feat(kanban): archive terminal items daily (D3, #1272) - #88
Merged
Conversation
Nothing archives terminal work today - the reconcile only moves non-terminal items. At ~800 merges/month into Prod the board re-bloats within weeks (the D3 one-time archive of 3,000 items was a snapshot, not a mechanism). New daily workflow sweeps every un-archived item in Prod/Cancelled and archives it (retained + searchable, not deleted). Archives by column membership, never by age. workflow_dispatch + dry-run for manual runs. Closestracebloc/backend#1272 Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>

A push routinely carries commits that already shipped further down the pipeline: a staging->develop back-merge re-pushes Prod PRs to develop, and a develop==main fast-forward does the same. advance-deploy-env blindly set every PR in the push to the branch's column, un-shipping those cards (seen live: .github #87/#88/#89/#92 stranded at On dev after yesterday's ff, #95 demoted from Prod today; engine#540's back-merge would demote its whole staging history next). Now the per-PR query also reads the current Status and the update is skipped unless the target rank is strictly higher. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Summary
Implements RFC-BACKEND-0008 D3 (continuous archiving) — the missing mechanism. Today nothing archives terminal work:
kanban-reconcileonly relocates non-terminal items, so Prod/Cancelled accumulate and the board re-bloats (~800/month). The 3,000-item archive earlier was a one-time snapshot.kanban-archive.ymlruns daily (05:00 UTC, after the reconcile), pages the org project, and archives every un-archived item in Prod or Cancelled. Archived items are retained + searchable — this hides done work, it doesn't delete it. Archives by column membership, never by age (age is unusable here — retired auto-classify rewroteupdatedAt).workflow_dispatch+dry-runinput for a safe manual preview.Test plan
gh workflow run "Kanban archive" -f dry-run=trueto preview the count, then a real run.Closes tracebloc/backend#1272
Note
Medium Risk
Automated mutations on the org kanban project can hide misclassified items from the active board, though dry-run and per-item failure handling limit blast radius.
Overview
Adds RFC-BACKEND-0008 D3 continuous archiving via a new
Kanban archiveGitHub Actions workflow so terminal board items do not pile up after reconcile.The workflow runs daily at 05:00 UTC (after
kanban-reconcile) and onworkflow_dispatch, usingPROJECTS_KANBAN_TOKENagainst org project #2. It pages all project items, selects un-archived rows whose Status is Prod or Cancelled, and callsarchiveProjectV2Itemfor each (items stay searchable; they are hidden from the active board). Selection is by column membership only, not age. Adry-runinput logs how many items would be archived without mutating; failures per item emit warnings and a step summary reports ok/fail counts.Reviewed by Cursor Bugbot for commit b03a2b4.
