory
openspec init ./my-project

# Non-interactive: configure for Claude and Cursor
openspec init --tools claude,cursor

# Configure for all supported tools
openspec init --tools all

# Override profile for this run
openspec init --profile core

# Skip prompts and auto-cleanup legacy files
openspec init --force

What it creates:

openspec/
├── specs/              # Your specifications (source of truth)
├── changes/            # Proposed changes
└── config.yaml         # Project configuration

.claude/skills/         # Claude Code skills (if claude selected)
.cursor/skills/         # Cursor skills (if cursor selected)
.cursor/commands/       # Cursor OPSX commands (if delivery includes commands)
... (other tool configs)

`openspec update`

Update OpenSpec instruction files after upgrading the CLI. Re-generates AI tool configuration files using your current global profile, selected workflows, and delivery mode.

openspec update [path] [options]

Arguments:

Argument	Required	Description
`path`	No	Target directory (default: current directory)

Options:

Option	Description
`--force`	Force update even when files are up to date

Example:

# Update instruction files after npm upgrade
npm update @fission-ai/openspec
openspec update

Stores (standalone OpenSpec repos)

Beta. Stores and the features built on them (references, working context, worksets) are new; command names, flags, file formats, and JSON output may change shape between releases. For the problem-first walkthrough, see the stores guide.

A store is a standalone OpenSpec repo you've registered on this machine — for example a planning repo or a contracts repo. Registering a store lets normal commands (list, show, status, validate, new change, archive, ...) act in it from anywhere by passing --store <id>.

`openspec store setup`

Create and register a local store. With no arguments in a terminal, OpenSpec guides the user through setup. Agents and scripts should pass explicit inputs and use --json.

openspec store setup [id] [options]

Options:

Option	Description
`--path <path>`	Folder where the store should live (for example `~/openspec/<id>`)
`--remote <url>`	Record the canonical remote in the new store's `store.yaml`
`--init-git`	Initialize a Git repository with an initial commit (default)
`--no-init-git`	Skip every Git action: no init, no initial commit
`--json`	Output JSON

Non-interactive runs (--json, scripts, agents) must pass both the store id and --path. In an interactive terminal, setup prompts for the location with an editable suggestion in a visible, user-owned place (for example ~/openspec/<id>); it never defaults to OpenSpec's managed data directory.

Examples:

openspec store setup
openspec store setup team-context
openspec store setup team-context --path ~/openspec/team-context --no-init-git
openspec store setup team-context --path ~/openspec/team-context --no-init-git --json

`openspec store register`

openspec store register [path] [options]

Options:

Option	Description
`--id <id>`	Store id; defaults to store metadata or folder name
`--yes`	Confirm creating store identity metadata for a healthy OpenSpec root
`--json`	Output JSON

`openspec store unregister`

Forget a local store registration without deleting files.

openspec store unregister <id> [--json]

Use this when a store was moved, cloned somewhere else, or should no longer be shown by OpenSpec on this machine.

`openspec store remove`

Forget a local store registration and delete its local folder.

openspec store remove <id> [--yes] [--json]

remove shows the exact folder before deleting in an interactive terminal. Agents, scripts, and JSON callers must pass --yes to confirm deletion. OpenSpec refuses to delete a folder that does not contain matching store metadata.

`openspec store list`

List locally registered stores.

openspec store list [--json]
openspec store ls [--json]

`openspec store doctor`

Check local store registration, metadata, and Git presence.

openspec store doctor [id] [--json]

Doctor is diagnostic-only; it reports missing roots, metadata mismatches, and invalid local registry state without modifying the store.

Referencing stores from a project

A project repo can declare which stores its work draws on in openspec/config.yaml:

schema: spec-driven
references:
  - team-context

From then on, openspec instructions output in that repo (both the per-artifact and apply surfaces, JSON and human modes) carries an index of each referenced store's specs — spec ids, a one-line summary from each spec's Purpose section, and the fetch command (openspec show <spec-id> --type spec --store <id>). The index is built live from the registered checkout on every run; spec content is never copied into the output.

References are read-only context. They never change where commands act: work stays in the repo's own root, and writing to a referenced store remains an explicit --store action. A reference that cannot be resolved (for example, a store not registered on this machine) degrades to a warning in the index with the exact fix, and instructions still generate. openspec doctor reports reference health in one place.

Recording where a store is cloned from

A store can record its canonical clone source in its committed identity file, so onboarding never dead-ends at "register the store":

openspec store setup team-context --path ~/openspec/team-context \
  --remote git@github.com:acme/team-context.git

The remote lands in .openspec-store/store.yaml inside the initial commit, so every clone is born knowing it. For an existing store, edit store.yaml by hand and commit. store doctor shows the recorded remote (and the checkout's observed Git origin); setup/register sharing guidance names it; and register records the checkout's origin in the machine-local registry.

A reference declaration can carry the clone source too, so a teammate who doesn't have the store yet gets a complete, pasteable fix (git clone <remote> <path> && openspec store register <path> --id <id>):

references:
  - { id: team-context, remote: "git@github.com:acme/team-context.git" }

Recording a remote is not sync: OpenSpec never clones, pulls, or pushes on its own.

