Can I archive a change if I don't remember the exact name?

Yes, if the name is omitted or ambiguous, the skill runs 'openspec list' and lets you interactively select from a list of active changes.

Does this skill automatically sync my documentation?

If delta specifications exist, the skill will assess the differences and offer to sync them to your main specifications before the archival process begins.

What happens if I have incomplete tasks when archiving?

The skill will display a warning listing the incomplete tasks and ask for your confirmation via the AskUserQuestion tool before proceeding with the archive.

Where are the archived changes stored?

Changes are moved to the 'openspec/changes/archive/' directory and renamed with a YYYY-MM-DD prefix for chronological organization.

API Development

Archives completed OpenSpec changes by verifying artifact status, syncing delta specifications, and organizing files into a timestamped archive.

This skill streamlines the final phase of the OpenSpec experimental workflow by ensuring all implementation details are finalized and documented before storage. It automatically verifies artifact completion via the OpenSpec CLI, checks markdown task lists for pending items, and guides users through syncing delta specifications to main documentation files. By organizing completed changes into a standardized, dated archive directory, it maintains project hygiene and provides a clear audit trail of API and capability evolutions.
