verify-task

verify-task is a skill for Claude Code from flurdy/agent-skills. It costs 35 tokens per session (2,638 once invoked), scanned B, original, MIT.

A quality check for a completed task that compares the implementation with its requirements and examines test coverage. It checks normal cases, failures, and edge cases before task completion.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it after implementation to review a task's completeness and decide whether its tests adequately cover expected and unusual behavior.
Why use it?
It helps reveal missing requirements or tests before the work is marked complete.

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 B, and why

verify-task scanned grade B with 1 finding 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 4d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (tests/test-skill-contract.sh), 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 203 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Verify Task

Own requirements satisfaction, coverage sufficiency, and execution evidence for a fixed change. This is a non-repairing verification pass: no source edits, tracking writes, checkout changes, installation, commits, or publication. No automatic fixes. Test commands may create normal ignored generated output, but that is not permission to rewrite source, snapshots, lockfiles, or config.

architect owns design, develop / implement-solution own authorized changes, pedantic-review owns craft/test design, and second-opinion supplies advisory independent claims. This skill does not duplicate those reviews or infer correctness from their approval. complete-task may normally finalize only after requirements, applicable evidence, and current-scope stability are established. The narrowly qualified future-event handoff in §6 permits a tracking disposition, not a verification pass or waiver of failed checks.

Usage

/verify-task <bead-selector or explicit request>
/verify-task                         # use the current task and supplied scope when unambiguous

Honor the premium route. If reduced capability is known, disclose it and ask to continue or stop, unless the user explicitly chose it. Do not invent model IDs or switch routes merely for ceremony.

1. Identify requirements and ownership

Prefer the caller's explicit requirements and supplied scope. A composing workflow such as total-review owns that packet; do not replace it with another task or a fresh default-branch diff.

When a Bead is the source, use ~/.agents/skills/next/scripts/next-select resolve <selector> before reading. Use the returned store in every bd -C <directory> ... call. An ambiguous/unavailable resolution stops tracker reads; never fall back to the workspace store. Without a selected Bead, use next-select stores to establish relevant stores before listing possible in-progress items. Multiple candidates require selection; tracker status is not proof of active session ownership.

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.

verify-task is a skill published in the GitHub repository flurdy/agent-skills (9 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 35 tokens to every session and 2,638 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it B with 1 finding (unrestricted tool access). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
