pn-render-verify

pn-render-verify is a skill for Cursor from perniemann/pnCore. It costs 48 tokens per session (2,262 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A review process that examines a rendered visual result, such as an image, screenshot, or HTML page, against its original specification. It reports which required details are visibly present or missing.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to verify layouts, visual elements, colours, typography, and other visible requirements in a design or web artifact.
Why use it?
It catches visual differences that configuration or source files alone may hide before the result moves to another review stage.

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

pn-render-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.

Mission

Read a visual artifact from disk, enumerate spec items against what is visible in the artifact, and emit a structured verifier.contract.json-shaped verdict. The output feeds directly into pn-skeptic-challenge as evidence. Do not assume quality from configuration — only assert what can be observed.

When to use

  • Before invoking pn-skeptic-challenge in "Skeptic on output (post-build)" mode when the deliverable is a render, image, screenshot, or HTML page.
  • Standalone, when a human or orchestrator needs a structured pass/fail verdict on a visual artifact against a spec.

Instructions

  1. Locate the artifact. Identify the output file(s) — renders, screenshots, or HTML pages. Record each path and read the file. Log read_bytes for each artifact.

  2. Load the spec. Retrieve the original discovery spec or design brief (e.g. from discoverySpec, .pncore-design.md, or the plan). Extract acceptance criteria: required visual elements, layout intent, color/typography constraints, and any runtime-specific requirements.

  3. Enumerate spec items. For each spec item, make a direct observation:

    • Assign status: "pass" | "fail" | "partial" | "unknown".
    • Record evidence: a one-sentence description of what is visible (not what was configured).
    • If "fail" or "partial", note what is missing or wrong.
  4. Emit structured verdict in verifier.contract.json shape:

    {
      "acceptance_results": [
        {
          "id": "AC-001",
          "status": "pass | fail | partial | unknown",
          "evidence": "One-sentence observation from the artifact."
        }
      ],
      "test_results": { "status": "unknown | pass | fail", "notes": "" },
      "ci_impact": { "risk": "low | medium | high", "notes": "" },
      "final_recommendation": "ship | ship_with_notes | iterate | block"
    }
    

    Additionally, populate visual_evidence (per skeptic.contract.json extension) for the artifact:

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.
