verify-vibebuddy

verify-vibebuddy is a skill for Claude Code from semantic-craft/iOS-vibebuddy. It costs 77 tokens per session (2,598 once invoked), scanned C, original, MIT.

A verification procedure for VibeBuddy, a Mac, iPhone, and Apple Watch companion that communicates with coding tools through a Mac-based server. It drives an isolated headless server and, when available, an iPhone simulator to check user-facing features without changing the installed app.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to verify the VibeBuddy dashboard, phone pairing, remote approval, question replies, and iPhone Demo through the documented feature flows.
Why use it?
It provides a repeatable way to test pairing, approvals, replies, sessions, and demos while avoiding the user's normal server, application files, and login token. It also captures evidence of what was tested.

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 C, and why

verify-vibebuddy scanned grade C with 1 finding 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 today.

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.

Recursive force deletehighDestructive command

rm -rf with a variable or a broad path is one typo away from removing the wrong tree.

Verify VibeBuddy

VibeBuddy is a personal-use Mac, iPhone, and Apple Watch companion for Claude Code, Codex, Grok Build/Bot, and Cursor usage. Users touch native apps, not a website. The Mac is the hub: the menu-bar app embeds the same HTTP + WebSocket server as the headless vibebuddyd (docs/getting-started.md). Phones and hooks talk to that server with a bearer token (ADR-0009).

This skill drives an isolated vibebuddyd (the repo's documented headless path) and, on a Mac with simulators, the iPhone Demo. It does not replace /Applications, bind :9876, or write the login ~/Library/Application Support/vibebuddy/ token.

Read features/README.md before a run. Drive the mapped feature file, not a convenient substitute.

Helper (executable; invoke only via these paths):

ctrl="docs/agents/skills/verify-vibebuddy/helpers/control-vibebuddy"

Launch

Documented user/dev start for the hub:

swift run --package-path VibeBuddyMac vibebuddyd --pair   # production-shaped; defaults to :9876

Verification start — isolated port, disposable HOME, never :9876:

export VERIFY_RUN_ID="${VERIFY_RUN_ID:-vb-$(date +%Y%m%dT%H%M%S)}"
export VIBEBUDDY_QA_PORT="${VIBEBUDDY_QA_PORT:-18765}"   # must not be 9876
export VERIFY_EVIDENCE_DIR="${VERIFY_EVIDENCE_DIR:-$PWD/.scratch/verify-vibebuddy/$VERIFY_RUN_ID}"
"$ctrl" launch            # or: "$ctrl" launch --pair

Ready when both are true:

  • GET http://127.0.0.1:$VIBEBUDDY_QA_PORT/health returns ok (unauthenticated).
  • vibebuddyd: listening on 0.0.0.0:<port> is in the run's daemon.log.

The helper builds with swift build --package-path VibeBuddyMac --product vibebuddyd (Swift 6, macOS 14+, Xcode 26.6 / XcodeGen for the GUI apps — docs/getting-started.md#build-from-source). It restores VibeBuddyMac/Package.resolved after the build, matching tools/watch-live-qa.sh.

--pair opens the same 120-second registration window as Mac Pair a phone / vibebuddyd --pair.
