GSD ► DEPRECATED
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
This command has been unified into the milestone completion workflow.
**Old workflow (deprecated):**
1. {{COMMAND_PREFIX}}complete-milestone # Mark complete
2. {{COMMAND_PREFIX}}archive-milestone # Move to milestones/ ← YOU ARE HERE
3. {{COMMAND_PREFIX}}restore-milestone # Retrieve from milestones/
**New workflow (unified):**
{{COMMAND_PREFIX}}complete-milestone # Archives directly to history/v{X.Y}/
All milestone files now move directly to `.planning/history/v{X.Y}/`
with mirrored directory structure during completion. Archives are
permanent and git-tracked.
───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
## Why This Changed
The old multi-step workflow created confusion about when files were
truly archived. The new unified workflow moves everything to permanent
history/ storage in a single atomic operation.
**To review archived milestones:**
{{COMMAND_PREFIX}}list-milestones
**To start new milestone:**
{{COMMAND_PREFIX}}new-milestone
