Close
Use this skill as an explicit escape hatch to manually archive a Steward case.
First Step
Read ../../shared/protocol.md before acting. Treat it as the source of truth for case file discovery, close behavior, update rules, and output.
Gate
Run only the close gate.
Behavior
- Freeze the final verdict, verification status, limits, and follow-ups.
- Set status to
closed. - Clear the current pointer if it points to this case file.
- Warn if the case is already closed.
- If no valid case file exists, say no current case exists; do not auto-create a case only to close it.
- Do not run another gate.
- Do not implement product or code changes.
Output
Use the protocol output contract:
Verdict: <short sentence>
Why: <short paragraph>
Missing evidence: <short list or "None">
Next action: <one concrete next step>
Case file: <absolute path>
