SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill eliminates hallucinations and subtle bugs by converting informal or "lazy" developer prompts into a disciplined, independently verified implementation using a four-stage verification workflow.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Four-stage CoVe protocol: Produce an unverified draft, enumerate verification targets, perform independent adversarial and semantic verifications, and output a final verified solution.
  • Stack-specific verification checklists: Ready-made guides for React/Next.js, TanStack Query, tRPC, Prisma, TypeScript, async/concurrency, and common backend patterns.
  • Adversarial & line-by-line audits: Includes adversarial test scenarios, constraint-driven checks, differential reasoning, and explicit change lists to reduce regression risk.
  • Use Case: Turn a brief request like "add pagination to the users table" into a complete implementation plus a verification plan, independent audits, and a corrected final solution ready for user review.

Quick Start

Run the cove skill with a concise task like "add pagination to the users table" to receive a full four-stage verification flow.

FAQPage Schema
How do I verify code generated from informal developer prompts?

To verify code generated from informal developer prompts, apply a four-stage protocol: generate a draft, enumerate verification targets, execute independent adversarial and line-by-line audits, and output a final corrected solution. This eliminates subtle bugs and hallucinations before user review.

What is the four-stage verification protocol for reliable code generation?

The four-stage verification protocol is a structured workflow that drafts an implementation, creates a verification plan, performs independent adversarial and semantic checks, and outputs a final verified solution. It ensures correctness across stacks like React, Next.js, tRPC, and Prisma.

Does this code verification workflow support React and Prisma?

Yes, this code verification workflow supports React, Next.js, tRPC, and Prisma. It applies stack-specific verification checklists containing adversarial test scenarios and constraint-driven checks to ensure correctness across these specific frameworks and backend patterns.

How do I debug code with independent adversarial tests?

To debug code with independent adversarial tests, enumerate specific verification targets and execute constraint-driven checks against your implementation. Perform differential reasoning and line-by-line audits to identify regressions, producing a final corrected solution for review.

What is the best way to prevent hallucinations in generated code?

The best way to prevent hallucinations in generated code is converting brief requests into a disciplined workflow that includes an unverified draft followed by explicit verification targets, independent semantic audits, and a final corrected solution presented for human review before commits.
