SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Prevents unverified completion claims by enforcing fresh verification evidence before merging or releasing results.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Verification gate: require identifying the proof command, running it, and evaluating the output.
  • Evidence capture: log results and attach artifacts to support success claims.
  • Usage scenarios: PR reviews, builds, audits, and release checks where proof of success is required.

Quick Start

Always run verification commands and attach fresh evidence before making any completion claim.

FAQPage Schema
How do I enforce verification before claiming a code task is complete?

You can enforce verification before completion by implementing a gate workflow that identifies the proof command, executes it, reads the output, and verifies the results before making any success claim. This prevents unverified completion claims during PR reviews or builds.

What is a verification gate and how does it work for software audits?

A verification gate requires identifying a proof command, running it, and evaluating the fresh output before allowing any task to be marked as complete. It works by executing the verification, reading the results, and confirming success to prevent unverified completion claims in software audits.

How do I capture evidence for successful build and code review claims?

Capture evidence for build and code review claims by running verification commands and logging the results to support your success claims. This evidence-first approach ensures proof of success is recorded and attached as artifacts before making any completion proclamations.

Can I use a verification gate workflow for both builds and release checks?

Yes, you can use a verification gate workflow for builds, release checks, PR reviews, and audits. The workflow applies to any software task where success claims must be backed by verifiable outputs before a commit or merge is allowed.

What's the best way to prevent unverified completion claims before a merge?

The best way to prevent unverified completion claims before a merge is to implement an evidence-first gate that executes the proof command, reads the results, and verifies them before allowing a completion proclamation. This ensures merge claims are always backed by fresh verification evidence.

Why does a verification gate require fresh evidence before a commit?

A verification gate requires fresh evidence before a commit to prevent unverified completion claims and ensure success claims are backed by verifiable outputs. Executing the proof command and reading the results immediately before the commit guarantees the evidence is current and accurate for the task.
