Frequently Asked Questions about openspec-archive-change

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I archive completed OpenSpec changes while keeping setup files intact?▼

To archive completed OpenSpec changes, the Skill moves finalized work into a dated archive directory while explicitly preserving your crucial setup files. It enforces artifact and task completion checks before moving anything.

What happens if I try to archive an OpenSpec change with incomplete tasks?▼

Archiving incomplete OpenSpec changes is blocked by the Skill's artifact and task status verification. It uses openspec commands to check completion status and prevents the archive move if tasks remain unfinished.

Can I synchronize delta-specs when archiving completed changes?▼

Yes, delta-spec synchronization is assessed during the change archival process. The Skill evaluates your delta-specs and provides an optional syncing step before moving the change to the archive directory.

Do I need to specify the change name manually to use the archive workflow?▼

No, you do not need to specify the change name manually. If a change name is not provided, the Skill prompts you with interactive change selection to identify which completed change you want to archive.

What is the best way to keep repositories clean after finalizing experimental workflow changes?▼

Archiving completed experimental workflow changes is the best way to maintain repository cleanliness and ensure traceability. This Skill safely moves finalized work into openspec/changes/archive and returns a concise summary.

Why does the archiving process verify artifact and task status before moving files?▼

Verifying artifact and task status before archiving ensures that only fully completed changes are moved to the dated archive directory. This prevents traceability gaps and avoids archiving incomplete experimental workflow work.
