ALWAYS invoke this skill when work wraps up or the user asks how it went - "done or not", "are we done", "what happened", "report", "what's the status of this ticket" - in any language, and when a Stop hook asks for a session report. Produces a ten-line plain- language report: a lead, a checkmark table, and a verdict - fully done, anything needed from you, new debt, safe to close. Every "yes" names its proof; unverified says "not checked". Saves the report so the next session starts from it…

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

# os-done-or-not

One question, one screen: **did the agent finish, and what actually happened**,
in words a reader who does not code will understand. Nothing happened (pure
questions, no files touched) → one line saying so, no report.

## Language

The user's language in this session, detected from the conversation. Translate
every template label. Code, files, commands stay English.

## Step 1 - gather proof that takes seconds

Fast checks only; never re-run the test suite - use results this session
already produced. Not confirmable in seconds, or still running → **"not
checked"**, never "yes".

```bash
git status --porcelain            # uncommitted?
git log --oneline -10             # what landed
git log HEAD --not --remotes --oneline 2>/dev/null | head -20   # unpushed? (no remote: say so)
gh pr view --json state,mergeStateStatus && gh pr checks   # if a PR exists
```

## Step 2 - name the outcome

Sessions end one of eight ways; pick the match **before** writing, or the
report says "fully done: yes" and "safe to close: no" in the same breath.

| # | Outcome | Verdict shape |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Shipped and verified | done Yes · nothing needed · close Yes |

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add kharmanskyi/open-steps/os-done-or-not@sha256:0ce29e57837558c6

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260930.7e255d1, 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.
