Install

Works with every agent the skills CLI supports.

npx skills add https://github.com/camacho/ai-skills --skill archive
  1. 01

    Install

    Run the command in your project. The CLI asks which agents to install for.

  2. 02

    Describe the task

    Ask your agent for something this skill covers. It loads archive automatically when relevant.

  3. 03

    Review the result

    The agent follows the SKILL.md steps, scripts and references bundled with the skill.

SKILL.md

The instructions your agent reads when the skill is triggered.

Inputs

  • WORKTREE: absolute path to current worktree (resolve from session CWD or git rev-parse --show-toplevel)
  • Plan file path (default: most recent non-.done.md in $WORKTREE/ai-workspace/plans/)

Steps

  1. Find the plan file:

    ls -t "$WORKTREE/ai-workspace/plans/"*.md | grep -v '.done.md' | head -1

    If plan is already .done.md → error: "Already archived."

  2. Read the plan file to understand what was planned.

  3. Gather outcomes: Ask the user (or infer from git log + branch context):

    • What worked well?
    • What didn't go as planned?
    • What would you do differently?

    If user skips → write "Outcomes: not recorded" (don't block).

  4. Write Outcomes & Learnings section to the plan file:

    ## Outcomes & Learnings

**Completed**: [date]

### What Worked
- [bullet points]

### What Didn't
- [bullet points]

### Learnings
- [bullet points]

  5. Rename to .done.md:

    git -C "$WORKTREE" mv ai-workspace/plans/<name>.md ai-workspace/plans/<name>.done.md

  6. Commit the archive:

    git -C "$WORKTREE" add ai-workspace/plans/<name>.done.md
git -C "$WORKTREE" commit -m "docs: archive plan <name>

Co-Authored-By: Claude <model>"

Output: Confirmation that the plan is archived with path to .done.md file.
