harness-verify

harness-verify is a skill for Claude Code from vasuag09/harness-claude. It costs 67 tokens per session (596 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A workflow for checking a code change before it is merged, including reviews, security checks, tests, and running the application. It is used after implementation is finished.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to review code, inspect security-sensitive changes, run tests with coverage, exercise acceptance criteria in the real app, and prepare a change for shipping.
Why use it?
It brings the checks into one sequence and stops when serious correctness, security, or design problems are found.

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

harness-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 10d 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 — 43 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

/harness-verify — run the Verify phase

Thin orchestrator over the Verify skills. Goal: prove the change is production-grade before it can merge.

Sequence

  1. Review — run /harness-claude:review (delegate to harness-claude:code-reviewer); for any change touching auth/input/queries/files/external-calls/crypto/secrets, also /harness-claude:security-review (delegate to harness-claude:security-reviewer); and for any change that touched a user-facing surface (UI/page/screen/component/form/mobile/CLI-TUI), also /harness-claude:design-review (craft + a11y/UX gate). Run the applicable reviewers in parallel; skip the ones that don't apply and say so. → HALT on any Critical/High (security/correctness) or Blocker (design) finding — fix, then re-review the changed lines.

  2. /harness-claude:test — run the full suite (in tmux if long) + coverage. Every acceptance criterion must have a test; coverage ≥ 80% on changed code. Add missing tests via harness-claude:tdd-guide.

  3. /harness-claude:verify — launch the app/feature and observe each acceptance criterion working in reality (browser screenshot for web; exercise unhappy paths). Tests passing is necessary, not sufficient. Anything tests missed → add a regression test (back to step 2).

  4. /harness-claude:ship — sync docs, draft the change summary from the full diff, confirm build/types/lint/tests green and no secrets/debug logs. → HALT at the git boundary: do NOT commit/push/PR. Report "ready — say the word."

Rules

  • Block, don't warn, on Critical/High security or correctness findings, or design Blockers.
  • If a secret is exposed: stop, rotate, sweep for siblings.
  • Never run git write operations unless the user explicitly asks.

Output

Verify summary: review verdict, security verdict, design verdict (or "skipped — no UI surface"), coverage %, observed-working evidence, docs synced, "ready to commit/PR." Then optionally /harness-claude:harness-maintain.

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.
