FAQPage Schema
How do I archive completed workflow changes with a date-stamped directory?

You can archive completed workflow changes by using a CLI tool to verify artifact and task completion, then moving the change directory to an archive location with a date-stamped name.

What is the process for verifying task and artifact completion before archiving a change?

Change archiving requires verifying artifact and task completion to ensure all implementation steps are finished before securely storing the change directory in the archive.

Does the openspec CLI tool support selecting specific changes to archive from a list?

Yes, the openspec CLI supports archiving user-specified change names or selecting available changes from a list to finalize and store completed workflow modifications.

How do I assess spec sync state before archiving data changes?

The archiving process evaluates delta spec sync state and prompts for synchronization if necessary, ensuring all specifications are aligned before the change is archived.

Do I need the openspec CLI installed to automate change management and archiving?

Yes, the openspec CLI is a required dependency for automating change management tasks, including verifying status and executing the final archive of completed changes.

What happens if spec sync state is not aligned before archiving a change?

If spec sync state is not aligned, the archive process assesses the delta and prompts for synchronization to ensure data consistency before moving the change directory.
