The instructions your agent reads when the skill is triggered.
Verification Gate
Use this skill when the implementation should not be accepted without a separate challenge pass.
Use It For
- post-implementation verification
- checking whether claimed tests really ran
- finding edge cases before reporting completion
- converting "looks done" into "verified" or "unverified"
Quick Start
Collect a verification context from a git repo:
python3 {baseDir}/scripts/verification_context.py --repo /path/to/repo
Then run the portable verifier prompt from references/prompt-template.md.
Verifier Rules
- default to read-only
- findings first
- never imply validation ran if it did not
- distinguish verified, unverified, and failed
Supporting Files
- Prompt template: references/prompt-template.md
- Source notes: references/source-notes.md
- Helper script:
python3 {baseDir}/scripts/verification_context.py ...
