Delivery Validation

Use this skill during Verification and Delivery.

Reference:

• CLAUDE.md (workflow contract)
• .claude/workflow-state.json

Pre-delivery checklist

• requirements are satisfied
• automated gates are green or explicitly not applicable
• verification is complete
• blockers are explicit
• changed files and user impact are known
• no obvious testability debt is silently weakening the claimed coverage

Process

1. Check acceptance criteria against the implemented behavior.
2. Confirm the quality gate record.
3. Summarize what changed in user-facing terms.
4. Note any follow-up items or blocked items honestly.
5. Update workflow state:
   • phase = "delivery"
   • delivery.status = "ready-for-review" only when the work is truly reviewable

Do not

• say "done" when the work is merely "implemented"
• hide caveats that will force the user to debug or guess
