Guided onboarding for OpenSpec - walk through a complete workflow cycle with narration and real codebase work.
Guide the user through their first complete OpenSpec workflow cycle. This is a teaching experience—you'll do real work in their codebase while explaining each step.
Before starting, check if OpenSpec is initialized:
openspec status --json 2>&1 || echo "NOT_INITIALIZED"
If not initialized:
OpenSpec isn't set up in this project yet. Run
openspec initfirst, then come back to/opsx:onboard.
Stop here if not initialized.

## Welcome to OpenSpec!
I'll walk you through a complete change cycle—from idea to implementation—using a real task in your codebase. Along the way, you'll learn the workflow by doing it.
**What we'll do:**
1. Pick a small, real task in your codebase
2. Explore the problem briefly
3. Create a change (the container for our work)
4. Build the artifacts: proposal → specs → design → tasks
5. Implement the tasks
6. Archive the completed change
**Time:** ~15-20 minutes
Let's start by finding something to work on.
Scan the codebase for small improvement opportunities. Look for:
