Supported Tools

OpenSpec works with many AI coding assistants. When you run openspec init, OpenSpec configures selected tools using your active profile/workflow selection and delivery mode.

How It Works

For each selected tool, OpenSpec can install:

  1. Skills (if delivery includes skills): .../skills/openspec-*/SKILL.md
  2. Commands (if delivery includes commands): tool-specific opsx-* command files

By default, OpenSpec uses the core profile, which includes:

  • propose
  • explore
  • apply
  • archive

You can enable expanded workflows (new, continue, ff, verify, sync, bulk-archive, onboard) via openspec config profile, then run openspec update.

* Codex commands are installed in the global Codex home ($CODEX_HOME/prompts/ if set, otherwise ~/.codex/prompts/), not your project directory.

** GitHub Copilot prompt files are recognized as custom slash commands in IDE extensions (VS Code, JetBrains, Visual Studio). Copilot CLI does not currently consume .github/prompts/*.prompt.md directly.

Non-Interactive Setup

For CI/CD or scripted setup, use --tools (and optionally --profile):

bash
# Configure specific tools
openspec init --tools claude,cursor

# Configure all supported tools
openspec init --tools all

# Skip tool configuration
openspec init --tools none

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

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

Workflow-Dependent Installation

OpenSpec installs workflow artifacts based on selected workflows:

  • Core profile (default): propose, explore, apply, archive
  • Custom selection: any subset of all workflow IDs: propose, explore, new, continue, apply, ff, sync, archive, bulk-archive, verify, onboard

In other words, skill/command counts are profile-dependent and delivery-dependent, not fixed.

Generated Skill Names

When selected by profile/workflow config, OpenSpec generates these skills:

  • openspec-propose
  • openspec-explore
  • openspec-new-change
  • openspec-continue-change
  • openspec-apply-change
  • openspec-ff-change
  • openspec-sync-specs
  • openspec-archive-change
  • openspec-bulk-archive-change
  • openspec-verify-change
  • openspec-onboard

See Commands for command behavior and CLI for init/update options.
