What is asked

The owner's note: "once I've read it it should disappear from my list … I want to say I've done it and done with this." The seven decisions had no way to say that. The newsletter issue the note was kept on is content already processed, not to be seen again.

Scenario

Given I am on a page I have read
When I tap Done in the pane, or Done at a wire story
Then a note of kind done is kept for that page (or story)
And the page's record in the pane shows Done as its decision
And the page is folded away from the Reading tab
And a decided wire story folds to its headline

Given a page is marked done
When I remove the Done note
Then the page is back on the lists

Mock-up

A first chip, "Done", before Read later; the known block above the chips reads "Done on 2026-10-12 15:49. Read once, last …: you read it all, 9.5p."

Outcome

Shipped in v0.12.1 as the first of eight chips, and as the first decision at a wire story. The Reading tab (006) folds done pages away. Checked by test_notes.mjs.

Screenshots

Done as the page's decision

Back to the board.
