verification-loop	Systematic verification before claiming completion — run tests, check coverage, verify edge cases, inspect CI. Use when about to mark a task done, before merge, or when user asks "is it ready?"

Verification Loop Skill

Based on ECC verification-loop + verification-before-completion patterns.

When to Use

• Before claiming any task is complete
• Before merge or PR
• User asks "is it ready?" or "có ổn chưa?"
• After fixing a bug

Loop Steps

1. Run Tests

npm test          # or your test command
pytest tests/     # Python
go test ./...     # Go

If ANY test fails — FIX first, do NOT claim done.

2. Check Coverage

npm run coverage  # or equivalent

Thresholds:

• Line coverage: > 80%
• Branch coverage: > 70%
• Critical paths: 100% (auth, payments, data mutations)

3. Verify Edge Cases

For each input or parameter:

• null / None / undefined
• Empty string, empty array, empty object
• Maximum allowed length/value
• Minimum allowed length/value
• Special characters
• Boundary values (just above, just below limit)

4. Check for Regressions

git diff --name-only HEAD~1  # or relevant range

Verify changes don't break existing functionality. Run full test suite.

5. Lint and Type Check

npm run lint && npm run typecheck  # TypeScript
ruff check . && mypy .              # Python
golangci-lint run                    # Go

6. Review the Diff

git diff

Read every changed line. Verify:

• No accidental deletions
• No debug code left (print, console.log, debugger)
• No commented-out code
• No TODO without ticket reference
• Code matches what was asked

7. Build Check

npm run build    # or equivalent

Must succeed with zero errors.

Decision

If ALL steps pass — safe to mark complete. If ANY step fails — list issues, fix, re-run loop.
