+# Integration and Workflows
+
+How verification-before-completion integrates with other skills and common workflows.
+
+## Integration with Other Skills
+
+### Systematic Debugging
+
+**When debugging, verification prevents false confidence in fixes:**
+
+```
+1. Reproduce bug (systematic-debugging Phase 1)
+2. Investigate root cause (systematic-debugging Phase 1)
+3. Form hypothesis (systematic-debugging Phase 3)
+4. Implement fix (systematic-debugging Phase 4)
+5. ⚠️ GATE FUNCTION: Verify fix works (verification-before-completion)
+   - Run reproduction case → Must pass
+   - Run full test suite → Must pass
+   - THEN claim "Bug fixed"
+```
+
+**Integration points:**
+- After Phase 1 (Investigation): Verify you can reproduce consistently
+- After Phase 4 (Implementation): Verify fix actually works
+- Never claim fix without verification
+
+**Common mistakes:**
+- ❌ "Logic looks correct" → Verify it works
+- ❌ "Should fix the bug" → Run reproduction test
+- ❌ "Code changed" → Verify behavior changed
+
+### Test-Driven Development (TDD)
+
+**TDD red-green cycle requires verification at each step:**
+
+```
+1. Write test (TDD)
+2. ⚠️ VERIFY: Test fails (RED) - proves it catches bug
+3. Implement code (TDD)
+4. ⚠️ VERIFY: Test passes (GREEN) - proves fix works
+5. Revert code temporarily
+6. ⚠️ VERIFY: Test fails again (RED) - proves test isn't false positive
+7. Restore code
+8. ⚠️ VERIFY: Test passes (GREEN) - final confirmation
+```
+
+**Integration points:**
+- Every transition in red-green cycle needs verification
+- Never assume test state, always verify
+- Document verification evidence for each step
+
+**Why critical:**
+- Test passing immediately = test doesn't catch bug
+- Skip verification = false confidence in test coverage
+
+### Condition-Based Waiting
+
+**When waiting for conditions, verify they're actually met:**
+
+```
+1. Identify condition to wait for (condition-based-waiting)
+2. Implement wait logic
+3. ⚠️ GATE FUNCTION: Verify condition actually met
+   - Check condition state
+   - Don't assume timeout = success
+   - THEN proceed
+```
+
+**Integration points:**
+- After wait completes: Verify condition met, not just timeout elapsed
+- Replace "waited long enough" with "verified condition met"
+
+**Common mistakes:**
+- ❌ "Waited 5 seconds" → Verify condition met
+- ❌ "Should be ready now" → Check actual state
+
+### Root-Cause Tracing
+
+**When tracing root causes, verify your understanding:**
+
+```
+1. Trace back through call stack (root-cause-tracing)
+2. Identify suspected root cause
+3. ⚠️ GATE FUNCTION: Verify root cause identified
+   - Test hypothesis
+   - Can you reproduce by triggering suspected cause?
+   - THEN claim root cause found
+```
+
+**Integration points:**
+- After identifying root cause: Verify it's truly the cause
+- Test by removing suspected cause: Problem should disappear
+- Never claim root cause without verification
+
+## Workflow Examples
+
+### Feature Development Workflow
+
+```
+1. Read requirements
+2. Write tests (TDD)
+3. ⚠️ VERIFY: Tests fail (red)
+4. Implement feature
+5. ⚠️ VERIFY: Tests pass (green)
+6. ⚠️ VERIFY: All requirements met (checklist)
+7. ⚠️ VERIFY: Full test suite passes
+8. ⚠️ VERIFY: Linter clean
+9. ⚠️ VERIFY: Build succeeds
+10. THEN commit
+```
+
+**Verification points: 5 gates before commit**
+
+### Bug Fix Workflow
+
+```
+1. Reproduce bug
+2. ⚠️ VERIFY: Can reproduce consistently
+3. Investigate root cause (systematic-debugging)
+4. ⚠️ VERIFY: Root cause identified
+5. Write regression test
+6. ⚠️ VERIFY: Test fails (catches bug)
