Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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 | $0.00057 | $0.01101 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00028 | $0.00550 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00011 | $0.00220 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00006 | $0.00110 |
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 yesterday.
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.
This is a copy
89% identical to maintain-verification-skill — 16 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 42 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.
Platform note. On Codex, the parallel per-feature source readers below map to spawn_agent fan-out, and the project-local skill lives under Codex's skills location, not .claude/skills/. See codex-tools.md.
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
-
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-skillinstead of inventing a target. -
Index hygiene. Read the feature map README and glob its sibling files. Fix missing, extra, duplicate, or dead entries. Lightweight; no generated inventory.
-
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.
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.
