+   - Anything else — ask again rather than archiving
+
+   Before step 8 writes the first main spec or moves any change, fetch every

+   identify the affected change, report the error, and stop the whole batch before
+   any main-spec write or change move. Do not treat lookup failure as omitted
+   rules. A valid response without \`rules\` is the no-rules case.
+
 8. **Execute archive for each confirmed change**
 
+   Before processing, carry the recorded decisions from step 5 (after any step 7 re-derivation) into two per-delta sets:
+   - \`includedDeltas\`: all non-conflicting delta specs from confirmed changes plus conflict deltas selected for sync
+   - \`excludedDeltas\`: conflict deltas from confirmed changes excluded because their implementation is missing
+   - A single change can have both included and excluded delta specs. Keep the decision per delta; do not collapse it into a per-change sync flag.
+
    Process changes in the determined order (respecting conflict resolution):
 
-   a. **Sync specs** if delta specs exist:
-      - Use the openspec-sync-specs approach (agent-driven intelligent merge)
-      - For conflicts, apply in resolved order
-      - Track if sync was done
+   a. **Sync included delta specs**:
+      - Run the \`openspec-sync-specs\` workflow inline (agent-driven intelligent merge) only for changes with entries in \`includedDeltas\`, passing only the included delta paths and explicitly instructing it to ignore that change's \`excludedDeltas\`. Wait for it to finish.
+      - For conflicts, apply in resolved order.
+      - Pass that change's fetched specs-rule snapshot into inline sync; inline
+        sync must reuse it without fetching instructions again
+      - Apply artifact rules only to main specs produced by that change. They do
+        not change conflict resolution, archive behavior, or CLI contracts, and
+        their text is not copied into an output file
+      - Do not delegate to a background task — step 8c would move \`changeRoot\` out from under a sync that is still reading it.
+      - If a change has no included delta specs, do not run the sync workflow for it.
+
+   b. **Verify included delta specs before moving changeRoot**:
+      - Re-run the comparison only for delta specs in \`includedDeltas\` against main spec at \`<planningHome.root>/openspec/specs/<capability>/spec.md\` (use the store-aware \`planningHome.root\` from step 3 status JSON, not a hardcoded repo path).
+      - Verify that main specs are updated:
+        - ADDED requirements present
+        - MODIFIED requirements carrying scenario and description changes named in the delta, with their other scenarios intact
+        - REMOVED requirements gone
+        - RENAMED requirements present under the new name and absent under the old one
+      - Do not verify delta specs in \`excludedDeltas\`; they are intentionally left unsynced.
+      - If sync failed or any capability does not match verification, report what differs and fail/skip moving that change's \`changeRoot\` — do not archive that change. \`changeRoot\` remains intact.
+
+   c. **Perform the archive**:
+
+      Target name: use the change name as-is when it already starts with a \`YYYY-MM-DD-\` prefix; otherwise prepend the current date as \`YYYY-MM-DD-<name>\` (same rule as \`openspec archive\`).

-      mv "<changeRoot>" "<planningHome.changesDir>/archive/YYYY-MM-DD-<name>"

 - Skip spec sync only when implementation is missing (warn user)

 - Use single confirmation for entire batch

 - Track and report all outcomes (success/skip/fail)
 - Preserve .openspec.yaml when moving to archive

+- Archive directory target uses current date: YYYY-MM-DD-<name>; a name that already starts with a \`YYYY-MM-DD-\` prefix is used as-is (never stack a second date)
+- If archive target exists, fail that change but continue with others
+- If sync is requested, run the \`/opsx:sync\` workflow inline (agent-driven) for each change with included delta specs
+- Carry the per-delta \`includedDeltas\` and \`excludedDeltas\` decisions into execution; sync and verify only included deltas
+- Report every excluded delta as \`sync skipped\` without treating the archive itself as skipped
+- Never archive a change while a spec sync is still in flight — run the sync inline and verify main specs at \`<planningHome.root>/openspec/specs/<capability>/spec.md\` before moving \`changeRoot\`
+- Fetch archive inputs once per selected root before spec inspection or moves
+- Fetch all required specs-rule snapshots before the batch's first main-spec write or move
+- A failed archive-inputs lookup never blocks the batch; it proceeds with no context or guidance
+- A failed specs instruction lookup stops the whole batch atomically
+- Changes without concrete \`artifactPaths.specs.existingOutputPaths\` continue without spec sync
+- Apply relevant runtime context across the batch and report conflicts
+- Operation guidance remains advisory; consider every entry and explain rejected advice
+- Keep runtime inputs, conflict analysis, CLI-derived values, and artifact rules separate
+- Artifact rules constrain only written specs
+- Never copy runtime input or artifact-rule text verbatim into output files`
