# CODE_REVIEW: move-completed-tasks-to-complete-folder

## Reviewed Files

1. `scripts/status.py` -- `_task_dir` fallback (lines 246-249), `cmd_transition` move (lines 601-610)
2. `tests/test_move_completed.py` -- 9 tests
3. `CHANGELOG.md` -- task 9 entry

## Findings

### 1. `_task_dir` fallback

The fallback checks `base / "complete" / task_name` when `base / task_name` doesn't exist. This is correct. The regular path takes priority over the completed path, so active tasks are always found first. Subtask paths (with "/") are not checked against the completed dir -- this is acceptable because subtasks are always parented to active tasks and are never completed independently.

**Verdict:** PASS

### 2. `cmd_transition` move

The move logic:
1. Computes `tasks_root = task_path.parent` -- this is `tasks/` for a regular task
2. Creates `complete_dir = tasks_root / "complete"` -- creates if missing
3. Refuses if `dest` already exists
4. Renames `task_path` to `dest`

One edge case: if a task is `human_intervention` → `complete`, `_auto_update_verdict_on_complete` modifies `VERDICT.md` in `task_path` before the rename. The modified file is then moved to the completed location. Correct.

**Verdict:** PASS

### 3. Test coverage

9 tests cover:
- `_task_dir` regular, fallback, and preference (3 tests)
- `_all_task_dirs` exclusion (1 test)
- Directory move, creation, create-task refusal, transition refusal, state read (5 tests)

**Verdict:** PASS

### 4. Edge cases

- **`--audit` on completed tasks**: Not affected because `_all_task_dirs` doesn't scan `tasks/complete/`.
- **Loop-owned tasks**: If a loop's `current_task` points to a completed task, the audit at line 954 checks `_task_dir(ltask, args.project).exists()` which will find the completed task via fallback. Correct.
- **`--transition` from complete**: `LEGAL_TRANSITIONS.get("complete", [])` returns `[]`, so any transition is refused.
- **`--create-task` with completed name**: `_task_dir` finds the completed path, `task_path.exists()` returns True, and the error is printed. Correct.

**Verdict:** PASS

## Summary

All 4 review areas pass. The implementation is minimal, correct, and well-tested. 9 new tests. Full suite: 433 passed.

**Overall verdict: APPROVED**
