A repository skill for checking BB user journeys in an isolated development app across its supported interfaces and platforms. It uses a feature map to select relevant checks and records whether each one passed, failed, was skipped, or was blocked.

Use it after BB feature changes or when asked to smoke-test the app. It helps verify web, command-line, agent, plugin, desktop, mobile, and hosted-service journeys when their required setup is available.

It prevents a broad feature change from being treated as verified after testing only one path or platform. It also keeps evidence and missing prerequisites clear.

verify-bb — Skill for Claude Code and Codex by get-bb

About the project

bb is an agentic IDE that lets users control, customize, and automate a software-development environment through a desktop app, web app, command-line interface, or HTTP API. Developers use it to run work in observable threads that can be steered or handed off to other agents. Its catalogue add-ons provide skills and instructions for working with bb.

Getting it into your agent

It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00070	$0.02639
Opus 5	$0.00035	$0.01319
Sonnet 5	$0.00014	$0.00528
Haiku 4.5	$0.00007	$0.00264

Security

Grade A, and why

verify-bb scanned grade A 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 yesterday.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 2 executable files (scripts/inventory.py, scripts/test_inventory.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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 234 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Verify BB

Run from the repository root. Start with the feature map and select the affected journeys. Read docs/debugging-and-qa.md for the existing launcher's contract. The launch below targets the source web app and local host daemon. Desktop, native mobile, and hosted services have additional setup in their feature files. A pass on one platform does not verify another.

Coverage and selection

The feature map aims to inventory every feature discoverable in this checkout, including disabled plugins, compatibility paths, and developer surfaces. Group files contain individual capability recipes. Read only the relevant files for a focused verification request; for an exhaustive audit, track every recipe. Mark each selected recipe passed, failed, not run, or blocked with its specific prerequisite and evidence. Group-level source coverage never upgrades an unexecuted recipe to a pass.

Run the read-only inventory check before selecting coverage:

.bb/skills/verify-bb/scripts/inventory.py

Python 3 and Git are required. The check compares source declarations and fingerprints with INVENTORY.md and inventory.json, and requires all recipe owners to exist. On drift, inspect the changed source, add/update recipes and their prerequisites, then run scripts/inventory.py --write via its full path above and review the diff. Never accept a new baseline merely to silence the check. It watches CLI families, app routes/actions/settings, public contracts/SDK, plugin sources, platform clients and server/daemon implementation. The broad fingerprints deliberately flag implementation changes too: some require only a recorded review, others reveal behavior missing from the map. Literal extraction cannot resolve every dynamic registration, and source fingerprints cannot judge recipe completeness; reconcile menus, help, schemas and actual behavior during maintenance.

The latest maintenance audit assessed all 348 recipes: 166 passed, 177 partial/blocked and 5 failed. The per-recipe ledger records evidence and remaining subchecks. VALIDATION.md preserves the initial smoke history. An exhaustive map is the test inventory, not a whole-product pass.

What ships with it

57 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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-bb is a skill published in the GitHub repository get-bb/bb (3,416 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 70 tokens to every session and 2,639 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-07.
