setup-openspec

A setup helper for OpenSpec, a specification-driven development tool. It installs the OpenSpec command-line tool when needed and initializes its Claude project files.

In plain words
What is it for?
Checking the required Node.js version, installing OpenSpec if necessary, and running its project initialization command.
Why use it?
It prepares a project to use written specifications as part of development. This makes the related exploration, proposal, implementation, and archiving commands available.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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

setup-openspec 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

Set up OpenSpec for spec-driven development in this project.

Steps:

  1. Verify Node.js ≥ 20.19.0 is available. Run node --version. If Node is missing or older than 20.19.0, stop and tell the user to upgrade Node.js first.

  2. Check whether the OpenSpec CLI is already installed globally:

    npm list -g @fission-ai/openspec --depth=0
    

    If it is not installed (command exits non-zero or output does not mention @fission-ai/openspec), install it:

    npm install -g @fission-ai/openspec@latest
    
  3. Run OpenSpec initialization in the current project directory:

    openspec init --tools claude
    
  4. Report what was done:

    • Whether openspec was already installed or newly installed
    • The output of openspec init --tools claude
    • The skills and commands that are now available (/opsx:explore, /opsx:propose, /opsx:apply, /opsx:archive)

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.
