In `@skills/openspec-archive-change/SKILL.md`:
- Line 122: The specification writer should preserve the existing title as the
first line and ensure ## Purpose appears immediately after it, rather than
requiring ## Purpose to begin the file. Update the file-format requirement and
generation behavior around the archive workflow so missing Purpose content is
inserted after the title without reordering existing specification content.
- Line 122: Update the archive-writing flow in the openspec-archive-change skill
to validate the `## Purpose` section body, requiring a non-empty description of
one or two sentences. When the body is missing or fails that format, regenerate
it from the spec content before writing the file; preserve valid Purpose
sections unchanged.
- Around line 189-190: Update the archive workflow template in archive-change.ts
with the validation and Purpose-generation instructions currently present in
SKILL.md, then regenerate SKILL.md so it matches the template exactly. Run the
specified skill parity test to verify the generated file.

Two blockers:
-
This edits only the generated skills/openspec-archive-change/SKILL.md. The source template in src/core/templates/workflows/archive-change.ts is unchanged, so pnpm generate:skills will erase the change. The hosted parity test fails on Linux, macOS, and Windows for exactly this reason. Put the behavior in the archive workflow template, keep both the skill and OPSX command surfaces aligned, regenerate the committed skill, and run test/core/templates/skillssh-parity.test.ts plus the template parity tests.
-
The new Purpose repair rule changes established behavior. For an existing main spec, the Purpose is authoritative and sync/archive deliberately leave it untouched. For a new main spec, archive copies the delta Purpose verbatim and only warns when it is shorter than strict validation expects. Line 123 instead tells the agent to regenerate any Purpose outside exactly 1-2 sentences, so a requirement-only archive can silently rewrite unrelated authored prose. See src/core/templates/workflows/sync-specs.ts and the Delta Purpose scenarios in openspec/specs/cli-archive/spec.md. Please preserve existing Purpose text and the current new-spec carry-over behavior. If the product contract is intentionally changing, it needs a living-spec change and regressions for existing vs new capabilities rather than an instruction-only rewrite.
The canonical Requirements/no-delta-header behavior is already specified by the sync workflow and validated after sync. Reuse that contract rather than adding a second formatter with broader mutation authority.

Reason for Change:
Previous archiving actions using AI resulted in inconsistent spec formatting, outdated delta headers and missing purpose summaries. This update standardizes the output format to match expected OpenSpec conventions, ensuring clean, predictable, and parseable specifications across all archived changes.
Overview
Updates the archive skill to enforce strict formatting and structural consistency for main specification files generated by AI agents during the archiving process. Resolved minor formatting inconsistencies within the archive skill file.
