Retire a closed issue's working artifacts out of specs/ into the GitHub wiki. Use only when the user asks to archive a finished issue, empty out specs/ for a done task, or move an issue's requirements/architecture/tasks/review/QA docs to the wiki.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Archive Issue

Once an issue closes, GitHub is the source of truth for its scope — but its requirements,
architecture, code-review, and QA docs under `specs/` still hold reasoning worth keeping. This
skill retires them out of `specs/` straight into the GitHub wiki. **Nothing archived is ever
committed to the main repo** — the wiki is the only place this content lives.

This skill resolves everything from the issue number alone via `gh issue view` plus the
artifact naming contract (`REQ-<N>-<slug>.md` / `ARCH-<N>-<slug>.md` / `TASKS-<N>-<slug>.md` /
`QA-<N>-<slug>.md` / `QA-RESULTS-<N>-<slug>.md` and the `> **Issue:** #N` metadata row) that
`plan-requirements`, `plan-architecture`, `generate-tasks`, `plan-qa`, and `execute-qa` write. There is no separate anchor file — GitHub already holds the title,
URL, and state.

**Declared dependency:** matching review reports to this issue reads the `Target` metadata
row defined in `review/report-template.md:8`. If that row's format ever changes, review
discovery here breaks — see Step 2's failure behavior for what happens when it does.

## Step 0 — Ensure the local wiki clone is current

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add foyzulkarim/skills/archive-issue@sha256:7061b2d5cb925e9c

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260823.71acb2d, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
