maintain-verification-skill

maintain-verification-skill is a skill for Claude Code from koolamusic/claudefiles. It costs 57 tokens per session (1,029 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of maintain-verification-skill, MIT.

A maintenance workflow for keeping a project's verification guide and feature map accurate as the application changes. It compares source code with live, user-like checks and records whether the result is clean, changed, or blocked.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for auditing each documented feature against the source and a running application, then safely shipping proven corrections to the guide, feature map, or its test harness.
Why use it?
Verification documentation can become outdated and claim that features work when they do not. This helps find and correct that drift without changing product code.

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

maintain-verification-skill 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 2d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 40 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Maintain a verification skill

A feature map rots the moment the app changes. This skill is the upkeep loop for a skill generated by /create-verification-skill (or any project-local verification skill with a feature map). The unit of rigor is the feature, not every sentence: cover every feature file from source and exercise every feature live, without terminalising every bullet.

Outcomes

Pick one, and say which:

  • clean — every feature got source and live coverage; nothing worth shipping. No branch, no PR.
  • changed — one PR ships proven doc, harness, or map corrections.
  • blocked — coverage could not finish or a proven fix could not ship safely. Say exactly what blocked it.

Edit scope

Only edit the verification skill's own directory (its SKILL.md, features/, and any harness scripts it owns). Never edit product code during a run: a behavior the map describes that the app no longer does is either doc drift (fix the map) or a product regression (report it, don't paper over it in docs).

Pass

  1. Locate the target. Find the verification skill to maintain: the project-local skill whose body has launch/drive sections and a feature map (usually .claude/skills/verify-*/). Several candidates → ask which one; none → stop and point at /create-verification-skill instead of inventing a target.

  2. Index hygiene. Read the feature map README and glob its sibling files. Fix missing, extra, duplicate, or dead entries. Lightweight; no generated inventory.

  3. Source wave. One read-only subagent per feature file, launched concurrently. Each explains "how does this user-facing feature work?" from source, flags likely doc drift with citations, and returns one concise live-verification recipe. Children never drive the app and never edit files. Return shape: feature summary / source entry points / likely drift or none / one recipe.

  4. Reconcile. Every feature file has a returned summary. Merge overlapping recipes into as few app states as practical. Spot-check cited drift; don't re-prove clean claims. Sweep recent churn for user-facing surfaces missing from the map — require a concrete source path before calling one missing.

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.
