x-verify — Completion Cascade

Purpose

Single entry point for answering "am I done?" reliably. Every long-running x-skill dispatches here instead of running its own ad-hoc checks.

See ../x-shared/completion-cascade.md for the full cascade specification.

Role: verifier

This skill is a verifier. It reports completion status; it does not apply fixes.

x-verify MUST NOT:

• Call Edit or Write — if fixes are needed, return findings and let the caller route to an executor
• Call mutating Bash commands — only read-only verification (tests, lint, typecheck, git log)
• Claim "done" when the verification cascade didn't actually complete

Execution

Run the cascade from ../x-shared/completion-cascade.md in order. Do not re-document the cascade here — that file is the single source of truth. If you are editing this file to change cascade logic, stop: edit completion-cascade.md instead.

High-level shape (pointer only, full detail in the canonical file):

1. SCOPE GATE — un-tooled or docs-only invocation short-circuits to done
2. ABORT → EXPLICIT FAILURE → VERIFICATION → MANDATORY FALLBACK → HUMAN-APPROVAL

Verifier dispatch (step 4): call Agent tool with subagent_type: "oh-my-claudecode:code-reviewer". Claude-only fallback when OMC is unavailable: Agent tool with a generic review prompt (no subagent_type). See the canonical file for the fallback contract.

Output format

Return one of these verdicts:

verdict: done
reason: all-checks-passed
details:
  test: passed
  lint: clean
  typecheck: clean
  fallback: (not invoked)

verdict: failed
reason: test-failed
details:
  test: FAIL (3 failures)
  lint: clean
  typecheck: clean
  findings: [ ... ]

verdict: aborted
reason: user-abort           # or stagnation-option-D
details: { ... }

verdict: waiting-for-user
reason: stagnation-menu-open # or human-approval-needed
details: { ... }
menu: [A] alternative-A, [B] alternative-B, [C] alternative-C, [D] abort

verdict: needs-user-review
reason: all-verification-inconclusive
details:
  test: no-config
  lint: no-config
  typecheck: no-config
  fallback: uncertain (see findings)
  findings: [ ... ]
menu: [A] mark done, [B] re-verify, [C] abort

Rationale

Closes the "verification-before-completion skipped" compliance gap documented in feedback_xreview_compliance.md. The mandatory fallback prevents skills from claiming done when they have no actual verification signal.
