version: "1.0.0" name: patch-verification description: "Use after applying a Meta-ARE patch to check syntax, imports, integration behavior, hooks, mutation scope, and result consistency."

Meta-ARE Patch Verification (Plugin-specific)

Apply the core verification baseline and run available local checks. Then review the candidate against the Meta-ARE constraints below. AutoSaddler performs the configured import, scope, training-case-ID, and exact-diff checks automatically after the session; do not claim those automatic checks ran from inside the optimizer session.

Python And Integration Checks (Plugin-specific)

• Compile every modified Python file.
• Run available targeted import or integration checks for changed code.
• Confirm changed signatures, docstrings, implementations, and callers remain

mutually consistent.

Hook Checks (Plugin-specific)

• Parse hook.json as JSON and require the supported PreToolUse structure.
• Compile every matcher regular expression.
• Require supported reminder handlers and nonblank reminder text.
• Reject task-specific names, IDs, answers, or lookup tables.

Scope And Result Checks (Plugin-specific)

• Confirm no benchmark, validation, scenario, data, checkpoint, test, or other

protected path changed.

• During steering, apply the exact boundary defined by the steering-patch

skill.

• Confirm every diff path is allowlisted and changed_paths exactly matches

the final repository-relative diff.
