Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00043 | $0.01322 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00022 | $0.00661 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00009 | $0.00264 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00004 | $0.00132 |
Grade A, and why
verification-before-completion 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 6d 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.
This is a copy
83% identical to verification-before-completion — 116 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

Verification Before Completion
Overview
Claiming work is complete without verification is dishonesty, not efficiency.
Core principle: Evidence before claims, always.
Violating the letter of this rule is violating the spirit of this rule.
The Iron Law
NO COMPLETION CLAIMS WITHOUT FRESH VERIFICATION EVIDENCE
If you haven't run the verification command in this message, you cannot claim it passes.
The Gate Function
BEFORE claiming any status or expressing satisfaction:
1. IDENTIFY: What command proves this claim?
2. RUN: Execute the FULL command (fresh, complete)
3. READ: Full output, check exit code, count failures
4. VERIFY: Does output confirm the claim?
- If NO: State actual status with evidence
- If YES: State claim WITH evidence
5. ONLY THEN: Make the claim
Skip any step = lying, not verifying
DorkOS Verification Commands
| Claim | Command | What to check |
|---|---|---|
| Tests pass (full run) | pnpm test -- --run |
0 failures, exit 0 |
| Single test file | pnpm vitest run <path-to-test-file> |
0 failures, exit 0 |
| Linter clean | pnpm lint |
0 errors, 0 warnings |
| Types check | pnpm typecheck |
0 errors across all packages |
| Build succeeds | pnpm build |
exit 0 for all packages |
Gotcha: never use bare pnpm vitest run for a full run — in the dev environment it falsely fails 2 tests; full runs must go through Turborepo (pnpm test -- --run).
When scoped to a single package, prefer filtered commands:
pnpm vitest run apps/server/src/path/to/test.tspnpm --filter @dorkos/server typecheck
Common Failures
| Claim | Requires | Not Sufficient |
|---|---|---|
| Tests pass | Test command output: 0 failures | Previous run, "should pass" |
| Linter clean | Linter output: 0 errors | Partial check, extrapolation |
| Build succeeds | Build command: exit 0 | Linter passing, logs look good |
| Bug fixed | Test original symptom: passes | Code changed, assumed fixed |
| Regression test works | Red-green cycle verified | Test passes once |
| Agent completed | VCS diff shows changes | Agent reports "success" |
| Requirements met | Line-by-line checklist | Tests passing |
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.

verification-before-completion is a skill published in the GitHub repository dork-labs/dorkos (9 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 43 tokens to every session and 1,322 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. It is 83% identical to verification-before-completion, differing in 116 lines, and is treated as a copy.
