verification-before-completion

verification-before-completion is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from J-Pster/Psters_AI_Workflow. It costs 34 tokens per session (307 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A completion-checking guide that requires fresh evidence before claiming work is finished, fixed, or ready. Evidence can include a build, lint check, test, or reproduction command.

In plain words
What is it for?
Choosing and running the right validation command, checking its result, and reporting what has actually been verified.
Why use it?
It prevents completion claims based only on inspection or old results and makes any remaining verification limits clear.

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

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 9d 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.

What it actually says

Verification Before Completion

Never claim "done", "fixed", "passing", or "ready" without fresh evidence from commands run in the current execution context.

Iron Rule

No completion claims without command evidence.

Mandatory flow

  1. Identify which command validates the claim.
  2. Run the command fully.
  3. Check exit code and meaningful output.
  4. Report the claim with evidence.
  5. If full verification is not possible, state limitations explicitly.

Evidence format

  • Command executed: <command>
  • Result: exit code 0|non-zero
  • Key output: <1-2 relevant lines>
  • Conclusion: <what is verified>

Typical mappings

  • Build claim -> npm run build (or project equivalent)
  • Lint claim -> linter command output with zero errors
  • Bug fix claim -> reproduction command/script no longer fails
  • Migration safety claim -> migration run and drift check evidence

Anti-patterns

  • "Should be fine now"
  • "Looks correct"
  • "I think it works"
  • Using old command output as evidence

In this workflow

  • Apply at the end of /pwf-work and /pwf-work-plan.
  • If evidence is partial, still provide status, but mark it as limited and list next verification steps.
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.
