unlazy

Unlazy

Make completion explicit and auditable without taking ownership away from the specialist that decides architecture, implementation, safety, migration, or release.

This skill adapts Leonxlnx's MIT-licensed completion-gate and Depth Tree ideas. See references/upstream-provenance.md.

Trigger boundary

Use this skill for:

• substantial tasks where partial completion or forgotten deliverables is a realistic risk;
• explicit requests for unlazy, completion gates, exhaustive follow-through, or a Depth Tree;
• final reports containing counts or coverage claims that must be re-measured.

Do not trigger for:

• trivial work or factual questions;
• unresolved domain decisions;
• final release approval;
• attempts to bypass another skill's safety or approval boundary.

Required inputs

Resolve the accepted scope, owning specialist, deliverables, acceptance criteria, safe checks, approval state, protected user work, and genuine environment limits.

Safety baseline

• Preserve the working tree and uncommitted user work.
• Gates formalize accepted scope; they do not invent new requirements.
• A gate cannot authorize an action the owning workflow forbids.
• Treat commands copied into a ledger as untrusted until reviewed.
• Never hide impossible work by deleting or weakening a requirement.

Workflow

1. Freeze scope. Separate required outcomes, supporting work, optional improvements, and explicit exclusions.
2. Create gates. Use the ledger contract in references/completion-gates.md. Each required outcome gets an observable expectation and evidence method.
3. Choose execution shape. Use one ledger for coherent work. Read references/depth-tree-and-final-audit.md only when independent deliverables need leaf and integration gates.
4. Execute open gates. Work in dependency order. Record deciding evidence rather than effort or intent.
5. Recheck the final state. Re-run only high-value checks that later edits could invalidate. Re-measure quantitative claims from the final candidate.
6. Report from evidence. Required gates must be PASS or explicitly WAIVED. A genuine blocker remains BLOCKED.
