What is seek-verdict?

A second-opinion review tool that independently checks whether a reported code issue is real and explains its impact.

Use it to verify, dismiss, or clarify findings from another code review.

It helps identify false positives and gives you more confidence before dismissing or acting on a finding.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00124	$0.01609
Opus 5.5	$0.00050	$0.00644
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00025	$0.00322
Haiku 4.5	$0.00012	$0.00161

Measured 1mo ago against content hash 42415c6604d9, method: parsed. Prices are Anthropic first-party input rates as of 2026-10-07, from the pricing page.

Security

Grade A, and why

seek-verdict 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 1mo 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.

seek-verdict: Independent Second-Opinion Verification

When NOT to Use

General code review (use /codex-review-fast)
Architecture debates (use /codex-brainstorm)
Nit findings with no dismiss intent (use [NIT_DEFERRED])

Intent x Severity

Intent	Purpose	Eligible Severities	Output Token
`dismiss`	Is this a false positive?	All (P0/P1/P2/Nit)	`[DISMISS_VERDICT]`
`confirm`	Does this issue actually exist?	All	`[SEEK_VERDICT]`
`clarify`	What's the actual impact?	All	`[SEEK_VERDICT]`

Default intent: dismiss (backward compatible with v1).

Dismiss Authorization

Severity	Authorization	Gate
P0	`DISMISS_CANDIDATE`	Human confirmation required
P1	`DISMISS_CANDIDATE`	Human confirmation required
P2	`DISMISS_VERIFIED`	Automated
Nit	`DISMISS_VERIFIED`	Automated

P0/P1 dismiss produces a candidate, not a final authorization. See Policy Mapping for human gate protocol.

3-Phase Protocol

Phase A: Candidate Packaging

Extract finding artifact from review output:

Field	Source

`severity`	`<P0 \| P1 \| P2 \| Nit>`
`intent`	`<dismiss \| confirm \| clarify>`
`original_finding_text`	Codex review original (secrets redacted)
`origin_thread_id`	Review session threadId
`current_head_sha`	`git rev-parse HEAD`
`relevant_diff`	`git diff HEAD -- <file>`

What ships with it

2 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.

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.

seek-verdict is a skill published in the GitHub repository sd0xdev/sd0x-harness (194 stars, last pushed 20d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 124 tokens to every session and 1,609 once invoked, about $0.0005 per session on Opus 5.5. 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 2026-09-03.

code-review

Two-mode skill: (1) adversarial review — spec compliance + code quality + security, confidence-scored findings with file:line evidence; (2) receiving review — verify-before- agreeing discipline for acting on external/human review feedback.

codebase-hygiene

Two-mode skill: (1) find semantic duplicates — functions doing the same thing under different names, invisible to copy-paste detectors; (2) deepen shallow modules — thin wrappers and pass-through layers that spread complexity. Advisory and read-only; changes route through BUILD with full gates.
