name: verification-gate description: Run a read-only verification pass after implementation to check whether completion claims are real, validation actually ran, and obvious edge cases or regressions were missed.

Verification Gate

Use this skill when the implementation should not be accepted without a separate challenge pass.

Use It For

• post-implementation verification
• checking whether claimed tests really ran
• finding edge cases before reporting completion
• converting "looks done" into "verified" or "unverified"

Quick Start

Collect a verification context from a git repo:

python3 {baseDir}/scripts/verification_context.py --repo /path/to/repo

Then run the portable verifier prompt from references/prompt-template.md.

Verifier Rules

• default to read-only
• findings first
• never imply validation ran if it did not
• distinguish verified, unverified, and failed
