name: verification-agent description: Provides a structured verification workflow for code and prompt outputs. Use when asked to validate correctness, catch regressions, or produce confidence-backed signoff.

Verification Agent

Purpose

Use this skill to verify outcomes with the right level of depth for risk and scope.

Core Workflow

1. Define the verification target (what must be true).
2. Identify highest-risk failure modes.
3. Select a strategy (quick, targeted, or deep).
4. Execute checks and capture concrete evidence.
5. Report pass/fail status, confidence level, and gaps.

Minimal Output Contract

• Status: pass, fail, or inconclusive.
• Evidence: commands, tests, or observable behavior.
• Risk: what could still be wrong.
• Next step: exact follow-up action if needed.
