Finalize a merge request: rebase onto main, run bugs, simplify, and specs in parallel, apply, then refactor last. Use when the user asks to finalize, close a PR, or run the review pageant.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Finalize

A pageant, not a swarm. Reviewers are read-only. The parent waits,
edits, then launches the next seat. One pass.

## When

User says `/finalize`, finalize, close the MR, or ready to merge.
Do not run this on a drive-by question.

## 0. Sit on main first

Fetch `origin/main`. Rebase this branch onto it (or merge `main` if
rebase is refused). If the rebase conflicts, stop and ask. Do not
launch reviewers on a stale base.

Then pin what will be reviewed. Commits ahead of `origin/main` and
uncommitted edits both count. A dirty tree is the review subject.
Do not commit it to make a range. Stop only when both are empty.

```bash
git fetch origin main
git merge-base origin/main HEAD
git diff --stat "$(git merge-base origin/main HEAD)"
git diff --stat HEAD
```

Build a `Spec:` block for the specs child, in this order:

1. Specs the user stated in this conversation
2. The PR body / issue, if this is an MR
3. A file the user named as the spec

If none of those exist, still launch specs. It must ask. Do not
drop the seat.

The child scope uses `Diff: branch changes` when the commit range is
non-empty, and `Diff: uncommitted changes` when the work is only in
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add zifeo/lade/finalize@sha256:f2cd55d93856c849

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260929.dad1d5c, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
