verify-done
Skill0 starsChanged 4 months agoMITView on GitHub
Fail-closed verification before accepting Done/Fixed/做完了. Use when the user or agent claims a task is finished, fixed, complete, verified, or ready to merge — including UI fixes, bug fixes, overflow, layout, tests passing, or "I'm done". Also trigger for 做完了、修好了、验收、验证完成、可以合并. Runs bundled check scripts and refuses verbal Done until PASS.

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.
The file
We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent
2 rules. 0 are common, 1 is distinctive, and 1 is very specific to this project.
0
Common
Most of the 6 edited versions we read keep these.
1
Distinctive
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
1
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.
- Common
- Distinctive
- Very specific
- Distinctive: line 27
Prefer running the bundled script over inventing your own checklist.
- Very specific: line 28
If the script path is unclear, locate SKILL.md for this skill and run scripts/check.mjs next to it.
“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 6 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.
Files
verify-done
Agent said Done. Reality must agree.
You MUST run verification before saying the work is finished. Verbal "Done / Fixed / 做完了" without a PASS from the scripts below is Fake Done — forbidden.
When this skill applies
- User or you claim: Done, Fixed, complete, finished, verified, LGTM, ready to merge
- Chinese: 做完了、修好了、弄好了、验收通过、可以提交
- Any UI / layout / overflow / bugfix claim
Hard rules
- Do not say Done / Fixed / 做完了 until the check script exits
0(PASS). - On FAIL (exit
1): show evidence, keep fixing, re-run the script. - Prefer running the bundled script over inventing your own checklist.
- If the script path is unclear, locate
SKILL.mdfor this skill and runscripts/check.mjsnext to it.
Procedure
1. Locate this skill
Common install paths:
- Project Cursor:
.cursor/skills/verify-done/ - Project Claude:
.claude/skills/verify-done/ - User Cursor:
~/.cursor/skills/verify-done/ - User Claude:
~/.claude/skills/verify-done/
2. Run the check (from the user's project root)
node "<path-to-verify-done>/scripts/check.mjs" --cwd . --claim "<exact claim text>"Windows PowerShell example:
node "$PWD\.cursor\skills\verify-done\scripts\check.mjs" --cwd . --claim "Fixed the inventory overflow"Optional demo URL check (when a local page should prove a UI fix):
node "<path-to-verify-done>/scripts/check.mjs" --cwd . --claim "Fixed overflow" --url http://127.0.0.1:41733. Report in chat (required template)
## verify-done: FAIL | PASS
- Claim: ...
- Checks: git_diff | fake_tests | npm_test | url_probe (list which ran)
- Evidence: (paste key lines from script stdout)
- Next: (if FAIL, concrete fix steps; if PASS, you may say Done)4. Only after PASS
You may say the work is done. Summarize what passed.
What the script checks
| Check | Behavior |
git_diff | Claimed a fix but no file changes → FAIL |
fake_tests | Vacuous tests (expect(true).toBe(true), empty bodies, it.todo) → FAIL |
npm_test | If package.json has test script, runs it (skip if missing) |
url_probe | If --url given, FAIL when page still contains overflow-bug / LAYOUT BROKEN |
Details: references/fake-done.md
Anti-patterns (do not do)
- "Tests are green in my head" without running the script
- Editing the script to force PASS
- Saying Done because the user sounded impatient
- Skipping verify on "tiny" UI claims — those are Fake Done hotspots

Your trail
Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.
Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.
Now do this for your own.
Bring your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or skills. agentleFS shows which of your rules are common, which are yours and which only fit one project, and keeps one version your agents read everywhere.
