name: finalize description: > Wrap-up checklist after completing work. Use when: (1) user says "finalize", "wrap up", "are you done?", "did you commit?", or similar, (2) before handoff/end of task, (3) to verify nothing was forgotten. Runs git status check, test/type/lint gates, critical review, and commits remaining changes.

Finalize

Run this checklist before considering work complete.

1. Git Status Check

Copygit status
git diff --stat

If uncommitted changes exist, proceed through remaining steps before committing.

2. Task Completion Check

• Review conversation for any unfinished TODOs or skipped items
• Check TodoWrite list - are all items marked completed?
• If anything incomplete, finish it before proceeding

3. Run Quality Gates

Run project-appropriate checks. Detect from project structure:

Check package.json scripts or project config for actual command names. Fix any failures before proceeding.

4. Critical Self-Review

Review all changes with adversarial mindset:

• Security: injection, auth issues, exposed secrets?
• Edge cases: nil/null, empty collections, boundary conditions?
• Error handling: failures caught and handled appropriately?
• Breaking changes: backwards compatibility maintained?
• Tests: new code has test coverage?

If issues found, fix them. Re-run quality gates after fixes.

5. Commit

If all gates pass and changes look good:

Copygit add -A
git commit -m "<descriptive message with why, not just what>"

Report final status to user.
