Forces a verification pass before any "this is done" declaration. Works for shipped code, sent docs, published posts, completed tasks, and finished plans.
Either: confirmation the work is genuinely done (and a "done" declaration), or a list of the specific gaps that must close first.
This is a discipline. The behavioral structure is: a non-negotiable rule (below), an excuses-and-counters table to defeat rationalizations, warning signs to spot the moment of risk, and a hard gate that fires before any "done" declaration. Apply the gate; verify each acceptance criterion against actual evidence; declare done only on a clean pass.
Before declaring any work done, run the verification — actually run it, do not assert it from memory.
| If you think... | Reality |
|---|---|
| "I just finished it, of course it works" | Just-finished work has the highest bug density. Verify. |
| "I already manually checked everything" | Manual checking is unreliable. Run the verification step. |
| "The user is in a hurry" | The user is more in a hurry to not have a regression. Verify. |
| "It's a tiny change" | Tiny changes break things in small ways that are hard to find later. Verify. |
| "I'll verify and ship in parallel" | "In parallel" usually means "ship now and verify if there's a complaint." Verify first. |
| "Verification is overkill for this" | Then you don't actually know it's done. Verify. |
Input: Just finished a doc draft, about to send to manager.
Without skill: "Sent! Let me know what you think." (manager finds 3 broken links and a placeholder paragraph)
With skill: STOP. Verification step = re-read end to end + click every link. Re-read finds: placeholder still in paragraph 3. Two links broken. Fix both. Verify again. Now send.
Use when the meta-builder routes to kind=discipline. Generates a discipline spell with the rule, excuses table, warning signs, and hard gates.
Use when the user wants to capture a repeatable task as a reusable spell, or asks "how do I build a workflow / skill / framework for X"
Use when the meta-builder routes to kind=subagent. Generates a spell that dispatches one or more subagents to do work in parallel or in isolation.
Use when the meta-builder routes to kind=workflow. Generates a workflow spell with explicit stages, checkpoints, and loop-back conditions.
Use when composing multiple spells into a chain that runs end-to-end (e.g. brainstorm -> plan -> execute -> verify).
Use when browsing what spells are available - bundled seeds, your personal library, or both. Filter by kind, audience, or update status.
