SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires Read, Bash, Grep, Glob, and includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

The gsd-verifier Skill ensures that project phases achieve their intended goals not just through task completion, but by thorough verification of the outcomes.

Core Features & Use Cases

Goal-Backward Verification: Checks if the codebase delivers on the phase promises rather than just completing tasks.
Code Quality Assurance: Validates the presence, functionality, and integration of all required components.
Use Case: When you need to verify the successful execution of a phase and ensure the end goal of the project is being met, use gsd-verifier to analyze and validate the codebase against defined goals.

Quick Start

Run 'gsd-verifier verify phase' to start the verification process for the current phase.

FAQPage Schema

How do I verify phase goals are actually met in my codebase?▼

To verify phase goals, use a goal-backward analysis approach that checks if codebase artifacts deliver on phase promises rather than just confirming task completion. It validates the presence, substance, and integration of required components.

What is goal-backward analysis for software quality assurance?▼

Goal-backward analysis is a verification method that checks whether the codebase delivers on predefined phase promises. It validates the presence, functionality, and integration of all required components to ensure quality assurance.

How do I check if specific code artifacts and components are properly integrated?▼

You can check artifact integration by running verification scripts that utilize Bash, Grep, and file system Glob operations. These tools validate the presence and substance of required components directly within the codebase.

Can I use shell scripts and grep to automate code verification checks?▼

Yes, you can automate code verification using various scripting languages alongside Bash and Grep. This automates the validation of development phases by performing checks for the presence and substance of artifacts.

When do I need to run phase validation on my software project?▼

You need to run phase validation when you want to verify the successful execution of a development phase. It ensures the end goal of the project is being met by analyzing and validating the codebase against defined goals.
