What is the difference between abandoned and deferred features?

Abandoned features are marked as 'cancelled' in the database and archived, while deferred features are set to 'draft' status so they remain visible for future resumption.

Where does the skill store archived documentation?

Documentation is moved into a versioned subdirectory (e.g., Archive/v1/, Archive/v2/) within the specific feature's directory to preserve a historical record.

Does this skill delete my source code?

The skill provides an option to delete the git branch after the closure process is complete, but it does not delete code until you confirm. It focuses on archiving documentation and updating metadata.

Can I use this for features I intend to merge?

No, this skill is specifically designed for closure without merging. If you want to integrate code into your main branch, you should use a standard merge or deployment workflow.

Productividad y Flujo de Trabajo

Manages the clean abandonment or deferral of project features by archiving documentation and updating status without merging.

The Feature Close skill provides a structured workflow for handling features that are being abandoned, superseded, or deferred. Instead of leaving stale branches and outdated documentation, this skill automates the cleanup process by versioning and archiving feature docs, updating the project database status to 'cancelled' or 'draft', and managing git branch deletion. It ensures project hygiene and maintains a clear historical record of why specific paths were not taken, making it essential for teams following a structured development lifecycle.
