verify

A set of repository verification instructions that defines checks for privacy issues, uncommitted changes, and commits that have not been pushed. It is intended to report the results without modifying the project.

In plain words
What is it for?
Running all verification hooks, optionally checking only staged changes, and producing a pass-or-fail report with fixes to apply manually.
Why use it?
It provides a repeatable final check for accidentally exposed secrets or personal data, unfinished local work, and missing remote pushes.

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

verify 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 2d 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.

What it actually says

Run Verification Gates

Run all verification hooks in .bot/hooks/verify/ and present a clear pass/fail report.

Steps

1. Privacy Scan

Run the privacy/secrets scanner:

pwsh .bot/hooks/verify/00-privacy-scan.ps1

If the user said /verify staged or mentioned "staged only", add the -StagedOnly flag:

pwsh .bot/hooks/verify/00-privacy-scan.ps1 -StagedOnly

2. Git Clean Check

Check for uncommitted changes outside .bot/:

pwsh .bot/hooks/verify/01-git-clean.ps1

3. Git Pushed Check

Check for unpushed commits:

pwsh .bot/hooks/verify/02-git-pushed.ps1

Presentation Format

Present results as a verification report:

## Verification Report

| Gate           | Result |
|----------------|--------|
| Privacy scan   | PASS/FAIL |
| Git clean      | PASS/FAIL |
| Git pushed     | PASS/FAIL |

Overall: ALL PASSED / N FAILED

### Failures (if any)

#### <Gate name>
- Issue: <description>
- Remediation: <what to do>

Rules

  • Read-only: Never fix issues automatically — only report them with remediation guidance
  • Always run all gates: Do not stop on first failure; run every gate and report all results
  • Report honestly: Show exact output from each hook; do not summarize away important details
  • Exit code awareness: Each hook outputs JSON to stdout with issues and details keys — parse these for structured reporting
  • Remediation guidance: For each failure, provide a concrete command or action the user can take to resolve it

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.

verify is a skill published in the GitHub repository andresharpe/dotbot (54 stars, last pushed 6d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 20 tokens to every session and 436 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
