description	Verification gate before claiming any work is complete. Use before committing, creating a PR, or reporting "done".

Verification Before Completion

Rule: Evidence before claims, always. No completion claim without fresh verification output.

"NO COMPLETION CLAIMS WITHOUT FRESH VERIFICATION EVIDENCE."

The Five-Step Gate

Before saying any task is done:

1. Identify the verification command
2. Execute it fully — not a partial check, not a cached result
3. Read the complete output and exit code
4. Verify the output matches your claim
5. Then and only then make the assertion

Rust Verification Sequence

cargo nextest run -p <crate>              # all tests green
cargo clippy -p <crate> -- -D warnings   # zero warnings
cargo fmt --check                         # no formatting diff
git log --oneline -3                      # commits present

For workspace-level completion:

cargo nextest run --workspace
cargo clippy --workspace -- -D warnings

Red Flags — You Are About to Lie

• "Should work" → run it and check
• "Probably passes" → run it and check
• "Tests were passing earlier" → run them now
• "I fixed the issue" → verify the fix is in and tests pass
• "Looks good" → evidence or it didn't happen

Subagent Reports

Never trust a subagent's self-report without independent verification. Run the verification commands yourself after a subagent claims completion.

git log --oneline -5   # empty list = subagent did not finish
