double-check

double-check is a skill for Claude Code from allemaar/open-skills. It costs 117 tokens per session (1,141 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A command that rechecks a specific claim, answer, plan, decision, or document from the beginning. It rereads the relevant sources, questions assumptions, and gives a verdict.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when you ask whether something is correct, want an answer checked again, or need a plan, decision, or document reviewed and improved.
Why use it?
It helps catch mistakes that a single review may miss. It also separates a focused recheck from formal verification.

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

double-check 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 11d 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 — 123 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

/double-check

Multi-pass re-verification of a plan, output, decision, or document — re-read from scratch, challenge assumptions, propose improvements, and iterate until solid.

Re-Read & Improve Protocol — not a single-pass gate. The agent re-reads the target fresh, challenges each part, proposes improvements, and iterates. Each pass tightens the result.

Structured execution spec: protocol.yon. It carries the five phases, the scope/verdict gates, and the rules as validatable records; this file is the explanation. Keep the two in sync — edit one, update the other and refresh the @STAMP date.

Caller Options. Before executing, run the Caller Options protocol (caller-options/SKILL.md): triage this invocation for material optionality across the venues and modes declared in front-matter; if one path clearly dominates, proceed silently; otherwise surface the options to the caller. A resolved-invocation marker means COP already ran — execute the fixed combination directly, do not re-enter COP.


Phase 1: Scope

Identify what is being double-checked — a plan, an output, a decision, a document. Load it fresh. Do not rely on prior context or cached understanding.

Gate: Cannot double-check without a clear target. If the target is ambiguous, ask before proceeding.


Phase 2: Fresh Re-Read

Re-read the target from scratch as if seeing it for the first time. Go back to the actual sources — files, code, docs. Do not verify from memory or prior analysis alone.

Summarize:

  • What it says
  • What it assumes (implicit and explicit)
  • What it depends on

List every assumption, stated or unstated.


Phase 3: Challenge

Challenge each part of the target. Be adversarial — actively try to find problems.

For plans: Are any steps wrong, missing, out of order, or unnecessary? For outputs: Are any claims unsupported? For decisions: Were alternatives considered?

Look for:

  • Gaps and omissions
  • Wrong or unstated assumptions
  • Over-engineering or under-engineering
  • Scope issues
  • Ordering issues
  • Missing dependencies

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

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.
