openspec-archive-change

To archive completed changes in a specification management workflow, use this Skill to select a change, verify artifact and task completion, optionally sync delta specs, and finalize the archive. It ensures all implementation tasks are complete before storing the change.

When archiving changes, incomplete artifacts block the process. The Skill checks and confirms that all artifacts and tasks are complete before archiving, ensuring no unfinished implementation work is finalized and stored in the archive.

Yes, you need the openspec CLI installed to finalize and archive workflow changes. The Skill requires this dependency to select changes, check task completion, sync delta specs, and execute the archiving process successfully.

Yes, you can sync delta specs with main specs before archiving. The Skill offers an optional delta spec sync step, allowing you to merge specification updates into the main specs prior to finalizing the change archive.

After archiving a change, the Skill displays a summary including the change name, schema, archive location, and any warnings. This provides a clear record of the finalized archiving process for tracking purposes.

To select a specific change to archive, specify the change name directly or choose from available changes listed by the Skill. It then validates artifact completion before proceeding with the archiving process.
