Verify

Use this skill when a task is not finished until the change is exercised.

Goal

Produce a short verification result grounded in execution, not inference. Prefer the narrowest check that proves the changed behavior works.

Workflow

1. Identify the changed surface area.
2. Pick the smallest realistic verification path.
3. Run the relevant command or request flow.
4. Capture the observable result: exit status, key output, HTTP status, or changed behavior.
5. Report what passed, what was not verified, and any remaining risk.

Rules

• Do not claim success without running something.
• Prefer focused checks over broad smoke tests.
• If the repo has no formal test target, use the nearest runnable workflow.
• If a check is blocked by environment limits, state that explicitly.
• Include exact commands when they are useful to repeat the verification.

Verification Patterns

CLI changes

• Run the exact command path affected by the edit.
• Check help text, flags, output formatting, exit codes, and side effects.
• For interactive flows, prefer the most scriptable subcommand first.

See examples/cli.md.

Server changes

• Start only the needed service.
• Exercise the changed route, handler, or background path.
• Validate status code, response shape, logs, and failure handling.

See examples/server.md.

Reporting Format

• Verified: what you ran and what passed.
• Not verified: anything you could not run.
• Risk: the main remaining uncertainty, if any.
