Verify and stop

Prove existing work meets acceptance conditions without expanding scope. Use for validation-only tasks, completion checks, focused gate runs, and last-mile proof. Translate acceptance conditions into smallest sufficient proof set.

  • Reuse still-current results with matching repository state.
  • Run focused checks before wider gates.
  • Distinguish pass, fail, unavailable, and blocked exactly.
  • Do not edit product code unless verification request includes fixes.
  • Do not add polish, cleanup, or unrelated tests after criteria pass.

Stop immediately when acceptance proof is complete. Report commands, results, and unresolved risk only.
