# Status

Give a tight status update on the current work. **Do not start new work.**

Report:

- **Done** - what is complete. Note whether it has been verified, cite the check result when one
  exists, or mark it as done and awaiting verification when a check has not run yet.
- **In progress** - what is mid-way through.
- **Blocked / needs input** - anything that genuinely needs a decision, credentials, or an external
  unblock. If nothing, say "nothing blocked".
- **Next** - the next one to three concrete steps, without starting them.

Keep it concise: one to three lines per section. If you are waiting on a long-running command or a
background agent, name it and the signal you are waiting for. Do not start new long-running work
solely to produce a richer status report.
