Start a new OpenSpec change using the experimental artifact workflow. Use when the user wants to create a new feature, fix, or modification with a structured step-by-step approach.

Start a new change using the experimental artifact-driven approach.
Input: The user's request should include a change name (kebab-case) OR a description of what they want to build.
Steps
If no clear input provided, ask what they want to build
Use the AskUserQuestion tool (open-ended, no preset options) to ask:
"What change do you want to work on? Describe what you want to build or fix."
From their description, derive a kebab-case name (e.g., "add user authentication" → add-user-auth).
IMPORTANT: Do NOT proceed without understanding what the user wants to build.
Determine the workflow schema
Use the default schema (omit --schema) unless the user explicitly requests a different workflow.
Use a different schema only if the user mentions:
--schema <name>openspec schemas --json and let them chooseOtherwise: Omit --schema to use the default.
Create the change directory
openspec new change "<name>"
Add --schema <name> only if the user requested a specific workflow.
This creates a scaffolded change at openspec/changes/<name>/ with the selected schema.
Show the artifact status
openspec status --change "<name>"
This shows which artifacts need to be created and which are ready (dependencies satisfied).
Get instructions for the first artifact
The first artifact depends on the schema (e.g., proposal for spec-driven).
Check the status output to find the first artifact with status "ready".
openspec instructions <first-artifact-id> --change "<name>"
This outputs the template and context for creating the first artifact.
STOP and wait for user direction

Expert guidance for implementing SQL on FHIR v2 ViewDefinitions and operations to create portable, tabular projections of FHIR data. Use this skill when the user asks to create ViewDefinitions, flatten FHIR resources into tables, write FHIRPath expressions for data extraction, implement forEach/forEachOrNull/repeat patterns for unnesting, create where clauses for filtering, use constants in view definitions, combine data with unionAll, execute ViewDefinitions with $run or $export operations, or implement SQL on FHIR server capabilities. Trigger keywords include "ViewDefinition", "SQL on FHIR", "flatten FHIR", "tabular FHIR", "FHIR to SQL", "FHIR analytics", "FHIRPath columns", "unnest FHIR", "$viewdefinition-run", "$export", "view runner", "repeat", "recursive", "QuestionnaireResponse".
