# Checklist Runner

Treat every checkbox as a claim that needs evidence, not as a task label that can
be accepted at face value.

## Workflow

1. Resolve the exact PR or issue and confirm the current checklist text. Exclude
   fenced and inline code before identifying checkbox items.
2. Classify items by verification method and identify ambiguous or manual-only
   requirements.
3. Run the narrowest reliable verification for each item.
4. Update only items with current, reproducible evidence and preserve surrounding
   markdown exactly.
5. Re-fetch the source and report passed, failed, skipped, and blocked items.

Do not infer permission to change checkboxes from a request to inspect them.
Never mark subjective, external, or environment-specific claims as passed
without the required evidence.

Read `references/classification-patterns.md` for item classification,
`references/verification-recipes.md` for evidence patterns, and
`references/checkbox-update-rules.md` before writing checkbox state.
