FAQPage Schema
How do I batch-archive completed changes in a codebase with parallel workstreams?

Batch-archiving changes requires scanning active changes with openspec, evaluating statuses and delta specs, then moving changes into a date-stamped archive directory while preserving metadata for auditability.

What is conflict-aware archiving for delta specs?

Conflict-aware archiving analyzes delta specs and verifies the codebase before moving changes into an archive, ensuring parallel workstreams are processed safely without unresolved conflicts.

Does openspec bulk-archive preserve metadata when archiving changes?

Yes, bulk-archive preserves associated metadata while moving changes into a dated archive directory, ensuring organized history and auditability across completed workstreams.

How do I reduce clutter from completed changes across parallel workstreams?

Reduce clutter by running the bulk-archive command to batch-archive completed changes, scanning active changes with openspec and moving them into a dated archive directory for organized history.

What's the best way to archive several parallel changes in a project?

The best way is using openspec for bulk detection of active changes, performing conflict-aware batch processing with delta-spec analysis, then moving changes into a dated archive directory.

When should I not use bulk archiving for codebase change management?

Avoid bulk archiving when active changes have unresolved conflicts or incomplete statuses, as the process requires evaluating delta specs and verifying the codebase before moving changes into the archive.
