FAQPage Schema
How do I archive completed changes in an experimental workflow?

To archive completed changes, you verify artifact and task completion, assess delta spec sync state, and execute the archive operation to securely store the finalized change data.

What is the best way to finalize and archive a completed software specification?

Finalizing a software specification requires verifying artifact completion, checking spec sync state, and executing an archive operation to ensure data integrity and preserve the change history.

Do I need the openspec CLI to manage change archiving?

Yes, the openspec CLI is required as a dependency to manage change archiving, assess delta spec synchronization, and execute the final archive operation securely.

Can I archive a change if artifact and task completion checks have not passed?

No, artifact and task completion checks must pass before archiving. The workflow verifies completion and prompts for spec sync to ensure data integrity before executing the archive.

How does spec sync assessment work before archiving a change?

Spec sync assessment evaluates the delta spec synchronization state before archiving, prompting the user to sync if needed to prevent data inconsistencies in the archived change.

Why does the archive process prompt for change selection?

The archive process prompts for change selection to ensure user choice when a specific change is not explicitly provided, guaranteeing the correct completed feature is securely archived.
