Verify
Purpose
Run a comprehensive verification pipeline to determine if code is ready for PR or
deployment. Unlike quality-gate (which checks changed files), verify checks the
entire project state.
Use this when:
- About to open a PR
- Before merging to main
- After a large refactor
- CI is too slow and you want local verification first
Key Concepts
Verification Pipeline
Checks run in order. Each produces a PASS/FAIL/SKIP status:
| # | Check | Command | Blocks PR |
|---|
| 1 | Build | npm run build / next build | YES |
| 2 | Typecheck | tsc --noEmit | YES |
| 3 | Lint | biome lint / eslint . | On errors |
| 4 | Tests | vitest run / jest / pytest | YES |
| 5 | Console.log | grep -rn in src/ | WARNING |
| 6 | Secrets | Pattern grep | YES |
| 7 | Git Status | git status / git diff --stat | INFO |
Modes
| Mode | Checks | Use When |
|---|
| quick | Typecheck + Lint | Mid-development sanity check |
| full | All 7 checks | Default, before PR |
| pre-commit | Format + Type + Lint + Secrets | Git pre-commit hook |
| pre-pr | All 7 + coverage threshold + branch check | Final PR readiness |
Pre-PR Additional Checks
In pre-pr mode, also verify:
- Test coverage meets threshold (configurable, default 80%)
