openspec-archive-change

To archive a completed OpenSpec change, run the openspec command to verify artifacts and tasks are complete, then move the change directory to an archive path with a date prefix. The process checks status via openspec status and delta specs before finalizing the archival.

When archiving an OpenSpec change with incomplete tasks or artifacts, the process reports warnings instead of finalizing successfully. It verifies completion by checking openspec status and delta specs in the changes directory, ensuring only verified changes get archived.

You need to archive delta specs in OpenSpec workflows after implementation is verified and all tasks are complete. This ensures finalized changes are stored with metadata in a date-prefixed archive location for future reference and reuse.

Archiving a change in OpenSpec optionally prompts for delta-spec synchronization. The process reports whether specs were synced and preserves necessary metadata, returning a clear summary indicating successful sync status or warnings for incomplete items.

Yes, the OpenSpec CLI checks status via openspec status and verifies delta specs in the openspec/changes directory before archiving. It prompts for user confirmation when needed, ensuring artifacts and tasks are complete prior to moving the change directory.
