SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

The /certify skill prevents new developers or returning consultants from claiming work they do not truly know how to perform by enforcing a structured, 100% passing knowledge gate before they proceed.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Brief → Probe → Gate workflow: runs a fixed brief phase to capture the current context, then a probe against a curated question bank, and finally a strict gate requiring full pass.
  • Zero-assistance discipline: blocks operational assistance during the probe/gate window using a structural guard (lockfile + retrieval block hook) and a required one-sentence refusal for help requests.
  • Cryptographically-integrity-preserving pass receipts: records results via reserved journal slots and appends signed body-anchor coordination-log records to prevent forgery and tampering.
  • Targeted retry loop: if any question fails, the operator re-reads the cited spec section and retries the failed questions until all pass.

Quick Start

Ask the AI to run the certify procedure for a new operator before they claim their first non-trivial work.

FAQPage Schema
How do I enforce a strict knowledge gate for new developer onboarding?

To enforce a strict knowledge gate during onboarding, run a brief-to-probe assessment against a curated question bank that requires a 100% pass before granting work claim readiness. This blocks operators from proceeding until they demonstrate full mastery of the repository's institutional knowledge.

Can I require a 100% passing score before allowing consultants to claim work?

Yes, you can require a 100% passing score before allowing consultants to claim work by running a strict certification gate. The probe assesses mastery of critical rule and spec corpus changes, deferring any operator who fails to achieve a complete pass on the knowledge assessment.

What happens if an operator fails a question during the certification probe?

If an operator fails a question during the certification probe, a targeted retry loop is triggered. The operator must re-read the cited spec section and retry only the failed questions until all answers pass the strict validation gate.

How are certification pass or defer outcomes recorded for tamper prevention?

Certification pass or defer outcomes are recorded using reserved journal slots and cryptographically signed body-anchor coordination logs. This integrity-preserving receipt mechanism prevents forgery and tampering by appending signed records of the assessment results.
