SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

When working on Maestro multi-agent development projects, completed active sessions and their associated design and implementation plans can clutter your workspace if not properly stored, making it difficult to track finished work without losing critical project context.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Active Session Validation: Checks for an existing active session before proceeding to avoid unnecessary errors.
  • Pre-archival Summary: Displays key session details including ID, task, and phase progress for user review.
  • Safe Archival Workflow: Moves active session files to the state archive directory and associated plans to the plans archive directory after user confirmation.
  • Verification & Reporting: Confirms no active session files remain and reports the exact paths where archived content is stored.
  • Use Case: After completing a feature build using Maestro's standard 4-phase workflow, use this skill to archive the session so you can start new work without losing access to the completed project's context and plans.

Quick Start

FAQPage Schema
How do I archive a Maestro development session without losing project context?

You can archive completed multi-agent Maestro sessions anytime after finishing a feature build using the standard 4-phase workflow. Archiving clears your workspace clutter while preserving the completed project's full context and plans for future reference.

What is the best way to clean up completed multi-agent workflow plans in my workspace?

This skill validates active sessions before proceeding, displaying a pre-archival summary with session ID, task, and phase progress for your review. It requires your confirmation before moving files and verifies no active session files remain afterward.

Does the session archive process verify that active files are actually removed?

This skill is designed for post-completion workflow cleanup across all supported runtime targets in Maestro projects. It applies specifically to multi-agent development environments using Maestro's standard 4-phase workflow.

Can I archive active Maestro sessions across different runtime targets?

Before archiving, the skill checks for an existing active session to avoid unnecessary errors. If no active session is found, the archival process will not proceed, ensuring you only archive valid, currently active development workflows.
