openspec-archive-change

To archive completed changes, use the 'archive-change --change <change-name>' command. This initiates the archiving process by verifying that all artifacts and tasks are completed, and optionally syncing delta specs with main specs before finalizing the storage.

Before archiving a change, the system performs checks for artifact completion, task completion, and delta spec sync status. These checks ensure that only fully implemented and finalized changes are securely stored in the archive.

Yes, the openspec CLI is a required dependency for archiving changes. The Skill relies on the CLI to execute the series of pre-archiving checks and to manage the finalization of changes within the experimental workflow.

Yes, delta spec syncing is an optional step during the archiving process. You can sync delta specs with main specs before archiving to ensure your specification documents are fully up to date before the change is finalized and stored.

Change archiving fails when pre-archiving checks detect incomplete artifacts or unfinished tasks. The system requires all tasks and artifacts associated with the change to be fully completed before allowing the archiving process to proceed.

The best way to manage completed change archiving is to automate the finalization process using a dedicated workflow tool. This ensures artifact and task completion checks are systematically verified before securely storing the finalized changes.
