Enforce "no evidence = no completion"; run Gate Function verification before declaring done.

We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent

4 rules. 0 are common, 4 are distinctive, and 0 are very specific to this project.

  • 0

    Common

    Most of the 175 edited versions we read keep these.

  • 4

    Distinctive

    This author's own choices. Worth a look.

  • 0

    Very specific

    Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

  • Very specific
  1. Distinctive:

    If tests/checks fail, the status MUST revert to in-progress.

    line 16
  2. Distinctive:

    Before submitting PRs or handing off work.

    line 21
  3. Distinctive:

    After completing high-risk changes (data, permissions, core flows).

    line 22
  4. Distinctive:

    If there are unfinished items, explicitly mark them with follow-up suggestions.

    line 36

“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 175 edited versions of this file we could read. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

Keep what fits and drop the rest. Your version, ready for your agents.

Verification Before Completion

Overview

Any "completed" statement MUST be supported by evidence. This skill provides a pre-completion Gate Function, ensuring results are reproducible, traceable, and deliverable.

Ironclad Rules

  • No evidence = no completion claim.
  • Evidence MUST be reproducible by others; verbal descriptions are NOT accepted.
  • If tests/checks fail, the status MUST revert to in-progress.

When to Use

  • Tasks are preparing to enter /ship.
  • Before submitting PRs or handing off work.
  • After completing high-risk changes (data, permissions, core flows).

Gate Function

  1. Scope Gate: Confirm changes only cover the agreed scope.
  2. Quality Gate: Execute required tests and static checks.
  3. Evidence Gate: Compile reproducible evidence (commands, outputs, versions).
  4. Risk Gate: Confirm rollback strategies and known risks.
  5. Communication Gate: Output a completion summary (changes, validation, constraints).

Minimum Evidence Checklist

  • At least one set of tests/checks directly related to this change.
  • Specific execution commands and results (Success/Failure/Warning).
  • If there are unfinished items, explicitly mark them with follow-up suggestions.

Common Mistakes

  • Claiming "it should work" without any output evidence.
  • Testing only the happy path, missing regressions or edge cases.
  • Treating old test results as evidence for new changes.

    How matches are found. Word for word: the exact same text. Edited: shares passages with this file (“99% same” means 99% of its five-word phrases also appear here; 10% or more counts). Their own version: similar meaning, or, weakest, the same name. We can’t tell which project had it first. Projects are counted among the 200 most-starred candidates, and mentions are links to the repository we found, up to 50 per site, so both counts are a floor.

      diagnosing-superpowers

      Use when a superpowers session went wrong and your human partner wants to know why — repeated work, ignored plans, stumbles, poor results, a skill that didn't fire, "it took too long", "why is it so expensive", "what is it doing" — or wants to build a bug report for the superpowers maintainers, for the current session or a past one identified by id or path, on any harness.

      root-cause-tracing

      Use when errors occur deep in execution and you need to trace back to find the original trigger - systematically traces bugs backward through call stack, adding instrumentation when needed, to identify source of invalid data or incorrect behavior

      condition-based-waiting

      Use when tests have race conditions, timing dependencies, or inconsistent pass/fail behavior - replaces arbitrary timeouts with condition polling to wait for actual state changes, eliminating flaky tests from timing guesses
