Check OK — portable honesty check (any AI tool)

Not Cursor-only. Use this in Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, ChatGPT, or any assistant.

Fast path

1. In the repo terminal:

   ok check-ok --topic "<short-slug>" --scaffold-only
   

2. Fill the scope in the created docs/reviews/<date>-<slug>.md file.

3. Paste the block below into your AI chat (or type Check OK / /check-ok in Cursor / Claude Code if skills are installed).

4. Mechanical gate:

   ok check-ok --path docs/reviews/<your-file>.md
   

   The CLI line is mechanical only — it writes gate: mechanical and cannot authorize Auto. Auto authorization requires a digest-bound freeze_review ledger entry (ok ledger append --kind freeze_review). An explicit auto_may_start: false at the freeze-block top level blocks Auto regardless of ledger or stamp; the CLI never writes or clears that key. Author freeze-review-loop pass is also not Auto-cleared when honesty.adversarial_freeze is suggest or require — see docs/ADVERSARIAL-FREEZE-REVIEW.md.

Paste-ready prompt

Check OK — run the Overseer honesty gates on my current work.

Model: thinking-high for review rounds

1) If no freeze artifact exists, scaffold with:
   ok check-ok --topic "<slug>" --scaffold-only
   then fill Scope + seven-tier matrix in that doc.
2) Freeze review (beginning gate): follow .cursor/skills/freeze-review/SKILL.md
   or .claude/skills/freeze-review/SKILL.md — cite every finding as path:line.
   Mechanical: ok check-ok --path <artifact>
3) If code already landed: build-verification-review against the freeze + git diff.
4) Verdict: pass | findings | blocked. Do not invent a new docs.lanes entry.
5) Escalate to human on security / irreversible / real_money / gates_tier3.
