What files does the Ralph Archive skill manage?

The skill specifically manages the .ralph/prd.json and .ralph/progress.txt files used by the Ralph agent harness.

How does the skill determine the archive folder name?

It extracts the branchName from your prd.json and converts it into a slug like 'feat-123' or 'bug-456' based on your issue number.

Will I lose my progress if an archive directory already exists?

No. The skill detects existing directories and appends a numeric suffix (e.g., -2, -3) to ensure every run is archived uniquely.

Does this skill create a new PRD after archiving?

No, this skill is strictly for cleaning and archiving. A new PRD is typically generated by the primary Ralph initialization skill.
