Detect: caller passed `<NODE_ID>` — must be T2 or T1, status `done`. Refuse otherwise. 2. **Read** the node + all descendants (Stories, Tasks). 3. **Compose** archive summary: - One-line intent - Children summary (id, status, AC count, completion date) - Acceptance criteria roll-up (passed/total per Story) - Total tasks (done/discarded/skipped) - Trace size + hallucination count (if traces exist) 4. **Write** `.claude/plans/archive/{NODE_ID}.summary.md`. 5. **Optional pruning** (only with `--prune` fla
