acceptance-gate

A release-readiness process that defines completion through acceptance requirements and executable checks.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when checking launch blockers, updating acceptance criteria, validating release evidence, or keeping checklists and verification scripts aligned.
Why use it?
It ties claims that work is finished to evidence from scripts, tests, fixtures, or clearly recorded manual checks.

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

acceptance-gate 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 yesterday.

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

Acceptance Gate

Use this skill to keep the implementation tied to an objective definition of done.

Goal

Ensure every completion claim is backed by executable checks, fixtures, or explicit manual evidence.

Workflow

  1. Read the relevant acceptance IDs in docs/acceptance-matrix.json.
  2. Read the corresponding sections in docs/launch-checklist-v1.md.
  3. Confirm how the repo currently evaluates those IDs via:
    • scripts/checklist_status.sh
    • scripts/verify.sh
    • scripts/release_readiness.sh
  4. If an acceptance item is not machine-verifiable yet, add the narrowest verification path that matches the repo contract.
  5. When feature work changes the evidence model, update docs and scripts together.

Rules

  • Treat the JSON acceptance matrix as normative for engineering completion.
  • Keep acceptance IDs stable once they are referenced by scripts, tests, or reports.
  • Prefer deterministic scriptable checks over prose-only status.
  • If a check must remain manual, make the evidence path explicit in the checklist.
  • Do not let the launch checklist drift from the scripts.

Good outcomes

  • checklist_status.sh --json clearly reflects reality.
  • verify.sh catches the important regressions for current scope.
  • release_readiness.sh fails only for real blockers and passes only when the release bar is met.
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.

acceptance-gate is a skill published in the GitHub repository eksdev007/xcodeinstrumentmcp (2 stars, last pushed 4mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 84 tokens to every session and 370 once invoked, about $0.0004 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 2026-08-31.
