2. RUN - Execute the FULL command (fresh, complete)

3. READ - Full output, check exit code

4. VERIFY - Does output confirm the claim?

5. ONLY THEN - Make the claim

## Red Flags

- Using "should", "probably", "seems to"

- Expressing satisfaction before verification

- Trusting agent success reports without independent verification

## Agents Used

- Process agents defined in `verification-before-completion.js`