+7. Implement fix
+8. ⚠️ VERIFY: Regression test passes
+9. ⚠️ VERIFY: Full test suite passes (no regressions)
+10. THEN claim bug fixed
+```
+
+**Verification points: 5 gates before claiming fixed**
+
+### Refactoring Workflow
+
+```
+1. Identify code to refactor
+2. ⚠️ VERIFY: All tests pass (baseline)
+3. Make refactoring changes
+4. ⚠️ VERIFY: All tests still pass
+5. ⚠️ VERIFY: Behavior unchanged
+6. ⚠️ VERIFY: Performance not degraded
+7. THEN claim refactoring complete
+```
+
+**Verification points: 4 gates ensuring safe refactoring**
+
+### Code Review Workflow
+
+**As reviewer:**
+```
+1. Read PR description and requirements
+2. Review code changes (git diff)
+3. ⚠️ VERIFY: Can't trust PR author verification
+4. Checkout branch locally
+5. ⚠️ VERIFY: Tests pass
+6. ⚠️ VERIFY: Build succeeds
+7. ⚠️ VERIFY: Requirements met
+8. THEN approve PR
+```
+
+**As author:**
+```
+1. Complete feature/fix
+2. ⚠️ VERIFY: All local checks pass
+3. Push to branch
+4. ⚠️ VERIFY: CI pipeline passes
+5. Create PR with evidence
+6. THEN request review
+```
+
+## Agent Delegation Workflows
+
+### Delegating to AI Agent
+
+**Before delegation:**
+```
+1. Define task clearly
+2. Specify verification criteria
+3. Delegate to agent
+```
+
+**After agent reports completion:**
+```
+4. ⚠️ NEVER trust agent report
+5. Check git diff: What actually changed?
+6. ⚠️ VERIFY: Run tests
+7. ⚠️ VERIFY: Run build
+8. ⚠️ VERIFY: Check requirements met
+9. ⚠️ VERIFY: No unexpected changes
+10. ⚠️ VERIFY: No secrets added
+11. THEN accept or reject
+```
+
+**Critical rule: Agent success reports are NOT verification**
+
+### Agent Verification Checklist
+
+**For every agent task completion:**
+```
+[ ] Reviewed complete git diff
+[ ] Ran full test suite
+[ ] Checked build succeeds
+[ ] Verified requirements met
+[ ] No TODO/placeholder code
+[ ] No commented-out code
+[ ] No secrets in code
+[ ] No unrelated changes
+[ ] Dependencies appropriate
+[ ] Code quality acceptable
+```
+
+**Only after ALL checks pass: Accept agent work**
+
+### Multi-Agent Workflows
+
+**When coordinating multiple agents:**
+```
+1. Agent A completes task
+2. ⚠️ VERIFY: Agent A work correct
+3. Agent B completes dependent task
+4. ⚠️ VERIFY: Agent B work correct
+5. ⚠️ VERIFY: Integration works (A + B together)
+6. THEN proceed
+```
+
+**Each agent verified independently, then verify integration**
+
+## CI/CD Pipeline Integration
+
+### Pre-Commit Hook Verification
+
+```bash
+#!/bin/bash
+# .git/hooks/pre-commit
+
+# GATE FUNCTION: Verify before allowing commit
+
+echo "Running pre-commit verification..."
+
+# Test verification
+pytest tests/ || exit 1
+echo "✅ Tests pass"
+
+# Linter verification
+ruff check . || exit 1
+echo "✅ Linter clean"
+
+# Build verification
+make build || exit 1
+echo "✅ Build succeeds"
+
+echo "✅ All verifications pass - commit allowed"
+```
+
+**Enforces gate function at commit time**
+
+### CI Pipeline Stages
+
+```yaml
+# .github/workflows/ci.yml
+
+name: CI Pipeline with Verification
+
+on: [push, pull_request]
+
+jobs:
+  verify:
+    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
+    steps:
+      # Stage 1: Build
+      - name: Build
+        run: make build
+      - name: Verify build artifacts
+        run: ls dist/ && test -f dist/app
+
+      # Stage 2: Test
+      - name: Run tests
+        run: pytest tests/
+      - name: Verify test results
+        run: |
+          # Parse test output
+          # Verify 0 failures
+
+      # Stage 3: Lint
+      - name: Run linter
+        run: ruff check .
