-# Verification Before Completion
-
-## Overview
-
-Claiming work is complete without verification is dishonesty, not efficiency.
-
-**Core principle:** Evidence before claims, always.
-
-**Violating the letter of this rule is violating the spirit of this rule.**
-
-This skill enforces mandatory verification before ANY completion claim, preventing false positives, broken builds, and trust violations.
-
-## When to Use This Skill
-
-Activate ALWAYS before claiming:
-- Success, completion, or satisfaction ("Done!", "Fixed!", "Great!")
-- Tests pass, linter clean, build succeeds
-- Committing, pushing, creating PRs
-- Marking tasks complete or delegating to agents
-
-**Use this ESPECIALLY when:**
-- Under time pressure or tired
-- "Quick fix" seems obvious or you're confident
-- Agent reports success or tests "should" pass
-
-## The Iron Law
-
-```
-NO COMPLETION CLAIMS WITHOUT FRESH VERIFICATION EVIDENCE
-```
-
-If you haven't run the verification command in this message, you cannot claim it passes.
-
-## Core Principles
-
-1. **Evidence Required**: Every claim needs supporting evidence
-2. **Fresh Verification**: Must verify now, not rely on previous runs
-3. **Complete Verification**: Full command, not partial checks
-4. **Honest Reporting**: Report actual state, not hoped-for state
-
-## Quick Start
-
-The five-step gate function:
-
-1. **IDENTIFY**: What command proves this claim?
-2. **RUN**: Execute the FULL command (fresh, complete)
-3. **READ**: Full output, check exit code, count failures
-4. **VERIFY**: Does output confirm the claim?
-   - If NO: State actual status with evidence
-   - If YES: State claim WITH evidence
-5. **ONLY THEN**: Make the claim
-
-Skip any step = lying, not verifying.
-
-## Key Patterns
-
-**Correct Pattern:**
-```
-✅ [Run pytest] [Output: 34/34 passed] "All tests pass"
-```
-
-**Incorrect Patterns:**
-```
-❌ "Should pass now"
-❌ "Looks correct"
-❌ "Tests were passing"
-❌ "I'm confident it works"
-```
-
-## Red Flags - STOP Immediately
-
-If you catch yourself:
-- Using "should", "probably", "seems to"
-- Expressing satisfaction before verification
-- About to commit/push/PR without verification
-- Trusting agent success reports
-- Relying on partial verification
-
-**ALL of these mean: STOP. Run verification first.**
-
-## Why This Matters
-
-**Statistics from real-world failures:**
-- Verification cost: 2 minutes
-- Recovery cost: 120+ minutes (60x more expensive)
-- 40% of unverified "complete" claims required rework
-
-**Core violation:** "If you lie, you'll be replaced"
-

-
-## The Bottom Line
-
-**No shortcuts for verification.**
-
-Run the command. Read the output. THEN claim the result.
-
-This is non-negotiable.

-# The Gate Function
-
-The gate function is the mandatory checkpoint before ANY completion claim.
-
-## The Complete Gate Function
-
-```
-BEFORE claiming any status or expressing satisfaction:
-
-1. IDENTIFY: What command proves this claim?
-2. RUN: Execute the FULL command (fresh, complete)
-3. READ: Full output, check exit code, count failures
-4. VERIFY: Does output confirm the claim?
