Use when re-engaged to "act on" or "fix the rest of" a review, audit, or recommendation list — the list is not a to-do list. Re-read each item's own disposition first and bucket them; some are explicitly marked no-fix, some need a human decision, some are scale-gated. Triggers on "fix the findings", "address the review", "do the rest of the recommendations", "apply the audit", "action these items", and acting on any list you or someone else produced earlier.
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
# A Findings List Is Not a To-Do List **Type:** Open-source — client-agnostic methodology, no project-specific detail. **Created by akbarsha — https://github.com/iamakbarsha1** No logged failure behind this one — the rule comes from a near-miss: "fix the rest of the findings" read as a flat queue, and items the review itself had marked "no fix required" were nearly implemented with the real ones.

If the problem is the agent not following a rule below rather than the rule itself, that's an execution failure — acknowledge and correct it. ## The core rule A review, audit, or recommendation list records findings with DISPOSITIONS — not a flat queue of tasks to execute. "Fix the rest" does not mean "implement every remaining item." Some items are explicitly marked no-fix or accepted; …

How to install
mdr add iamakbarsha1/whetstone/findings-list-is-not-a-todo-list@sha256:ef1b1f52c8128644The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261019.1c6c6b4, 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.
