Close Round

Use only after an arcgentic round has an external audit PASS and state.yaml is in passed. Anchors the verdict, runs strict audit-check, transitions passed to closed, and records the last passed round without writing an external audit verdict.

File contents

close-round

Closes an arcgentic round after external audit PASS. This is an orchestrator-owned closeout seam, not a developer or auditor task.

Preconditions

.agentic-rounds/state.yaml has current_round.state: passed.
current_round.audit_verdict.outcome is PASS.
current_round.audit_verdict.commit is set to the audit commit.
The verdict file exists and passes both:
- arcgentic verdict-completeness <verdict.md>
- arcgentic audit-check <verdict.md> --strict --strict-extended

Command

arcgentic close-round \
  --state-file .agentic-rounds/state.yaml \
  --verdict <docs/audits/round-verdict.md> \
  --audit-commit <audit-commit-sha>

Outputs

current_round.state becomes closed.
current_round.state_history gains a closed entry.
last_passed_round records round id, audit commit, verdict doc, and close time.
The command prints a next-round recommendation for the orchestrator.

Boundaries

Do not run before external audit PASS.
Do not write, edit, or replace the external audit verdict.
Do not use close-round to resolve NEEDS_FIX or AUDIT_INCOMPLETE.
Do not perform release tagging, publishing, or next-round planning unless the user explicitly starts that separate orchestrator step.
