description	Archive a completed change in the experimental workflow

source-command-opsx-archive

Use this skill when the user asks to run the migrated source command opsx-archive.

Command Template

Archive a completed change in the experimental workflow.

Input: Optionally specify a change name after /opsx:archive (e.g., /opsx:archive add-auth). If omitted, check if it can be inferred from conversation context. If vague or ambiguous you MUST prompt for available changes.

Steps

1. If no change name provided, prompt for selection

   Run openspec list --json to get available changes. Use the AskUserQuestion tool to let the user select.

   Show only active changes (not already archived). Include the schema used for each change if available.

   IMPORTANT: Do NOT guess or auto-select a change. Always let the user choose.

2. Check artifact completion status

   Run openspec status --change "<name>" --json to check artifact completion.

   Parse the JSON to understand:

   • schemaName: The workflow being used
   • artifacts: List of artifacts with their status (done or other)

   If any artifacts are not done:

   • Display warning listing incomplete artifacts
   • Prompt user for confirmation to continue
   • Proceed if user confirms

3. Check task completion status

   Read the tasks file (typically tasks.md) to check for incomplete tasks.

   Count tasks marked with - [ ] (incomplete) vs - [x] (complete).

   If incomplete tasks found:

   • Display warning showing count of incomplete tasks
   • Prompt user for confirmation to continue
   • Proceed if user confirms

   If no tasks file exists: Proceed without task-related warning.

4. Assess delta spec sync state

   Check for delta specs at openspec/changes/<name>/specs/. If none exist, proceed without sync prompt.

   If delta specs exist:

   • Compare each delta spec with its corresponding main spec at openspec/specs/<capability>/spec.md
   • Determine what changes would be applied (adds, modifications, removals, renames)
   • Show a combined summary before prompting

   Prompt options:

   • If changes needed: "Sync now (recommended)", "Archive without syncing"
   • If already synced: "Archive now", "Sync anyway", "Cancel"

   If user chooses sync, use Task tool (subagent_type: "general-purpose", prompt: "Use Skill tool to invoke openspec-sync-specs for change ''. Delta spec analysis: "). Proceed to archive regardless of choice.

5. Check README and capability docs for drift

   Read openspec/changes/<name>/proposal.md — extract the What Changes and Impact sections to identify affected components and capabilities.

   Always check README.md:

   • Read the full README
   • Identify sections relevant to the change (commands added/removed, config changes, architecture changes)
   • If drift found: show the specific sections and proposed updates, ask user to confirm or skip

   Then check docs/*.md:

   • For each file in docs/, read its covers: frontmatter
   • If any component/class name from the change's impact appears in a doc's covers: list, that doc is affected
   • For each affected doc: read it, identify what changed, show proposed update, ask user to confirm or skip
   • If no docs are affected: note this in summary

   Drift check is non-blocking: if user skips all updates, archive proceeds normally with a warning note.

   Show a combined pre-prompt summary before asking:

   ## Docs Review
   
   **README:** [sections affected or "no drift detected"]
   **docs/music.md:** [affected — covers QQMusicHandler]
   **docs/timers.md:** [not affected]
   ...
   

   Then prompt: "Update affected docs now, or skip and archive with warning?"

6. Perform the archive

   Create the archive directory if it doesn't exist:

   mkdir -p openspec/changes/archive
   

   Generate target name using current date: YYYY-MM-DD-<change-name>

   Check if target already exists:

   • If yes: Fail with error, suggest renaming existing archive or using different date
   • If no: Move the change directory to archive

   mv openspec/changes/<name> openspec/changes/archive/YYYY-MM-DD-<name>
   

7. Display summary

   Show archive completion summary including:

   • Change name
   • Schema that was used
   • Archive location
   • Spec sync status (synced / sync skipped / no delta specs)
   • Docs sync status (updated / skipped / no affected docs)
   • Note about any warnings (incomplete artifacts/tasks)

Output On Success

## Archive Complete

**Change:** <change-name>
**Schema:** <schema-name>
**Archived to:** openspec/changes/archive/YYYY-MM-DD-<name>/
**Specs:** ✓ Synced to main specs
**Docs:** ✓ README and docs/timers.md updated

All artifacts complete. All tasks complete.

Output On Success (No Delta Specs)

## Archive Complete

**Change:** <change-name>
**Schema:** <schema-name>
**Archived to:** openspec/changes/archive/YYYY-MM-DD-<name>/
**Specs:** No delta specs
**Docs:** No affected docs detected

All artifacts complete. All tasks complete.

Output On Success With Warnings

## Archive Complete (with warnings)

**Change:** <change-name>
**Schema:** <schema-name>
**Archived to:** openspec/changes/archive/YYYY-MM-DD-<name>/
**Specs:** Sync skipped (user chose to skip)
**Docs:** Sync skipped (user chose to skip)

**Warnings:**
- Archived with 2 incomplete artifacts
- Archived with 3 incomplete tasks
- Delta spec sync was skipped (user chose to skip)
- Docs sync was skipped (user chose to skip)

Review the archive if this was not intentional.

Output On Error (Archive Exists)

## Archive Failed

**Change:** <change-name>
**Target:** openspec/changes/archive/YYYY-MM-DD-<name>/

Target archive directory already exists.

**Options:**
1. Rename the existing archive
2. Delete the existing archive if it's a duplicate
3. Wait until a different date to archive

Guardrails

• Always prompt for change selection if not provided
• Use artifact graph (openspec status --json) for completion checking
• Don't block archive on warnings - just inform and confirm
• Preserve .openspec.yaml when moving to archive (it moves with the directory)
• Show clear summary of what happened
• If sync is requested, use the Skill tool to invoke openspec-sync-specs (agent-driven)
• If delta specs exist, always run the sync assessment and show the combined summary before prompting
• Always run the docs drift check (step 5) — even if no delta specs exist
• Use covers: frontmatter to identify affected docs; skip docs with no matching components
• Docs drift check is non-blocking — user can skip all updates and archive still completes
