ship

A release command that validates a change, archives its specification, and merges it into the integration branch.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to validate OpenSpec changes, archive completed specifications, check pull requests or branch state, and finish the merge workflow.
Why use it?
It provides a closing checklist so unfinished tasks, invalid specifications, or failed checks stop the release.

Made for: Claude Code.

Per session 16 Only the description is in the session, so the agent can decide to use it. The body loads when it is invoked.
When invoked 396 The whole file, excluding the scripts and references it only reads on demand.
Security scan A 0 findings. Scan, not verified.
Origin original No closer match found in the catalogue.
Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

ship scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

Ship the change $ARGUMENTS (or the one inferred from the current branch — strip a leading Jira key like PROJ-123- before matching against openspec/changes/). This is the closing gate of the pipeline; every step must pass before the next runs.

Steps

  1. Validateopenspec validate <change> --strict and confirm every task in tasks.md is checked. Fail fast otherwise.

  2. Archive — run /opsx-archive for the change so delta specs merge into openspec/specs/. Commit the archive result on the feature branch with chore(<change>): archive openspec change.

  3. Merge — read workflow.yaml for platform, integration branch, and work mode:

    • On a feature branch, with gh/glab and an open PR: check CI/approval status; if green, merge (squash by default — confirm strategy with the user the first time) and delete the remote branch. Without CLI: instruct the user to merge in the web UI, and wait for confirmation.
    • Directly on the integration branch (flexible mode): there is no PR — just push (git pull --rebase && git push). Warn that this skips code review.
  4. Close the loop

    • If on a feature branch: git checkout <integration_branch> && git pull, delete the local feature branch.
    • Update the linked task: status: done.
    • If the task's id is a real Jira key, remind the user to transition the Jira issue (we don't have API access).
  5. Report: change archived, work merged, task closed — and list any follow-up tasks from the same discovery still pending.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
