SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill prevents premature completion claims by forcing fresh verification before you tell anyone work is done, fixed, or passing.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Evidence-first workflow: Requiring a current command run before any success statement keeps status claims grounded in real output.
  • Completion gates: Useful before marking tasks complete, creating pull requests, committing changes, or handing work off to another agent.
  • Verification discipline: Helps distinguish actual passing tests, builds, and checks from assumptions, partial checks, or stale results.

Quick Start

Use this skill to verify the relevant command output first and only then state whether the work is complete.

FAQPage Schema
How do I prevent false completion claims before creating a pull request?

To prevent false completion claims before a pull request, this Skill mandates running the exact verification command, reading the full output, and confirming a passing result before permitting any success language. It ensures evidence precedes statements that work is done.

What is evidence-first verification for software builds?

Evidence-first verification for software builds is a workflow mechanism that requires a current command run and full output review before any status claim is made. It distinguishes actual passing builds from assumptions or stale results by grounding success language in fresh evidence.

Can I use this verification discipline for agent handoffs and commits?

Yes, you can use this verification discipline for agent handoffs and commits. It applies to any scenario where evidence must precede success language, ensuring that fresh verification confirms the result before work is marked complete or handed off to another agent.

Why does stale test output lead to premature completion claims?

Stale test output leads to premature completion claims because it allows assumptions or partial checks to substitute for actual passing results. This Skill mitigates the issue by requiring a fresh command run and full output confirmation before any statement that work is done.

Does this verification gate require specific testing frameworks or dependencies?

No, this verification gate does not require specific testing frameworks or dependencies. It enforces a process discipline that applies to any testing, builds, or quality assurance commands, requiring you to run the exact proving command and confirm the output before claiming completion.
