After making all changes to the cask:

• brew cask audit --download {{cask_file}} is error-free.
• brew cask style --fix {{cask_file}} reports no offenses.
• The commit message includes the cask’s name and version.

Additionally, if updating a cask:

• sha256 changed but version stayed the same (what is this?).
  I’m providing public confirmation below.

Additionally, if adding a new cask:

• Named the cask according to the token reference.
• brew cask install {{cask_file}} worked successfully.
• brew cask uninstall {{cask_file}} worked successfully.
• Checked there are no open pull requests for the same cask.
• Checked the cask was not already refused in closed issues.
• Checked the cask is submitted to the correct repo.
