FAQPage Schema
How do I archive completed OpenSpec changes in my repository?▼

Archiving OpenSpec changes involves validating artifact and task completion, synchronizing delta specs with main specs, and relocating the change into a date-prefixed folder under openspec/changes/archive while preserving metadata.

What happens to delta specs when archiving an OpenSpec change?▼

During OpenSpec change archiving, delta specs are checked and assessed for synchronization with main specs to ensure the repository stays current before the completed change is relocated.

When should I archive an OpenSpec change instead of keeping it active?▼

Archive an OpenSpec change once all artifacts and tasks are finalized and delta specs are synchronized, ensuring the repository remains organized, auditable, and reproducible by clearing the active workspace.

Do I need to manually select which OpenSpec change to archive?▼

No, if no target is specified, the system prompts you to select from active OpenSpec changes and requests confirmation before executing the archive operation, ensuring the correct change is relocated.

Why does my OpenSpec archive operation fail validation?▼

Archive validation fails when artifacts or tasks in the active change are incomplete, blocking relocation to the archive folder to prevent losing unfinished work or unsynchronized delta specs.

Is OpenSpec metadata preserved when moving changes to the archive folder?▼

Yes, metadata and configuration are preserved during relocation to the date-prefixed archive folder, and a final summary is generated reporting the complete details of the archive operation.
