openspec-propose is agent-read markdown (skill) from muthuishere/toolnexus: Propose a new change with all artifacts generated in one step. Use when the user wants to quickly describe what they want to build and get a complete proposal with design, specs, and tasks ready for implementation..
Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns the same grade.
What the file says
Propose a new change - create the change and generate all artifacts in one step.
I'll create a change with artifacts:
- proposal.md (what & why)
- design.md (how)
- tasks.md (implementation steps)
When ready to implement, run /opsx:apply
---
**Input**: The user's request should include a change name (kebab-case) OR a description of what they want to build.
**Steps**
1. **If no clear input provided, ask what they want to build**
Use the **AskUserQuestion tool** (open-ended, no preset options) to ask:
> "What change do you want to work on? Describe what you want to build or fix."
From their description, derive a kebab-case name (e.g., "add user authentication" → `add-user-auth`).
**IMPORTANT**: Do NOT proceed without understanding what the user wants to build.
2. **Create the change directory**
```bash
openspec new change "<name>"
```
This creates a scaffolded change in the planning home resolved by the CLI with `.openspec.yaml`.
3. **Get the artifact build order**
```bash
openspec status --change "<name>" --json
```
Parse the JSON to get:
- `applyRequires`: array of artifact IDs needed before implementation (e.g., `["tasks"]`)
…
Pin to a label to follow the author's releases, or to a sha256 to freeze the exact bytes forever. Either way the resolved hash is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install reproduces it on any machine.
