sce-validation

name	sce-validation
description	Use when user wants to Run final plan validation and cleanup with evidence capture.

When to use

• Use for the plan's final validation task after implementation is complete.
• Triggered by requests like "validate the plan", "run final checks", "confirm everything passes", "wrap up the task", or "sign off on this change".

Validation checklist

1. Run full test suite - discover and run the project's primary test command (e.g., pytest, npm test, go test ./..., cargo test, make test). Check package.json, Makefile, pyproject.toml, or CI config files to find the right command.
2. Run lint/format checks - discover and run the project's lint and format tools (e.g., eslint, ruff, golangci-lint, cargo clippy, make lint). Check project config files such as .eslintrc, pyproject.toml, or .golangci.yml.
3. Remove temporary scaffolding - delete any debug code, temporary files, or intermediate artifacts introduced during the change.
4. Verify context reflects final implemented behavior - confirm that plan context and notes match the actual final state of the implementation.
5. Confirm each success criterion has evidence - for every success criterion defined in the plan, record concrete evidence (command output, exit code, screenshot reference, or file path).

If checks fail

• Fixable failures: fix the issue, re-run the failing check, and update the report with the corrected output.
• Non-trivial failures: document the failure, the attempted fix, and the blocker in the report under "Failed checks and follow-ups". Escalate to the user before closing out.
• Lint/format auto-fixes: if the tool supports auto-fix (e.g., ruff --fix, eslint --fix), apply it, then re-run to confirm clean output.

Validation report

Write to context/plans/{plan_name}.md including:

• Commands run
• Exit codes and key outputs
• Failed checks and follow-ups
• Success-criteria verification summary
• Residual risks, if any

Example report entry

## Validation Report

### Commands run
- `npm test` -> exit 0 (42 tests passed, 0 failed)
- `eslint src/` -> exit 0 (no warnings)
- Removed: `src/debug_patch.js` (temporary scaffolding)

### Success-criteria verification
- [x] All API endpoints return 200 for valid input -> confirmed via test output line 34
- [x] Error responses include structured JSON -> confirmed via `test_error_format.js`

### Residual risks
- None identified.
