New Feature - Phase 8: Cleanup

Archive temporary working files to preserve feature development history.

Prerequisites

• Phase 7 (Documentation) should be complete
• RECOMMENDED: User should commit all changes first
• Required files:
  • ai_working/<feature>-<date>/
  • progress.md

Objectives

• Archive temporary working files for future reference
• Clean up ai_working directory

---

Process

Update TodoWrite:

- [ ] User confirmed changes committed (recommended)
- [ ] Working directory archived
- [ ] Progress updated

Step 1: Confirm Commit (Recommended)

Recommended: Commit before archiving to preserve clean state.

Present to user:

Feature development complete! Ready to archive working documents.

Recommended: Commit all changes before archiving.

Have you committed?
1. Yes, committed - proceed with archiving
2. Let me commit now (use /git:commit)
3. Skip commit, just archive
4. Skip archiving entirely

If option 2, suggest /git:commit, then return here.

Step 2: Archive Working Directory

Archive the working directory to preserve development history:

# Create archive directory if doesn't exist
mkdir -p ai_archive

# Archive the working directory
WORK_DIR="ai_working/<feature>-<date>"
ARCHIVE_DIR="ai_archive/<feature>-<date>"

# Move to archive (preserves all files)
mv "$WORK_DIR" "$ARCHIVE_DIR"

echo "✓ Archived: $ARCHIVE_DIR"

What's preserved:

• 00-discovery.md (project context and patterns)
• 01-requirements.md (decisions and assumptions)
• 02-design.md (alternatives considered, design assumptions)
• 03-test-plan.md (test strategy)
• 04-implementation.md (implementation notes)
• 05-review.md (code review findings)
• 06-manual-test-plan.md (user testing)
• 07-docs-checklist.md (documentation tracking)
• progress.md (complete session history)

Benefits of archiving:

• Future reference for why decisions were made
• Onboarding new developers
• Understanding feature evolution
• Debugging context

Step 3: Update Progress (in Archive)

Update ai_archive/<feature>-<date>/progress.md:

• Mark Phase 8 complete: [✓]
• Update completion: 100%
• Add final session note:

  ### Session X (YYYY-MM-DD) - Feature Complete
  - Archived working documents to ai_archive/
  - Feature fully implemented, tested, and documented
  - **Final Status**: 100% Complete
  

---

Output Files

• Archived working directory: ai_archive/<feature>-<date>/
• Contains all development history and decisions

Feature Complete!

🎉 Feature development complete!

Working documents archived to: ai_archive/<feature>-<date>/

Next steps (if not done):
- Final commit: /git:commit
- Create PR: /git:submit-pr

Feature is fully implemented, tested, and documented.
