01 / Kit

The Definition of Done Kit

“Basically done” is the most expensive phrase in technical work. This kit makes done mean something.

The skill
A SKILL.md for Claude Code, Cursor, or any agent with a rules directory. It refuses to start a build without a written definition of done, and refuses to call work complete until every observable criterion is met with evidence.
The worksheet
The same discipline on one page, for humans. Run it at the start of any build: the decision it unblocks, the owner who receives it, the observable checks, the end date. Print it or save it as a PDF.
