OSpec is a document-driven workflow tool for AI collaboration. It organizes work in natural language into a tracked process for development, validation, deployment, and delivery, with requirements, progress, and closeout kept visible in the repository so people and AI can follow the work.
The workflow centers on an explicit change model. OSpec recommends initializing a project, then creating and advancing one change for a requirement so proposal, tasks, state, verification, and review remain inspectable in the repo. It also includes an archive step for accepted changes after deploy and validation. The site describes the approach as keeping changes in the repo rather than only in AI chat, aligning before coding, and keeping the flow short.
OSpec works with Codex, Claude Code, and direct CLI workflows. The page also describes plugin support: the Stitch plugin generates page previews and matching code for UI design, while the Checkpoint plugin uses Playwright for UI verification and feature testing. The official install command shown is npm install -g @clawplays/ospec-cli, and the page identifies OSpec as the official site for @clawplays/ospec-cli and the ospec command. The site also offers Docs, Articles, FAQ, and a Prompt Guide.
