interface-contract-verifier

interface-contract-verifier is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from ArabelaTso/Skills-4-SE. It costs 77 tokens per session (533 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A verification tool that checks whether stated rules for interfaces and classes remain true across program versions. These rules can describe what must be true before a method runs, after it finishes, or throughout an object's life.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to compare contracts between versions and find broken preconditions, postconditions, or invariants.
Why use it?
It helps detect when a refactoring or update silently weakens requirements or breaks promised behaviour.

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

interface-contract-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 9d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 2 executable files (scripts/contract_extractor.py, scripts/contract_verifier.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

Interface Contract Verifier

Overview

Verify that formal or structured contracts (preconditions, postconditions, invariants) defined in interfaces and classes are preserved when updating to a new program version.

Core Workflow

1. Extract Contracts

Extract contracts from both versions:

python scripts/contract_extractor.py --program old_version --output old_contracts.json
python scripts/contract_extractor.py --program new_version --output new_contracts.json

2. Verify Contracts

Compare and verify contract preservation:

python scripts/contract_verifier.py --old old_contracts.json --new new_contracts.json --output report.json

3. Review Violations

Examine violations: weakened preconditions, strengthened postconditions, broken invariants.

Contract Types

Preconditions

Requirements before method execution:

def withdraw(amount):
    """Precondition: amount > 0 and amount <= balance"""

Postconditions

Guarantees after method execution:

def deposit(amount):
    """Postcondition: balance == old(balance) + amount"""

Invariants

Properties always true for a class:

class BankAccount:
    """Invariant: balance >= 0"""

Verification Rules

Liskov Substitution Principle:

  • Preconditions can be weakened (accept more)
  • Postconditions can be strengthened (guarantee more)
  • Invariants must be maintained

Violation Types

Strengthened Precondition (Error)

New version rejects previously valid inputs.

Weakened Postcondition (Error)

New version guarantees less.

Broken Invariant (Critical)

Class invariant no longer holds.

Resolution Guidance

Fix Strengthened Precondition

Relax precondition or update callers.

Fix Weakened Postcondition

Strengthen implementation to meet original guarantee.

Fix Broken Invariant

Add checks to maintain invariant in all methods.

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.
