SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill prevents false completion claims by requiring fresh verification evidence before stating that work is done, fixed, passing, or ready.

Core Features & Use Cases

Evidence-first workflow: Forces the agent to identify, run, read, and confirm the command that proves the claim.
Completion guardrails: Applies before saying a task is finished, a test suite passed, a build succeeded, or a bug was fixed.
Commit and PR readiness: Ensures verification happens before committing, pushing, creating pull requests, or handing work off to another agent.

Quick Start

Before you claim success, run the exact verification command for the task, inspect the full output and exit code, and only report completion if the evidence confirms it.
