FAQPage Schema
How do I archive completed changes in an experimental workflow?

To archive completed changes, you select a specific change, verify all artifacts and tasks are completed, optionally sync delta specs with main specs, and move the change directory to a timestamped archive location.

When should I sync delta specs with main specs before archiving?

You should sync delta specs with main specs during the archiving process to ensure all specification changes are consolidated before the change directory is permanently moved to a timestamped archive location.

What happens if artifacts or tasks are not completed before archiving?

The archiving process performs an artifact and task completion check, preventing the change from being moved to the archive directory until all required items are marked as completed.

Do I need the openspec CLI to finalize and archive changes?

Yes, you need the openspec CLI installed and available in your environment to finalize and archive changes, as the Skill directly relies on it to verify completion and move directories.

What is the best way to manage change directories after completion?

The best way to manage completed change directories is to move them to a dedicated archive location with a timestamped name, which preserves a clear history of finalized workflow changes.
