verify

verify is a skill for Claude Code from sd0xdev/sd0x-harness. It costs 17 tokens per session (1,405 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A verification workflow that runs available linting, type checks, unit tests, integration tests, and end-to-end tests.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to verify code quality, types, automated tests, and full user flows after a change.
Why use it?
It checks different parts of a codebase so problems can be found before changes are considered complete.

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

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 16d 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 — 136 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Verification Loop

Trigger

  • Keywords: verify, run tests, check, lint, typecheck, verification

When NOT to Use

  • Pre-commit gate (use /precommit or /precommit-fast)
  • Test coverage review (use /codex-test-review)
  • Running a single specific test (run directly)

Commit Context

Claude Code 2.1.286 and later tell Claude to run a skill named verify before a commit. The gate that binds a commit is /precommit (rules/auto-loop.md), so when /verify runs as that pre-commit check it neither repeats a precommit that already passed nor stands in for one that did not:

  1. Read the gate state: node scripts/review-state.js check --format=json, installed copy first (.claude/scripts/review-state.js).
  2. precommit.passed is exactly true → report "Precommit already passed at the current code digest; no new checks executed" and stop. Emit no sentinel and write no verdict note.
  3. Anything else — passed false, no precommit slot, output that does not parse as JSON, or no checker found → run /precommit. Its own report and evidence contract apply; /verify adds no verdict of its own.

passed is content-addressed — noted, at the current tree digest, with verdict pass — so no separate freshness check is needed. Run any other way, /verify performs the steps below unchanged.

Workflow Steps

Step Goal Safety Skip if Missing
lint Check code style (read-only) read-only yes
typecheck Static type checking (full only) read-only yes
test-unit Run unit test suite read-only yes
test-integration Run integration tests (full only) read-only yes
test-e2e Run end-to-end tests (full only) read-only yes

Failure behavior: continue-all (run all steps, report all results)

Task

Step 1: Check for runner script

Use Glob to check if .claude/scripts/verify-runner.js exists in the project root.

  • Found → run: node .claude/scripts/verify-runner.js $ARGUMENTS
    • If runner succeeds, use its output and skip to the Output section.
    • If runner fails, treat as a real verification failure (do not silently fallback).
  • NOT found → skip to Step 2 (do NOT attempt to run the runner).

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.

verify is a skill published in the GitHub repository sd0xdev/sd0x-harness (194 stars, last pushed 12d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 17 tokens to every session and 1,405 once invoked, about $0.0001 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.
