cross-verified-feature-development

A seven-phase workflow for developing high-stakes backend features and checking the result in four independent ways.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for turning requirements into a specification and task list, implementing each task, then reviewing behavior, debugging, and checking effects across repositories.
Why use it?
It addresses mistakes that can survive ordinary self-review, including concurrency problems, repeated-operation errors, and broken agreements between services.

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

cross-verified-feature-development 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.

Origin

This is a copy

100% identical to cross-verified-feature-development — 0 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 491 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Cross-Verified Feature Development

A structured workflow for high-stakes backend features. After implementation, it runs 4 independent verification passes to catch bugs that self-review and standard code review miss — particularly concurrency races, idempotency gaps, and cross-service contract breaks.

Prerequisites · 前置条件

本 skill 编排 Superpowers 生态中的子 skill 完成各阶段工作。

Install Superpowers(一次性):

claude mcp add --transport http superpowers https://superpowers.anthropic.com/mcp

本 skill 依赖的子 skill:

Phase Skill 用途
1 superpowers:brainstorming 需求分析 → 结构化 spec
2 superpowers:writing-plans spec → 可执行 task 清单
3 superpowers:subagent-driven-development 每个 task 独立 subagent 实施
4.1 superpowers:systematic-debugging 自查阶段的结构化调试框架
5 superpowers:writing-plans + superpowers:subagent-driven-development 修复迭代

没有 Superpowers 也能用(fallback):

Phase Fallback 做法
Phase 1 手动撰写 spec 文档,确保包含:问题陈述、技术方案、不变式清单、失败模式分析、风险表格
Phase 2 手动拆 task 清单,每个 task 须有文件 + 行号 + 验证命令
Phase 3 逐 task 实施,每个 task 完成后做 self-review 再进下一个
Phase 4.1 references/cross-verification-techniques.md 中的 4.1 checklist 手动自查
Phase 4.2–4.5 直接使用 references/cross-verification-techniques.md 里的 agent prompt 模板 dispatch subagent

Overview · 概览

这是一套多轮交叉验证的严谨特性开发方法论,用于开发关键业务特性时最小化生产事故概率

Core Insight · 核心洞察

单一视角的 review 有系统性盲点。即使最有经验的开发者也会:

  • 被自己的设计思路"带偏"
  • 默认某些字段语义是唯一的(实际可能多义)
  • 假设"应该幂等"的操作真的幂等(实际不是)
  • 看漏并发窗口
  • 忘记更新文档导致设计文档与代码失联

独立视角产生的信号彼此独立。用 N 个互不知情的 reviewer 轮询一个特性,发现的 bug 集合接近是并集而不是重复。所以这个工作流的本质是:

设计 → 实施 → 多轮独立交叉验证 → 修复 → 谨慎简化 → 文档同步

Comparison with Standard Workflow · 与普通开发工作流的差异

环节 普通做法 本工作流
需求 口头沟通/简单 PRD brainstorming 形成完整 spec
实施计划 开发者脑内规划 writing-plans 显式化成 task 清单
实施 一人连续写完 subagent-driven-development,每个 task 独立 review
验证 自测 + 一次 code review 4 轮独立交叉验证(本 skill 的核心)
修复 直接改 发现问题再走一轮 plan + execute
简化/优化 直接删减代码 带怀疑的验证,发现陷阱勇敢回滚
文档 实施后遗忘 强制回填,记录 evolution log

Files

What ships with it

4 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.
