SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Claiming work as complete without verification is dishonest and risky; this skill enforces evidence-based completion by requiring fresh verification outputs before any success claim.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Enforces a step-by-step verification workflow before status changes.
  • Requires executing verification commands, inspecting full outputs, and validating exit codes.
  • Works across development, testing, release, and QA to prevent premature completion reports.

Quick Start

Run the verification workflow on your latest task to collect fresh outputs and attach evidence before making any completion claim.

Frequently Asked Questions about verification-before-completion

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I verify task completion with fresh evidence before reporting success?

Verify completion with fresh evidence by identifying the proving command, running it fully, reading the entire output and exit code, and only reporting success after confirmation. This enforces evidence-based completion for software development and QA checks.

What is evidence-based verification in CI pipelines and QA workflows?

Evidence-based verification requires executing verification commands, inspecting full outputs, and validating exit codes before making any completion claim. It prevents premature success reports by demanding unambiguous verification evidence across development, testing, and release stages.

How to prevent premature completion claims in software development?

Prevent premature completion claims by enforcing a step-by-step verification workflow before status changes. Require performing verification steps, collecting unambiguous evidence from command outputs, and validating exit codes before allowing any success claim.

Does verification-before-completion work for CI pipelines and QA checks?

Yes, verification-before-completion works across CI pipelines, QA checks, development, and release workflows. It is applicable to any task where progress claims must be backed by fresh verification evidence collected from command outputs and exit codes.

What's the best way to enforce code review verification before status changes?

The best way to enforce code review verification is requiring a step-by-step workflow that executes verification commands, reads full outputs, validates exit codes, and attaches fresh evidence before any completion claim or status change occurs.

Why does claiming work as complete without verification cause issues?

Claiming work as complete without verification is dishonest and risky because it lacks fresh verification evidence. Enforcing evidence-based completion by running verification commands and validating exit codes prevents inaccurate progress claims in software development and QA.
