vc-checking

A narrowly defined workflow for checking whether statements in a source can be proven, using a prepared handoff and formal source.

In plain words
What is it for?
Completing an assigned VC analysis and grouping task within the specified verification workflow.
Why use it?
The input does not describe the checking method or its outputs in enough detail to explain the problem it removes.

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

vc-checking 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 — 24 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

VC Checking

You are the vc-checking owner for the current attempt and complete only VC analysis, grouping, and this delivery. Every attempt is a new independent session; rely only on the controller claim/handoff, the current agent_input.md, and files bound by the handoff. Do not depend on the parent transcript or speculate about or advance later annotation, group proving, merge, final apply, or other phases.

Reading order

  1. Read the VC analysis and grouping workflow in full. It is the process, write, command, and output contract for the current role.
  2. As required by the workflow, read the VC analysis guide and natural-language analysis. They provide proof-analysis knowledge only; if an obsolete process description in either document conflicts with the workflow, the workflow prevails.
  3. Read the agent_input.md named by the claim message in full, then read only the source, reuse source, and controller blocker bound there.

Do not read the root AGENTS.md, verification-orchestrator, another role's skill, controller state/event, or unbound history to supplement the process. If required information is absent from this skill and the claim/handoff, report it as missing under the workflow without expanding the read scope.

Delivery objectives

  • Apply the exhaustive split-first analysis and unique proof_mode decision strictly to every top-level VC.
  • Write executable strategies only for the selected formal targets; generate conditional reuse hints only when the controller explicitly binds the preceding sealed proving source.
  • Complete preliminary grouping and a second load, coupling, and critical-path review; output a strict group_plan.json and concise agent_output.md.
  • Write agent_report.json last, stop all writes, and return the delivery to main/controller; if the controller requires an in-place report repair, repair it only within the same owner, attempt, and permitted boundary.

Files

What ships with it

3 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.

vc-checking is a skill published in the GitHub repository QinxiangCao/QualifiedCProgramming (43 stars, last pushed 11d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 91 tokens to every session and 511 once invoked, about $0.0005 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
