verify-docs

A review process for checking project documentation against the decisions and details in a conversation. It also checks whether the documentation is clear, complete, well-organized, and stored in the expected folders.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to audit the Markdown files under docs/, check the required documentation structure, identify missing topics, and suggest where repeated explanations should be combined.
Why use it?
Documentation can contradict earlier decisions, omit important information, or use terms and steps that new readers cannot understand. This review finds those problems and points out duplicated content.

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-docs 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.

What it actually says

Review all documentation in docs/ and verify it against our conversation.

<verification_criteria>

  1. No contradictions: identify any statements in docs that conflict with or contradict what we discussed in this conversation.
  2. Self-explanatory: flag places where a reader would be confused without context they don't have — undefined terms, missing prerequisites, unclear steps, unstated assumptions.
  3. Nothing important missed: identify topics, decisions, or details from our conversation that should be documented but are absent or incomplete across docs/.
  4. Consolidation opportunities: identify duplication, redundancy, and excess verbosity across docs/. Suggest merges (files/sections/paragraphs/sentences), trims, or "single source of truth + links" improvements that increase findability without losing any details.
  5. Structure compliance: verify docs follow the repo docs architecture:
    • Doc root is docs/.
    • Required directories exist (even if empty):
      • docs/architecture/
      • docs/journeys/
      • docs/product/
    • docs/ contains Markdown-only: no non-.md files anywhere under docs/.
    • docs/README.md is the single canonical index and must:
      • describe scope for architecture/, journeys/, product/, plus any custom top-level docs/<dir>/ present
      • list/link every file under docs/ excluding docs/README.md itself
      • group links by top-level directory (include "Docs root (discouraged)" if any root-level docs exist)
    • .md files directly under docs/ (besides docs/README.md) are discouraged but allowed; call them out as a recommendation to move. </verification_criteria>
  1. Produce a narrative verification report covering:
    • What you reviewed (which files)
    • Findings for each criterion (contradictions, clarity gaps, missing content)
    • Findings for structure compliance (pass/fail + concrete issues + concrete fixes)
    • Concrete suggested edits where issues are found (specific files and sections)
    • Consolidation opportunities (specific, actionable merge/trim/link suggestions; include this section even if empty)
    • An overall plain-language verdict

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-docs is a skill published in the GitHub repository YourTechBud/coding-harness-config (5 stars, last pushed 3d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 9 tokens to every session and 791 once invoked, about $0.0000 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 2026-08-31.
