 ## Procedure
 
-1. Do the `check` skill. All checks must pass before you commit.
-2. Stage only the files that belong to this change. Keep unrelated
+1. Confirm that the configured signing key is available. If signing is
+   unavailable or fails, stop and report the problem. Never disable
+   signing, bypass it with a command or configuration override, or
+   create an unsigned commit.
+2. Do the `check` skill. All checks must pass before you commit.
+3. Stage only the files that belong to this change. Keep unrelated
    changes in separate commits.
-3. Write the message to a file or a here-document and commit with
-   `git commit -F`. Never put `\n` in `git commit -m`.
-4. When `.githooks/commit-msg` rejects the message, fix the message and
-   commit again. Do not skip the hook with `--no-verify`.
+4. Write the complete message to a file, including all trailers. Add
+   trailers with `git interpret-trailers --trailer` before the check,
+   not after it. Never put `\n` in `git commit -m`.
+5. Run `sh .githooks/commit-msg MESSAGE_FILE` on that final file before
+   `git commit`. Fix every failure and run the check again. Sign with
+   the configured key, using `git commit -S -F MESSAGE_FILE` on the same
+   file. Do not add or change trailers after the check. The normal
+   commit hook still runs. Never skip it with `--no-verify`.
+6. Cryptographically verify each new commit's signature against the
+   configured key before reporting completion. A signature header alone
+   is not verification. If verification fails, stop and report it. Do
+   not claim completion or publish the commit.
 
 ## Size
 
 - Commit often. Split the work into small, coherent, working steps, and
   do not wait for a full feature.
-- Before a push, rebase on the latest `master` and fix conflicts during
-  the rebase. Never make a merge commit.
+- Push code only with the user's authorization. A remote does not give
+  permission to push.
+- Rebase before an authorized push only when the task permits it. Do not
+  rewrite published commits without the user's explicit approval. Stop
+  and ask when an operation needs that approval. Never make a merge
+  commit.

 ## Trailers
