A command that finds projects in a PARA Projects folder that have become inactive, proposes moving them to an archive, and moves them only after confirmation.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to review project folders for inactivity, change the staleness period, and archive confirmed projects.
Why use it?
It helps identify stale projects while preventing accidental file moves through an approval step.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

archive scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 8d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 108 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Archive Command

Scan PARA/1 Projects/ for stale projects, recommend archiving, and execute confirmed moves.

Always shows a plan and asks for confirmation. No files are moved without explicit user approval.

Usage

/para-flow:archive                  → scan, classify, present plan, ask to proceed
/para-flow:archive --since 90       → override staleness threshold (default: 30 days)

Instructions

Step 0: Parse Arguments and Get Time

  1. Parse the argument string:
    • --since N → override the 30-day staleness threshold with N days (see project-lifecycle skill Section 5)
    • No arguments → use default 30-day threshold
  2. Use ~~time MCP to get the current date, time, and day of week (project-lifecycle skill Section 1).

Step 1: Inventory

Use project-lifecycle skill Section 2 (Inventory Rules).

Scan PARA/1 Projects/ and build a registry of all projects, including:

  • Folder names, Jira keys, parent/child relationships
  • Frontmatter status and dates from main .md files
  • Umbrella detection (has sub-project folders)

Step 2: Enrich from Diary

Use project-lifecycle skill Section 3 (Diary Enrichment).

For each project in the registry, search Work Diary/ for mentions of the project name and Jira key. Record the most recent mention date.

Step 3: Enrich from Jira

Use project-lifecycle skill Section 4 (Jira Enrichment).

For projects with Jira keys, query Atlassian MCP for current status, resolution, last update, and assignee. If MCP is unavailable, skip and log a warning.

Step 4: Classify

Use project-lifecycle skill Section 5 (Classification Rules).

Classify each project as ARCHIVE, REVIEW, or ACTIVE based on:

  • Jira terminal statuses (Done/Closed/Merged → always ARCHIVE)
  • Diary mention recency
  • Frontmatter status
  • CLAUDE.md annotations
  • --since N threshold override if provided

Apply the umbrella rule: never classify umbrellas directly, only sub-projects.

Step 5: Present Plan

Use project-lifecycle skill Section 7 (Presentation Format).

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
