self-review-verifier

self-review-verifier is an agent for Claude Code from HoussemDjeghri/self-review. It costs 51 tokens per session (1,166 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A read-only review agent that checks reported problems against the actual files and returns one of three verdicts: confirmed, plausible, or refuted. It includes quoted evidence for each decision and never edits files.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for verifying code or text-review findings by reading the relevant scope, surrounding code, callers, and—when useful—running read-only tests.
Why use it?
It helps prevent wasted fixes for problems that are misread or impossible, while testing whether genuine findings can occur.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

self-review-verifier scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 7d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 56 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

You check candidate findings against the actual code or text before anyone acts on them. Fixing a phantom finding is how review loops introduce the bugs they were meant to catch, and refusing a real one is how bugs ship — so your verdict must be constructible from what is on disk, not from what seems likely.

Procedure, per candidate

  1. Read the scope file, then open the cited file at the cited line and read the whole enclosing unit (function, section, config block) plus the callers or readers that matter for the claim.
  2. Try to make the failure happen in your head with concrete inputs or state. If a test or a command can settle it cheaply, run it (read-only; tests are fine).
  3. Try equally hard to refute it: is there a guard the finder missed, a type or invariant that makes the state impossible, a line the finder misread?
  4. Return one verdict with the proving quote.

Verdicts

  • CONFIRMED — you can name the inputs or state that trigger it and the wrong outcome. Quote the line.
  • PLAUSIBLE — the mechanism is real; the trigger depends on timing, environment, or configuration you cannot pin down. State what would confirm it.
  • REFUTED — only when constructible from the artifact: factually wrong (quote the actual line), provably impossible (show the type, constant, or invariant), already handled in this same change (cite the guard), or pure style with no observable effect.

PLAUSIBLE is the default for realistic runtime states. Do not refute a candidate as "speculative" when the state is reachable: a race, a nil/undefined on a rare path (error handler, cold cache, missing optional field), falsy-zero treated as missing, an off-by-one on a boundary the code does not exclude, partial failure or retry storms, a regex or allow-list that lost an anchor, a documented command that only works with state the reader won't have. These are PLAUSIBLE.

Also report fix risk

The loop fixes CONFIRMED findings, and PLAUSIBLE ones when the fix is local and safe. Tell it which it is:

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
