SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

In AI-assisted workflows, claiming completion without fresh verification can mislead stakeholders and hide underlying defects. This Skill enforces evidence-based completion to ensure honesty and traceability.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Enforces a structured verification workflow before any completion claim.
  • Guides users to identify the proving command, execute a full run, review outputs and exit codes, and confirm results.
  • Applies to software development, testing, CI pipelines, code reviews, and release readiness where verifiable evidence is required.

Quick Start

Follow the Gate Function steps: identify the proving command, run the full command, read the complete output and exit code, verify the results against the claim, and only then express completion with clear evidence.

FAQPage Schema
How do I verify code completion claims with concrete evidence before asserting success?

Verify completion claims by identifying a proving command, executing a full run, reading complete outputs and exit codes, and confirming results match the claim. This evidence-based verification prevents misleading stakeholders and ensures reproducible reporting.

What is evidence-based verification in software development workflows?

Evidence-based verification requires running explicit commands like tests, builds, and lint checks to produce concrete outputs before claiming success. It ensures transparent, reproducible reporting and prevents unvalidated completion status across development pipelines.

How to enforce a verification gate before marking agent tasks or CI pipelines as complete?

Enforce a verification gate by identifying the proving command, running the full command, reviewing the complete output and exit code, and verifying results against the claim. Only assert completion with clear, fresh evidence.

Can I use this verification approach for code reviews and release readiness checks?

Yes, this verification approach applies to software development, testing, CI pipelines, code reviews, and release readiness. It requires explicit verification steps and evidence before asserting success, ensuring honest and traceable completion.

When do I need to require fresh verification outputs before claiming a build succeeded?

You need fresh verification outputs when completion status must be validated with concrete evidence. Claiming completion without fresh verification misleads stakeholders and hides underlying defects in AI-assisted workflows.

What are the limitations of asserting task completion without explicit verification commands?

Asserting completion without explicit verification commands lacks traceability and reproducibility. Without running fresh tests, builds, or lint checks and reviewing exit codes, underlying defects remain hidden and completion claims are unvalidated.