-   - If NO: State actual status with evidence
-   - If YES: State claim WITH evidence
-5. ONLY THEN: Make the claim
-
-Skip any step = lying, not verifying
-```
-
-## Step-by-Step Breakdown
-
-### Step 1: IDENTIFY
-
-**What to identify:**
-- The exact command that proves your claim
-- Not a related command
-- Not a partial command
-- The FULL verification command
-
-**Examples:**
-
-| Claim | Verification Command |
-|-------|---------------------|
-| "Tests pass" | `pytest tests/` (full suite) |
-| "Build succeeds" | `make build` (complete build) |
-| "Linter clean" | `ruff check .` (all files) |
-| "Bug fixed" | Reproduce original bug (full reproduction) |
-| "Requirements met" | Line-by-line checklist (all requirements) |
-
-**Common Mistakes:**
-- ❌ Identifying related but insufficient command
-- ❌ Identifying partial verification
-- ❌ Identifying old verification results
-- ❌ Can't identify verification → Claim invalid
-
-### Step 2: RUN
-
-**How to run:**
-- Execute the COMPLETE command
-- Fresh execution (not cached results)
-- Full scope (not subset)
-- Right here, right now (not "I ran it earlier")
-
-**Requirements:**
-- Use exact command identified in Step 1
-- Run in correct environment
-- Include all parameters/flags
-- Wait for complete execution
-
-**Common Mistakes:**
-- ❌ Running partial command
-- ❌ Using cached/previous results
-- ❌ Running related but different command
-- ❌ Assuming results without running
-
-**Examples:**
-
-✅ **Correct:**
-```bash
-# Full test suite, right now
-pytest tests/
-```
-
-❌ **Incorrect:**
-```bash
-# Only one test file
-pytest tests/test_auth.py
-
-# Previous run (stale)
-"I ran tests 10 minutes ago"
-
-# Related but not sufficient
-ruff check .  # This is linter, not tests
-```
-
-### Step 3: READ
-
-**What to read:**
-- COMPLETE output, not just summary
-- Exit code (0 = success, non-zero = failure)
-- Count of passes/failures
-- Error messages if any
-- Warnings if any
-
-**How to read:**
-- Scroll through entire output
-- Don't skip "boring" parts
-- Check final status line
-- Verify exit code
-- Count specific numbers
-
-**Common Mistakes:**
-- ❌ Reading only summary
-- ❌ Skipping error details
-- ❌ Ignoring warnings
-- ❌ Not checking exit code
-- ❌ Assuming from first few lines
-
-**Examples:**
-
-✅ **Correct Reading:**
-```
-pytest tests/
-...
-[complete output]
-...
-====== 34 passed in 2.45s ======
-Exit code: 0
-
-Conclusion: 34 tests, ALL passed, 0 failed
-```
-
-❌ **Incorrect Reading:**
-```
-pytest tests/
-[output appears...]
-"Looks like tests are passing"  ← Didn't read to end
-```
-
-### Step 4: VERIFY
-
-**Verification questions:**
-1. Does output match claim exactly?
-2. Are there any failures/errors?
-3. Is exit code 0 (success)?
-4. Are counts what expected?
-5. Are there warnings to address?
-
-**Decision tree:**
-```
-Output confirms claim?
-├─ YES → Proceed to Step 5 (claim with evidence)
-└─ NO  → Report actual status with evidence
-    - Don't claim success
-    - Report what actually happened
-    - Include evidence of actual state
-```
-
-**Examples:**
-
-✅ **Output Confirms Claim:**
-```
-Claim: "All tests pass"
-Output: "34 passed, 0 failed"
-Exit Code: 0
-Verification: YES → Safe to claim
-```
-
-❌ **Output Contradicts Claim:**
-```
-Claim: "All tests pass"
-Output: "31 passed, 3 failed"
-Exit Code: 1
-Verification: NO → Cannot claim
-Correct response: "31/34 tests pass, 3 failing: test_auth, test_db, test_api"
-```
-
-### Step 5: CLAIM
-
-**Only reach this step if:**
-- ✅ Identified correct verification
-- ✅ Ran complete command
-- ✅ Read full output
-- ✅ Output confirms claim
-
-**How to claim:**
-```
-[Evidence] + [Claim]
-
-Example: "All 34 tests pass (pytest output: 34/34 passed, exit 0)"
-```
-
-**Structure:**
-1. State the evidence first
-2. Then make the claim
-3. Include specific numbers
-4. Reference verification command
-
-**Examples:**
-
-✅ **Correct Claims:**
-```
-"pytest output: 34/34 passed → All tests pass"
-"make build: exit 0, dist/ created → Build succeeds"
-"ruff check: 0 errors, 0 warnings → Linter clean"
-"curl https://api.example.com: 200 OK → Endpoint accessible"
-```
-
-❌ **Incorrect Claims:**
-```
-"Should pass now" ← No evidence
-"Tests pass" ← No evidence shown
-"Looks good" ← Subjective, no evidence
-"Fixed!" ← No verification
-```
-
-## Common Gate Function Violations
-
-### Violation 1: Skipping IDENTIFY
-**Symptom:** Can't name verification command
-**Fix:** If you can't identify verification, claim is invalid
-
-### Violation 2: Skipping RUN
-**Symptom:** Using old results, assuming outcomes
-**Fix:** Fresh execution required, every time
-
-### Violation 3: Skipping READ
-**Symptom:** Making claims without reading output
-**Fix:** Read COMPLETE output before claiming
-
-### Violation 4: Skipping VERIFY
-**Symptom:** Claiming success despite failures in output
-**Fix:** Match output to claim, report reality
-
-### Violation 5: Claiming Despite Failure
-**Symptom:** Tests fail but claim "mostly works"
-**Fix:** Report actual state: "31/34 pass, 3 failing"
-
-## Gate Function for Different Contexts
-
-### Before Committing
-
-```
-GATE CHECK:
-1. IDENTIFY: git diff, test suite, linter
-2. RUN: git diff && pytest && ruff check .
