"Close" them?  Why do you want to do that?

It seems to me that all you really need to do is ensure that all changes
have been committed, which can be accomplished using "fossil all changes".

Presumably, all of your repos have a default sync partner - probably a
"master" repository on a server someplace.  (At least, that is the way I
work things.  I have 35 projects currently going on my desktop, all of
which are mirrored on one of two servers I control in the cloud.)  In that
case, all you need to do before leaving work is "fossil all changes" to
look for uncommitted changes.  Then when you get to home, just do "fossil
al sync" to pull all the changes from work down to your home machine.
Nothing needs to be closed.  When heading back to work, just do "fossil all
changes" on your home machine to make sure you have committed everything,
then "fossil all sync" when you get back to the office.

The scenario above is exactly why I invented "fossil all".  :-)