+      - name: Verify linter output
+        run: |
+          # Verify 0 violations
+
+      # Stage 4: Security
+      - name: Security scan
+        run: bandit -r .
+      - name: Verify no critical issues
+        run: |
+          # Parse security output
+          # Verify 0 high/critical
+```
+
+**Each stage has verification step**
+
+### Deployment Pipeline Verification
+
+```yaml
+deploy:
+  needs: verify
+  steps:
+    # Deploy
+    - name: Deploy to staging
+      run: ./deploy.sh staging
+
+    # Verify deployment
+    - name: Verify endpoint accessible
+      run: curl -f https://staging.example.com/health
+
+    - name: Verify application responding
+      run: |
+        response=$(curl -s https://staging.example.com/api/status)
+        if [ "$response" != "OK" ]; then
+          echo "Deployment verification failed"
+          exit 1
+        fi
+
+    - name: Run smoke tests
+      run: pytest tests/smoke/
+
+    # Only proceed if all verifications pass
+    - name: Deploy to production
+      if: success()
+      run: ./deploy.sh production
+```
+
+**Production deployment only after staging verification**

+
+## Emergency Workflows
+
+### Production Hotfix Workflow
+
+**Even under extreme time pressure:**
+
+```
+1. Reproduce production issue
+2. ⚠️ VERIFY: Can reproduce locally
+3. Implement minimal fix
+4. ⚠️ VERIFY: Fix works locally
+5. ⚠️ VERIFY: Tests pass
+6. Deploy to staging
+7. ⚠️ VERIFY: Fix works in staging
+8. ⚠️ VERIFY: No new issues introduced
+9. Deploy to production
+10. ⚠️ VERIFY: Fix works in production
+11. ⚠️ VERIFY: Monitor error rates
+12. THEN claim hotfix complete
+```
+
+**Time pressure = MORE verification needed, not less**
+
+### Rollback Verification
+
+**When rolling back:**
+```
+1. Trigger rollback
+2. ⚠️ VERIFY: Rollback completed
+3. ⚠️ VERIFY: Application responding
+4. ⚠️ VERIFY: Error rates normal
+5. ⚠️ VERIFY: Key user flows work
+6. THEN communicate "Rollback successful"
+```
+
+**Never assume rollback worked - verify it**
+
+## Documentation Workflows
+
+### Documentation Update Workflow
+
+```
+1. Update documentation
+2. Have fresh user read it
+3. ⚠️ VERIFY: User can follow steps successfully
+4. ⚠️ VERIFY: All code examples work
+5. ⚠️ VERIFY: All links valid
+6. ⚠️ VERIFY: Screenshots current
+7. THEN claim documentation complete
+```
+
+### API Documentation Workflow
+
+```
+1. Document API endpoints
+2. Include request/response examples
+3. ⚠️ VERIFY: Can run examples with curl
+4. ⚠️ VERIFY: Response matches documentation
+5. ⚠️ VERIFY: All error codes documented
+6. ⚠️ VERIFY: All parameters documented
+7. THEN publish API docs
+```
+
+## Metrics and Monitoring
+
+### Tracking Verification Compliance
+
+**Metrics to track:**
+- % of commits with verification evidence
+- % of PRs with verification evidence
+- % of deployments with post-deployment verification
+- False positive rate (unverified claims that failed)
+- Time spent on verification vs debugging unverified work
+
+**Goals:**
+- 100% verification compliance
+- < 5% false positive rate
+- Verification time << debugging time saved
+
+### Automation Opportunities
+
+**What to automate:**
+- Pre-commit hooks enforce verification
+- CI pipelines enforce verification gates
+- PR templates require verification evidence
+- Deployment scripts include verification steps
+
+**What NOT to automate:**
+- Reading verification output (human must read)
+- Making verification claims (human responsibility)
+- Judging if verification is sufficient (requires judgment)
+
+## The Bottom Line
+
+Verification-before-completion is:
+- **Non-negotiable** in every workflow
+- **More critical** under time pressure, not less
+- **Required** for agent work, never trust agent reports
+- **Enforced** through automation where possible
+- **Cultural** - team practice, not individual choice
+
+**Integration principle:** Every workflow completion point needs a verification gate.
+
+No shortcuts. No exceptions. No workflow bypasses verification.
