| description | Use after creating or modifying a local website, app, interactive UI, browser workflow, visual artifact, Canva/slides output, or generated image set where the result must be inspected rather than trusted from code alone. |
Visual Verification
Use this when user-visible output matters.
Web/App Verification
- Start or identify the local server or static HTML file.
- Open it in the in-app browser.
- Check desktop and mobile-sized views when responsive behavior matters.
- Click primary buttons, navigation, forms, tabs, and menus.
- Look for blank screens, broken assets, overlap, clipping, unreadable text, and console/runtime errors.
- Fix issues and recheck.
Artifact Verification
- Images: confirm the generated images exist and match the requested subject.
- Slides/decks: render or open and inspect layout, text fit, and image placement.
- Documents: render/open and inspect headings, charts, tables, and page flow.
- Spreadsheets: open/check formulas, charts, tabs, and formatting.
- Canva/computer-use outputs: confirm the app action actually completed.
Report Standard
Tell the user:
- What was checked.
- What passed.
- What was fixed.
- What could not be verified.
- Where the final artifact lives.
Safety Rules
- Do not claim UI is good without seeing it when browser verification is feasible.
- Do not leave dev servers running unless they are useful for the user.
- For account-backed apps, avoid clicking destructive controls unless the user asked for it.
Source Notes
Distilled from the Codex capabilities transcript: browser and computer control should be used to test real interfaces and artifacts, not just generate them.
