Verification Before Completion
Rule
Do not claim success without fresh evidence.
Checklist
- Identify what command or action proves the claim.
- Run it now, not from memory.
- Read the result carefully.
- Report the real status.
Examples
- Tests pass: only after running the relevant test command.
- Bug fixed: only after reproducing the original issue path and seeing the correct behavior.
- Build succeeds: only after a successful build.
- Review complete: only after actually checking the relevant files or diff.
Avoid
- "Should be fixed now"
- "Looks good"
- "Probably passes"
- trusting stale output
