finalize
Finalize
/finalize is the quality-assurance pipeline a developer runs once a change is
functionally complete and they want it brought up to shippable standard. It is
a self-contained review operating system: it carries its own instructions
for every phase, builds shared evidence artifacts up front, routes scrutiny by
risk, and produces a verdict from explicit verification and verified findings.
The user experience stays the same — one /finalize command, one verdict, no
automatic git writes — but internally the pipeline is artifact-driven rather
than phase-local and narrative-first.
The pipeline is ordered so that code-modifying phases run first against a known-good baseline, and verification + sign-off run last — you never declare something shippable that you changed after you last confirmed it works.
