Does it support multiple workflow schemas?

Yes, it detects and reports the specific schema used for each change during the archival process and includes this information in the final summary.

Where are the archived files stored?

Files are moved to the 'openspec/changes/archive/' directory with a 'YYYY-MM-DD-name' naming format to maintain chronological order.

What is the primary purpose of the openspec-archive-change skill?

It is designed to finalize and move completed development changes into a timestamped archive folder while ensuring all tasks and specifications are properly synced.

Can I archive a change if some tasks are still incomplete?

Yes, the skill will identify incomplete tasks and artifacts, providing a warning and requiring manual confirmation before proceeding with the archive.

How does it handle delta specifications?

The skill assesses existing delta specs against main specifications and offers options to sync them, archive without syncing, or cancel the operation.
