Captain: A ticked box is a promise. Show me the work behind it.

ExamplesCopy Anchor Link

items.all=checkedCopy Anchor Link

Require every box to be checked — e.g. a pre-merge checklist that must be fully completed. An unchecked item ending in (N/A: <reason>) (the item does not apply here) counts as honestly disposed.

items.all=done-or-naCopy Anchor Link

Require every item to be honestly disposed — done (checked, with evidence) or N/A (the item does not apply, with a reason). Work not done stays unticked as (not done: <reason>) and fails. A bare tick is an error; evidence too vague to check is a warning. The recommended successor to items.all=checked.

items.none=bare-tickCopy Anchor Link

Forbid bare ticks: a checked item must record evidence (a bare tick is an error, vague evidence a warning), while an honest unchecked item, with or without (not done: <reason>), still passes. The gentler sibling of items.all=done-or-na.

items.all=@evidence/specificCopy Anchor Link

Require every list item to be specific and checkable — verifiable claims, not token gestures. Heuristic, so it warns by default; harden with error=vague-evidence.

✗ vague-evidence warn · line 3

items.all=@evidence/citedCopy Anchor Link

Require every list item to carry a resolvable citation (link, reference, or footnote). Deterministic, so it errors by default; soften with warn=missing-citation. A true-but-uncitable claim ends with (attested: <who/how>) instead.
