Status

LGTM for final review. The batch failure contract is explicit, focused tests/build/lint pass, and review threads are resolved.

What was missing

openspec status could report only one change at a time, forcing dashboards and CI to spawn one process per active change. The initial implementation also treated malformed peers as successful in JSON mode and documented the feature only in the legacy CLI page.

What it does

  • status --all reports every active change in deterministic name order.
  • --all --json emits one { changes, root } envelope, with the root hoisted out of per-change entries.
  • A malformed change contributes a diagnostic entry while the sweep continues.
  • Any malformed entry exits 1 in both text and JSON modes, so CI cannot accept incomplete status data; JSON remains one parseable document.
  • Root/schema/flag failures use { changes: [], root: null, status: [...] }.
  • Empty projects remain informational and exit 0.
  • --all and --change are mutually exclusive.
  • Registered-store selection and schema overrides apply consistently across the batch.

Canonical docs live in docs-lab/reference/cli.md; the obsolete legacy CLI edit was removed. The active agent contract and changeset match the final exit semantics.

Proof it works

  • Status/store suites: 54/54 passed.
  • Build and lint pass.
  • Regression coverage pins sorting, complete partial-failure envelopes, diagnostic order, nonzero JSON/text failure status, empty projects, null-shapes, stores, and schema overrides.
  • GitHub checks are green on the hardened commit.

Notes / nits

This intentionally follows OpenSpec's global JSON/CI failure rule and validate --all: structured output can remain parseable while the process still reports failure.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

openspec status now supports --all to report every active change. Batch output is sorted, uses one JSON envelope, preserves per-change load diagnostics, and exits with code 1 on partial failures. Documentation and tests cover flag validation, store roots, schemas, and output modes.

Changes

status --all implementation

Layer / File(s) Summary
Core batch status logic
src/commands/workflow/status.ts
Adds batch status processing, sorted results, shared status loading, per-change diagnostics, JSON and text output, flag validation, schema validation, and exit-code handling.
CLI flag and failure payload wiring
src/cli/index.ts, src/commands/workflow/index.ts, src/core/completions/command-registry.ts
Adds the --all option, completion metadata, and batch JSON failure payload handling.
Batch status validation tests
test/commands/status-all.test.ts, test/commands/store-root-selection.test.ts
Tests ordering, envelopes, diagnostics, output modes, exit codes, flag validation, store roots, and schema overrides.
Batch status documentation
.changeset/status-all-flag.md, docs/agent-contract.md, docs-lab/reference/cli.md
Documents batch usage, JSON behavior, sorting, diagnostics, validation, and exit codes.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to fc8aa

The batch status behavior and exit-code contract are addressed, but docs-lab/reference/cli.md still has an unlabeled fenced block that triggers a documentation-lint error. This is a bounded follow-up item, so the PR is otherwise mergeable with owner awareness.

162-167: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | 💤 Low value

Consider mentioning --all in the missing---change error.

Now that --all exists as an alternative, the error message could hint at it (e.g., "...or use --all to see status for every change") to improve discoverability.

💡 Optional wording tweak
       throw new Error(
-        `Missing required option --change. Available changes:\n  ${available.join('\n  ')}`
+        `Missing required option --change (or use --all). Available changes:\n  ${available.join('\n  ')}`

`openspec status --all --json` reports every active change in one
process instead of one CLI spawn (~500ms module-load) per change,
mirroring the existing `validate --all`. Emits a single
`{ changes: [ChangeStatus, ...], root }` envelope sorted by change
name; a change that fails to load contributes a per-change error entry
instead of failing the sweep. `--all` and `--change` are mutually
exclusive, honoring the --json null-shape on failure.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- Validate --schema before the no-changes early return so a bogus
  schema fails consistently whether or not any change exists.
- Text mode now exits 1 when any change fails to load (mirrors
  validate --all); JSON mode still exits 0 with per-change diagnostics.
- Add tests for the --all --schema interaction (unknown schema
  null-shape, override propagation, broken-metadata precedence) and
  text-mode failure rendering.
- Changeset heading to "### New Features" per repo convention; add
  status --all to the agent quick-reference table in docs/cli.md.

…ort with validate

Code-review findings on --all:
- Pass failurePayload: { changes: [] } to resolveRootForCommand so a
  root-selection failure under --all --json still emits the documented
  batch null-shape (siblings like list/doctor/context already do this).
- Sort with localeCompare to match validate --all's ordering for
  mixed-case change names.
- Extract a shared loadStatus helper so the batch and single-change
  payloads cannot drift apart.
- Changeset no longer claims exact validate --all parity (JSON exit
  semantics deliberately differ).

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Simplify pass on the --all diff: hoist the { changes: [] } batch
null-shape into an exported BATCH_STATUS_FAILURE_PAYLOAD constant so
the root-resolution and CLI-wrapper failure paths cannot drift, replace
the conditional spread with the plain ternary the sibling call site
already uses, drop a redundant array copy before sort, and narrow the
text-mode failure counter to the boolean it actually is.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
`openspec status` with neither --change nor --all listed the available
changes and named only --change, so the batch path was discoverable
only from --help. The error now offers both.

Also corrects two stale claims in the status section of docs/cli.md
that the new row sits next to: the command never prompts for a change
(it errors), and bare `openspec status` is not an interactive check.

…ge path

The batch sweep resolves the root once and threads the store id into
every entry. Nothing pinned that: a regression would have shown up only
as a wrong path inside an agent's JSON. Assert the sweep's envelope root
and per-change payload match `status --change` in a registered store.
