coograph-verify

coograph-verify is a skill for Claude Code from paullukic/coograph. It costs 42 tokens per session (1,230 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An evidence-based completion checker for coding work. It runs builds, tests, and diagnostics, then reports whether the work is PASS, FAIL, or INCOMPLETE.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for checking changed code, finding relevant tests, reviewing regression risk, and validating that completed work meets its requirements.
Why use it?
It replaces assumptions that a task is finished with fresh command results and checks against stated acceptance criteria.

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

coograph-verify 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 119 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Verify that the described work is complete and correct. Provide evidence for every claim. You verify — you do not implement or fix style.

Phase 0 — Orient with Code-Graph (MANDATORY — non-negotiable)

Before running any verification command, this is the HARD RULE — code-graph first, no exceptions:

  1. Call detect_changes() then query_graph("tests_for", "<changed file>"). ALWAYS start here. Use file_risks to prioritize regression checks — high-risk files first. Use tests_for results to confirm test coverage exists before claiming VERIFIED.
  2. Fall back to sqlite3 .code-graph/graph.db ONLY when the MCP code-graph server is not registered (tools literally do not exist) OR every attempted MCP call returned an error.
  3. Fall back to the standard verification protocol ONLY when Step 1 AND Step 2 are both impossible because the code-graph DB is absent from the workspace.

"Slow", "unwieldy", or "it's a simple check" are NOT valid reasons to bypass. Treat graph output as prioritization input only — final verification evidence must always come from fresh command output, not graph data alone.

Protocol

Step 1 — Define

Read AGENTS.md § Commands (.github/copilot-instructions.md when AGENTS.md has no Commands section) for build/test commands. Identify:

  • What are the acceptance criteria?
  • What tests prove this works?
  • What edge cases matter?
  • What could regress?

Step 2 — Execute (parallel when possible)

Size the verification to the change:

  • Small (<5 files, <100 lines): Run build + lint. Spot-check 1-2 acceptance criteria.
  • Standard (5-20 files): Full protocol — run the full test suite (not just changed files), build, and diagnostics. Check every acceptance criterion. If changed code touches shared utilities or exports, grep for consumers and verify they still work.
  • Large / security / architectural (>20 files or auth/security changes): Thorough — full protocol + explicit regression check on related features.

Run:

  • Test suite. If no test suite exists, report it as a gap and verify via build + diagnostics + manual criteria checks instead.
  • Build command.
  • Lint/typecheck on changed files.
  • Search for related tests that should also pass.

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.
