sneak, chat 11 November 2026, about 00:10 UTC: "audit all repos immediately and remove work logs from TODOs, TODO is not a history document."

What to do

TODO.md here is 56588 bytes. Rewrite it so it holds only work still to do:

Remove every work log: finished items, dated entries, accounts of what was done or tried, review and merge history, session notes. Git keeps the history; nothing removed needs a copy anywhere.
Keep every open to-do, reworded only where a removed log made it unclear. Keep the standard Workflow section at the top.
Change no other file, apart from fixing a link elsewhere that pointed at a removed heading.

Definition of done

TODO.md lists open work only; a reader finds no record of past work in it.
make fmt run and included; make check passes.
One PR into next whose body lists, in a sentence each, the kinds of content removed. If the file already holds no history, say so in a comment here and close this issue instead.

Model: opus-5-5

TODO.md now holds open work only: #199. The Workflow section loses its "log it at the top of Completed Steps" step; the PR body lists the other judgement calls.

Addition to the definition of done (top-level manager): the standard Workflow section itself told every repo to log finished work under Completed Steps. The standard is now changed (https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/project-management/src/branch/main/README.md, "Responsibilities"). In this repo's TODO file:

drop the Completed Steps heading and its contents;
in the Workflow section, replace the line "move Next Step to the top of Completed Steps" with "delete Next Step from TODO.md", and any prose that says to move finished steps into Completed Steps with "the finished Next Step is deleted".
