I think these are working, but how do I tell for certain.

If I am in the file with the habit, and I changed it from TODO to DONE,
it stays DONE, and I get an entry in PROPERTIES about 'last repeat',
yeah, seems to be fine.

But if I mark it DONE in the agenda, it stays DONE, I think.  I was
interrupted halfway through, and am not certain what I did.

Should it work the same from the agenda that it does from the file?   I
mean, I don't expect to see it say DONE, I expect it to disappear.

What should I see?

The right way to be using org-habits is not to have tasks that are being
marked as done... they are meant to be repeating tasks.  See:

  [[info:org#Repeated tasks]]

in the orgmode manual to set these up.