-3. READ: Full output of all three
-4. VERIFY: No uncommitted junk, all tests pass, linter clean
-5. CLAIM: "Ready to commit" OR report issues found
-```
-
-### Before Creating PR
-
-```
-GATE CHECK:
-1. IDENTIFY: Full test suite, requirements checklist, diff review
-2. RUN: pytest && git diff main...HEAD
-3. READ: Test results + all changes made
-4. VERIFY: Tests pass, changes match requirements
-5. CLAIM: "Ready for PR" OR report gaps
-```
-
-### Before Marking Task Complete
-
-```
-GATE CHECK:
-1. IDENTIFY: Requirements list, verification commands
-2. RUN: Check each requirement individually
-3. READ: Results of each verification
-4. VERIFY: All requirements met
-5. CLAIM: "Task complete: 5/5 requirements met" OR "4/5 met, missing X"
-```
-
-### Before Delegating to Agent
-
-```
-GATE CHECK:
-1. IDENTIFY: What agent should accomplish
-2. RUN: Agent execution
-3. READ: Agent report AND git diff
-4. VERIFY: Changes match task, no surprises
-5. CLAIM: "Agent completed X, verified by diff" OR "Agent attempted but Y issue found"
-```
-
-### Before Deployment
-
-```
-GATE CHECK:
-1. IDENTIFY: Build, tests, smoke tests, health checks
-2. RUN: Full build + test suite
-3. READ: All outputs
-4. VERIFY: All pass, ready to deploy
-5. CLAIM: "Ready for deployment" OR report blockers
-```
-
-## The Iron Law Explained
-
-```
-NO COMPLETION CLAIMS WITHOUT FRESH VERIFICATION EVIDENCE
-```
-
-**"No completion claims"** = ANY variation:
-- "Done", "Complete", "Finished", "Success"
-- "Fixed", "Working", "Passing", "Clean"
-- "Ready", "Good to go", "All set"
-- ANY paraphrase or synonym
-
-**"Without fresh verification"** = Must have:
-- Run command in this session
-- Read complete output
-- Verified results match claim
-- Evidence is current (not stale)
-
-**"Evidence"** = Must include:
-- Specific command run
-- Specific output received
-- Specific numbers/counts
-- Exit codes where applicable
-
-## Why Every Step Matters
-
-**Skip IDENTIFY:** Don't know what to verify → Can't verify → Can't claim
-**Skip RUN:** No current evidence → Claiming based on hope → Lying
-**Skip READ:** Don't know actual results → Assuming → Lying
-**Skip VERIFY:** Results might contradict claim → Claiming anyway → Lying
-**Skip any step:** Broke verification process → Cannot be trusted
-
-## The Bottom Line
-
-The gate function is non-negotiable. Every completion claim must pass through it.
-
-No shortcuts. No exceptions. No assumptions.
-
-Run the command. Read the output. Verify the result. Then claim.
