verify

name	verify
description	**Mandatory** before any commit or push. Run Definition-of-Done checks from change scope and report exact pass/fail per command.
argument-hint	auto, minimal, code, proof, proto, full

Every change must be verified before declaring completion, including documentation-only changes.

If $ARGUMENTS is provided (auto, minimal, code, proof, proto, full), use it as a hint to prioritize relevant scopes. If $ARGUMENTS is absent or ambiguous, use automatic scope detection.

Blast-radius analysis (always first)

Before selecting test commands, run the blast-radius detector script:

cargo make blast-radius

The script returns JSON with these fields:

• changed_files
• affected_crates
• risk_flags
• docs_only
• recommended_scopes
• recommended_commands

Use this output as the source of truth for scope selection and command execution order.

If the script is unavailable or fails, use this fallback procedure:

1. List changed files (staged and unstaged). If there are no local changes, compare against main if available.
2. Map changed paths to affected areas:
   • proto/
   • crates/pessimistic-proof*
   • crates/<crate-name>/
   • docs-only changes (docs/, README.md, markdown/adoc/rst/txt prose)
3. Determine affected_crates. Use docs/knowledge-base/src/architecture.md as the ownership map.
4. Detect risk_flags:
   • proof pipeline changes
   • protobuf schema changes
   • storage schema/migration changes
   • settlement/signer/contract changes
   • configuration schema changes
5. Derive docs_only:
   • true only when all changed files are documentation/prose and no runtime code/config/proto files changed
   • false otherwise
6. Derive recommended_scopes:
   • minimal always
   • code when runtime behavior may change
   • proof when proof crates changed
   • proto when protobuf schema changed
7. Derive recommended_commands as exact commands in execution order.

If $ARGUMENTS explicitly requests additional scopes, append the missing scope commands. minimal always remains required.

Docs-only branch

If blast-radius reports docs_only: true:

• Always run recommended_commands from blast-radius.

• Ensure this command is included:

  mdbook build docs/knowledge-base/
  

• Skip runtime-heavy scopes (code, proof, proto) unless the user explicitly requested them via $ARGUMENTS.

Scopes

Run all matching scopes (scopes are cumulative). minimal always runs. Additional scopes come from blast-radius output, optionally constrained by $ARGUMENTS. When available, run recommended_commands directly in the provided order.

Minimal (always runs)

cargo check --workspace --tests --all-features

cargo check only type-checks; it does not execute tests. Never treat a passing cargo check as proof that changes work. When any scope below matches the changed files, it must also run.

Code behavior (features, bug fixes, refactors)

cargo make ci-all
cargo nextest run --workspace

cargo make ci-all runs: format check, clippy, typos, and clippy on the PP program.

Test selection rules for cargo nextest run (fallback only, when blast-radius did not provide recommended_commands):

• If blast-radius reports broad impact (core types/storage/rpc/proto boundaries or many crates), run:

  cargo nextest run --workspace
  

• Otherwise run package-targeted nextest for affected crates first.

• If package-targeted tests fail in a way that suggests transitive impact, escalate to cargo nextest run --workspace.

Pessimistic proof (crates/pessimistic-proof*)

cargo make pp-check-vkey-change

If the vkey changed, ask the user for explicit confirmation before running:

cargo make pp-accept-vkey-change

Protobuf (proto/)

cargo make generate-proto

Then verify no uncommitted diffs in generated code.

Fix-and-rerun protocol

• If checks fail, attempt focused fixes for failures plausibly caused by your changes, then rerun checks.
• Stop after 2 fix-and-rerun cycles, or if failures appear unrelated to your changes.
• Hand control back with a brief summary of what passed, what failed, and what you tried.

Reporting

Always report:

• Exact command(s) run.
• Whether each passed or failed.
• If failed: the relevant error output.
• Blast-radius result summary and chosen scope rationale.
