Revise a change's existing planning artifacts and keep them coherent. Never edit code.

Store selection: If the user names a store (a store is a standalone OpenSpec repo registered on this machine) or the work lives in one, run openspec store list --json to discover registered store ids, then pass --store <id> on the commands that read or write specs and changes (new change, status, instructions, list, show, validate, archive, doctor, context, schemas, view). Once selected, treat --store <id> as sticky for the rest of the workflow. Every unscoped example of those commands below is shorthand: before running it, append the flag. For example, run openspec status --change "<name>" --json --store "<id>", not the unscoped form shown below. Other commands do not take the flag. Hints printed by commands already carry the flag; keep it on follow-ups. Without a store, commands act on the nearest local openspec/ root.

Input: Optionally specify a change name. If omitted, check if it can be inferred from conversation context. If vague or ambiguous you MUST prompt for available changes.

/openspec-continue-change is an optional workflow and may not be installed. Before suggesting it anywhere below, verify that it is available. If it is unavailable, openspec status --change "<name>" --json shows the next artifact and openspec instructions "<artifact-id>" --change "<name>" --json explains how to create it.

Steps

Select the change

If a name is provided, use it. Otherwise:
- Infer from conversation context if the user mentioned a change
- Auto-select if only one active change exists
- If ambiguous, run openspec list --json to get available changes sorted by most recently modified, and ask the user to select one
