FAQPage Schema
How do I archive multiple completed changes in OpenSpec at once?▼

Bulk archiving in OpenSpec lets you move multiple completed changes to an archival folder in a single operation. The skill analyzes each change's status, detects conflicts in delta specs, and preserves metadata so archived changes remain traceable and your codebase stays consistent.

Can I detect conflicts before archiving changes with OpenSpec?▼

Yes. The bulk archive process inspects delta specs and artifact status automatically to identify conflicts before archiving. This conflict-aware handling ensures you resolve issues before moving changes, preventing codebase inconsistencies.

What happens to change metadata when I archive with OpenSpec?▼

Legacy change metadata is preserved during archiving, keeping archived changes fully traceable and queryable. The skill moves completed changes while maintaining all historical context and documentation.

How do I validate that changes are ready before bulk archiving?▼

The skill guides you through selecting changes and validates their status using the OpenSpec CLI. It confirms readiness and gathers artifact data before proceeding to archive, so only completed changes move to the archival folder.

Does bulk archiving work with delta specs and artifact conflicts?▼

Yes. The process analyzes active changes, inspects delta specs, and gathers artifact status to detect conflicts automatically. You can resolve conflicts during the guided workflow before completing the bulk archive operation.
