FAQPage Schema
How do I archive completed changes in openspec with validation checks?▼

To archive completed changes in openspec, this Skill guides you through interactively selecting a change, validating artifact and task completion via status JSON, optionally syncing delta specs, and moving the folder to openspec/changes/archive.

What does it mean to sync delta specs before archiving an openspec change?▼

Syncing delta specs before archiving an openspec change means optionally synchronizing your experimental delta specifications with the main specs, providing a clear summary and guardrails to ensure consistency before the change is moved to the archive.

Can I archive an openspec change if artifact and task statuses are not complete?▼

No, you cannot archive an openspec change if statuses are incomplete. The Skill enforces automated validation of artifact completion and task progress using status JSON files, ensuring only fully completed changes are archived.

How does the openspec archive process handle configuration files like .openspec.yaml?▼

The openspec archive process preserves the original .openspec.yaml configuration file during the move. It safely relocates the completed change to a date-based folder within openspec/changes/archive without losing your configuration.

When do I need to use a date-based folder for archiving openspec changes?▼

You need a date-based folder for archiving openspec changes when you finalize an experimental workflow. The Skill automatically creates this dated directory structure inside openspec/changes/archive to organize completed changes chronologically.
