Tasks

1. Global Config + Validation

• 1.1 Add installScope (global | project) to GlobalConfig with explicit global default for newly created configs
• 1.2 Update config schema validation and known-key checks to include install scope
• 1.3 Add schema-evolution tests ensuring missing installScope in legacy configs resolves to effective project until explicit migration
• 1.4 Extend openspec config list output to show install scope and source (explicit, new-default, legacy-default)

2. Tool Capability Metadata + Resolvers

• 2.1 Extend AI_TOOLS metadata to declare scope support per surface (skills/commands)
• 2.2 Add shared install-target resolver for skills and commands using requested scope + tool support
• 2.3 Implement deterministic fallback/error behavior when preferred scope is unsupported, including default behavior when scope support metadata is absent
• 2.4 Add unit tests for scope resolution (preferred, fallback, and hard-fail paths)

3. Command Generation Contract

• 3.1 Update ToolCommandAdapter path contract to accept install context
• 3.2 Update generateCommand/generateCommands to pass context through adapters
• 3.3 Migrate all command adapters to the new path contract
• 3.4 Update adapter tests for scoped path behavior (including Codex global path semantics)

4. Init Command Scope Support

• 4.1 Add scope override flag to openspec init (--scope global|project)
• 4.2 Resolve effective scope per tool/surface before writing artifacts
• 4.3 Apply scope-aware generation/removal planning for skills and commands
• 4.4 Surface effective scope decisions and fallback notes in init summary output
• 4.5 Add init tests for global default, project override, and fallback/error scenarios

5. Update Command Scope Support

• 5.1 Add scope override flag to openspec update (--scope global|project)
• 5.2 Make configured-tool detection and drift checks scope-aware
• 5.3 Persist and read last successful effective scope per tool/surface for deterministic scope-drift detection
• 5.4 Apply scope-aware sync/removal with consistent fallback/error behavior
• 5.5 Ensure scope changes update managed files in new targets and clean old managed targets safely
• 5.6 Add update tests for global/project/fallback/error and repeat-run idempotency

6. Config UX

• 6.1 Extend openspec config profile interactive flow to select install scope
• 6.2 Preserve install scope when using preset shortcuts unless explicitly changed
• 6.3 Ensure non-interactive config behavior remains deterministic with clear errors
• 6.4 Add/adjust config command tests for install scope flows
• 6.5 Add migration UX for legacy users to opt into global scope explicitly

7. Documentation

• 7.1 Update docs/supported-tools.md with scope behavior and effective-scope fallback notes
• 7.2 Update docs/cli.md examples for init/update scope options
• 7.3 Document cross-project implications of global installs
• 7.4 Add existing-user migration guide covering legacy-default behavior and explicit opt-in to installScope: global

8. Verification

• 8.1 Run targeted tests for config, adapters, init, and update
• 8.2 Run full test suite (pnpm test) and resolve regressions
• 8.3 Manual smoke test: init/update with installScope=global
• 8.4 Manual smoke test: init/update with --scope project
• 8.5 Verify path resolution behavior on Windows CI (or cross-platform unit tests with mocked Windows paths)
• 8.6 Verify combined behavior matrix for mixed tools across scope × delivery × command-surface capability