Declaring a default store

A repo whose planning is fully externalized — no local openspec/specs/ or openspec/changes/ — can declare its store once instead of passing --store on every command:

# openspec/config.yaml (the only file under openspec/)
store: team-context

Normal commands then resolve to the declared store automatically; the root banner and JSON root block report source: "declared" with the store id, and printed hints still carry --store <id>. The declaration is a fallback, never an override: explicit --store always wins, and a directory with real planning folders ignores the pointer (with a warning). To convert a pointer repo into a local OpenSpec root, remove the store: line and run openspec init — init refuses to scaffold while the declaration is present.

Doctor (relationship health)

One read-only question, one place: is the OpenSpec root healthy, and are the stores it references available on this machine?

openspec doctor [--store <id>] [--json]

The report separates root health, store metadata health (including a note when the recorded remote and the checkout's origin diverge), and reference health (the same diagnostics instructions show, with clone fixes for unresolved references). Health findings of any severity exit 0 — agents read the status arrays; only command failures (no root, unknown store) exit 1. Doctor never clones, syncs, or repairs. To get the assembled set itself rather than its health, use openspec context.

Working context (the assembled set)

Everything this work relates to through OpenSpec declarations, in one working set: the OpenSpec root and the stores it references.

openspec context [--store <id>] [--json] [--code-workspace <path> [--force]]

The JSON brief is agent-consumable (each available referenced store carries its fetch recipe; unresolved members carry the same fixes instructions and doctor show). --code-workspace additionally writes a VS Code workspace file containing the root plus the available referenced stores (ref:<id> folders) — the one write this command performs, refused without --force if the file exists. Unavailable members are reported, never guessed at.

"Working context" is the assembled set; the context: field in openspec/config.yaml is project background injected into instructions — two different things. openspec doctor answers whether the set is healthy; openspec context answers what the set is.

Personal worksets

Beta. Worksets are part of the new beta surface; commands, flags, and file formats may change shape between releases. For the walkthrough, see the stores guide.

A workset is a personal, named view of the folders you work on together — a planning root plus whatever else you choose — kept on your machine and reopened by name in your tool. It is purely local: never committed, never shared, never derived from declarations, and removing one never touches a member folder.

openspec workset create [name] [--member <path> | --member <name>=<path>]... [--tool <id>] [--json]
openspec workset list [--json]
openspec workset open <name> [--tool <id>]
openspec workset remove <name> [--yes] [--json]

create runs a short guided flow (or takes --member flags non-interactively; the first member is the primary — sessions start there). open launches the chosen tool: editors (VS Code, Cursor) open a window with every member and return; CLI agents (Claude Code, codex) take over this terminal as a session with every member attached and no prompt pre-filled, ending when you exit. A member folder missing at open time is skipped with a note; the rest opens. The saved tool preference is overridable per open with --tool.

Supporting a new tool is configuration, not code. Every tool is one of two launch styles — workspace-file (launched with the generated .code-workspace) or attach-dirs (one attach flag per member) — and the openers key in the global config.json (open it with openspec config edit) adds tools or adjusts built-ins per field:

{
  "openers": {
    "zed": { "style": "workspace-file" },
    "claude": { "attach_flag": "--dir" }
  }
}

All workset state lives under the global data dir's worksets/ folder (the saved views plus the generated <name>.code-workspace files, regenerated on every open); deleting that folder removes every trace.

Configuration Commands

`openspec config`

View and modify global OpenSpec configuration.

openspec config <subcommand> [options]

Subcommands:

Subcommand	Description
`path`	Show config file location
`list`	Show all current settings
`get <key>`	Get a specific value
`set <key> <value>`	Set a value
`unset <key>`	Remove a key
`reset`	Reset to defaults
`edit`	Open in `$EDITOR`
`profile [preset]`	Configure workflow profile interactively or via preset

Examples:

# Show config file path
openspec config path

# List all settings
openspec config list

# Get a specific value
openspec config get telemetry.enabled

# Set a value
openspec config set telemetry.enabled false

# Set a string value explicitly
openspec config set user.name "My Name" --string

# Remove a custom setting
openspec config unset user.name

# Reset all configuration
openspec config reset --all --yes

# Edit config in your editor
openspec config edit

# Configure profile with action-based wizard
openspec config profile

# Fast preset: switch workflows to core (keeps delivery mode)
openspec config profile core

openspec config profile starts with a current-state summary, then lets you choose:

Change delivery + workflows
Change delivery only
Change workflows only
Keep current settings (exit)

If you keep current settings, no changes are written and no update prompt is shown. If there are no config changes but the current project files are out of sync with your global profile/delivery, OpenSpec will show a warning and suggest openspec update. Pressing Ctrl+C also cancels the flow cleanly (no stack trace) and exits with code 130. In the workflow checklist, [x] means the workflow is selected in global config. To apply those selections to project files, run openspec update (or choose Apply changes to this project now? when prompted inside a project).

Interactive examples:

# Delivery-only update
openspec config profile
# choose: Change delivery only
# choose delivery: Skills only

# Workflows-only update
openspec config profile
# choose: Change workflows only
# toggle workflows in the checklist, then confirm
