About Ospec
OSpec is a document driven workflow for working with AI coding agents. It ships as an npm command line package from clawplays, run as the ospec command, installed globally with npm. The project states plainly that it is not OpenSpec. The idea is to keep requirements, progress and closeout in the repository instead of only in an AI chat.
It is aimed at developers who use Codex, Claude Code or direct CLI workflows and want a repeatable path from requirement to shipped change. The recommended flow has three steps, each driven by a natural language prompt: initialize the project, create and advance a single change for a requirement, then archive the change once it is accepted. Each change keeps its proposal, tasks, state, verification and review in the repo so people and AI can follow the work. The default rule is one requirement per active change.
Optional plugins extend the workflow. A Stitch plugin generates a page preview and matching code together, and a Checkpoint plugin uses Playwright to verify the Stitch UI and walk through key product flows before shipping. The site is available in English, Chinese and Japanese.
OSpec is open source with its repository linked from the site. No pricing is published, and the site's structured data lists the cost as zero.
