What does delta spec synchronization check during openspec archiving?▼

Delta spec synchronization verifies that spec deltas are aligned before archival, ensuring the archived change reflects the correct spec state for future audits.

Why does openspec archive preserve the .openspec.yaml file?▼

Preserving the .openspec.yaml file during archiving maintains the change's metadata within the date-stamped directory, ensuring reproducibility and retrievable audit records.
