The diff command added unnecessary complexity and duplicated functionality
already available through the show command. Users can now use:
- `openspec show <change>` for structured change viewing
- `openspec show <change> --json --deltas-only` for delta-only views
- Standard git diff or other tools for file comparisons
This change:
- Removes ~227 lines of code and the jest-diff dependency
- Simplifies the CLI interface
- Reduces maintenance burden
- Aligns with verb-first command structure
- Add new `openspec change` command with three subcommands
- Implement JSON output capability for change proposals
- Add deprecation warning to legacy `openspec list` command
- Enable --requirements-only filtering for change show
- Support --strict mode and --json flags for validation
This provides programmatic access to change proposals through JSON output
and establishes a consistent resource-based command structure.
Implements new `openspec spec` command with three subcommands:
- `spec show`: Display specs with JSON output and filtering options
- `spec list`: List all available specifications
- `spec validate`: Validate spec structure with detailed reporting
Key features:
- JSON output for CI/CD integration (--json flag)
- Content filtering (--requirements, --no-scenarios, -r)
- Strict validation mode (--strict)
- Support for both Overview/Purpose and Requirements/Behavior sections
This enables programmatic access to OpenSpec specifications for external
tools and automated pipelines as specified in the add-spec-commands change.
- Extract magic numbers to named constants in validation/constants.ts
- Update task 3.2 to reflect actual implementation (constants.ts)
- Add comprehensive documentation for validation system
- Add migration guide for future command integration
- Update CLI help text for diff command
- Add Zod schemas for specs, changes, requirements, and scenarios
- Implement markdown parser for extracting structured data
- Create validation infrastructure with error/warning/info levels
- Enhance archive command with pre-archive validation
- Add --no-validate flag with confirmation prompt for emergencies
- Enhance diff command with non-blocking validation warnings
- Add JSON converters for spec and change formats
- Add comprehensive test coverage for all validation components
- Add --skip-specs flag to archive command to skip spec update operations
- Fix confirmation behavior: declining spec updates now continues with archiving instead of cancelling
- Add comprehensive tests for new functionality
- Update task documentation to reflect completed implementation
Adds a new `openspec archive` command that moves completed changes to an archive
directory with date-based naming. The command includes:
- Interactive change selection when no name provided
- Incomplete task warnings before archiving
- Automatic spec updates to main specs directory
- Confirmation prompts (skippable with --yes flag)
- Duplicate archive prevention
Also fixes TypeScript compilation errors in diff.ts and init.ts.
