Verify that a change really works before you claim completion

v1.0LATEST
NewUpdated Sep 9, 2026

Verify

Use this skill when the user wants confidence that a feature, fix, or refactor actually works.

Goal

Turn vague “it should work” claims into concrete evidence.

Workflow

  1. Identify the exact behavior that must be proven.
  2. Prefer existing tests first.
  3. If coverage is missing, run the narrowest direct verification commands available.
  4. If direct automation is not enough, describe the manual validation steps and gather concrete observable evidence.
  5. Report only what was actually verified.

Verification order

  1. Existing tests
  2. Typecheck / build
  3. Narrow direct command checks
  4. Manual or interactive validation

Rules

  • Do not say a change is complete without evidence.
  • If a check fails, include the failure clearly.
  • If no realistic verification path exists, say that explicitly instead of bluffing.
  • Prefer concise evidence summaries over noisy logs.

Output

  • What was verified
  • Which commands/tests were run
  • What passed
  • What failed or remains unverified

Summary

This skill guides an agent to verify that code changes actually work by following a structured validation workflow. It prioritizes existing tests first, then typechecks/builds, narrow direct commands, and manual validation as fallbacks. The agent reports concrete evidence of what passed or failed rather than making unsupported claims.

Trigger Keywords

Phrases that agents use to match this skill to user intent.

verify change workstest before completionconfirm build succeedsvalidate fixproof of behavior

Use Cases

  • Verify a bug fix works before closing an issue
  • Validate a feature implementation before merging
  • Confirm a refactor didn't break existing behavior
  • Gather evidence that a build succeeds in the current state
  • Document what manual testing steps were performed and their results

Quality Notes

  • Clear, pragmatic workflow with explicit ordering (prefer tests → typecheck → narrow commands → manual)
  • Strong emphasis on evidence-based validation and honest reporting (rules explicitly forbid claiming completion without proof)
  • No explicit edge cases documented (what if tests don't exist? what if build is expensive?)
  • Minimal technical specifics — agent is given principles but limited actionable detail on *how* to verify different project types
  • No guidance on scope boundaries — does this skill apply to all verification needs or only certain contexts?
