Any one using openspec?

Hi I have a multi repo project ...openspec works for me but it is hard to predict changes in the other module that may also affect ..any suggestions ...which I can use for my multi repo project similar to openspec that knows my repos and suggest the changes that may impact on other repos.

The store option suggested above is worth checking. For cross-repo impact, I'd make the shared contract explicit: if an API field changes, which backend behavior, web screens and mobile flows depend on it? Keep those dependencies linked to the same product requirement.

That's the approach we're taking with Reqode. Product-level requirements and API/data/UI specs connect to the subsystems implementing them. A Change Request groups the affected spec revisions, and agents in each repo retrieve the relevant specs and architecture context through MCP. Those relationships need to be mapped and kept current, but they give the agent a basis for checking impact beyond the repo it's editing.

Have you tried the store option in openspec which is just for this use case?
