openspec:done	Complete and archive an OpenSpec change.	openspec	openspec done archive complete

Purpose

This command finalizes your work on an OpenSpec change:

• Verifies all tasks are complete
• Archives the change proposal
• Updates CHANGELOG.md
• Clears the active change tracker
• Guides you to commit the changes

Steps

1. Check for active change

   • Read openspec/active.json
   • If no active change: "No active change. Use /openspec:work to start working on a change first."
   • Exit if no active change

2. Verify all tasks complete

   • Read openspec/changes/<change-id>/tasks.md

   • Count incomplete tasks (lines with - [ ])

   • If any incomplete:

     ⚠️  Not all tasks are complete!
     
     Remaining tasks: <X>
     - (list first 5 incomplete tasks)
     
     Options:
     1. Continue anyway and mark as done (not recommended)
     2. Cancel and finish remaining tasks
     3. Save checkpoint and resume later (/openspec:checkpoint)
     
     What would you like to do?
     

   • Wait for user decision

3. Final checkpoint

   • Ask user: "Would you like to save a final checkpoint before archiving? (y/n)"
   • If yes, run /openspec:checkpoint workflow
   • This captures final state in design.md

4. Run OpenSpec archive

   • Execute: openspec archive <change-id>
   • This moves the change to archived folder with timestamp
   • Updates specs/ folder with approved changes
   • Shows success message from OpenSpec CLI

5. Clear active change tracker

   • Delete or clear openspec/active.json:

     {}
     

   • Or delete the file entirely

6. Guide CHANGELOG update

   • Show message:

     ✓ Change archived successfully!
     
     Next steps:
     1. Review the changes made by OpenSpec
     2. Update CHANGELOG.md with this change:
     
        ## [Unreleased]
     
        ### Added
        - **<change-id>** - <brief description>
     
     3. Commit all changes:
        git add .
        git commit -m "feat: <change description>"
     
     4. The change is now archived in:
        openspec/changes/<timestamp>-<change-id>/
     
     Use /openspec:work to start on the next change.
     

7. Show OpenSpec view

   • Run openspec view to show updated dashboard
   • Confirms change is archived and specs are updated

Error Handling

• If no active change: Guide user to use /openspec:work
• If openspec archive fails: Show error and suggest checking change validity
• If CHANGELOG.md doesn't exist: Create it with standard format
• If active.json clear fails: Warn but continue (non-critical)

Example Usage

Scenario 1: All tasks complete

User: /openspec:done
Assistant: [Checks tasks.md - all complete ✓]
          Would you like to save a final checkpoint? (y/n)
User: y
Assistant: [Runs checkpoint flow]
          [Runs openspec archive add-dark-mode]
          [Clears active.json]
          ✓ Change archived successfully!
          [Shows next steps]

Scenario 2: Tasks incomplete

User: /openspec:done
Assistant: ⚠️  Not all tasks are complete!

          Remaining tasks: 3
          - [ ] Add localStorage persistence
          - [ ] Write tests for theme toggle
          - [ ] Update documentation

          Options:
          1. Continue anyway (not recommended)
          2. Cancel and finish tasks
          3. Save checkpoint and resume later

          What would you like to do?
User: 2
Assistant: Cancelled. Use /openspec:status to see remaining work.

Notes

• This command wraps openspec archive with pre/post checks
• Clears active.json so SessionStart hook doesn't load old context
• Encourages final checkpoint for documentation
• Guides user through commit process
• Ensures clean state for starting next change
