Lemma 15.90.8. Let $A$ be a ring and $I \subset A$ an ideal. If $A$ is $I$-adically complete then any pseudo-coherent object of $D(A)$ is derived complete.

Proof. Let $K$ be a pseudo-coherent object of $D(A)$. By definition this means $K$ is represented by a bounded above complex $K^\bullet $ of finite free $A$-modules. Since $A$ is $I$-adically complete, it is derived complete (Lemma 15.90.3). It follows that $H^ n(K)$ is derived complete for all $n$, by part (1) of Lemma 15.90.6. This in turn implies that $K$ is derived complete by part (2) of the same lemma. $\square$

I find it weird to phrase the assumption as being -adically complete. Here what we really need is being derived -complete.

This is a good point! I will strengthen the lemma in the way you mention the next time I go through all the comments. Thanks.
