Where do archived changes go?

Changes are moved to 'openspec/changes/archive/' and prefixed with the current date (YYYY-MM-DD) to prevent naming collisions and maintain an audit trail.

Does this skill automatically archive all changes?

No, it always prompts for a manual selection and requires a final confirmation before any files are moved to the archive.

How does it handle conflicting specifications?

The skill scans your codebase for implementation evidence to determine which spec is correct. If multiple changes are implemented, it applies them in chronological order.

Can I archive changes that aren't finished?

Yes, but the skill will flag them with warnings in a status table, ensuring you are fully aware of incomplete artifacts or tasks before proceeding.

Productivity & Workflow

Streamlines the archiving of multiple completed development changes while intelligently resolving specification conflicts.

This skill automates the cleanup of completed tasks within the OpenSpec ecosystem by batch-archiving parallel changes in a single operation. It goes beyond simple file moving by analyzing the codebase to detect and resolve conflicts between overlapping specification updates, ensuring that the final archived state accurately reflects the implemented code. By providing a detailed status dashboard and interactive safety checks, it helps developers maintain a clean project structure without the risk of losing documentation or archiving incomplete work.
