verify-change SKILL.md skillA

verify-change from augchan42/inkstone is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add augchan42/inkstone/verify-change@git:20261022.bfab61c

Pins git:20261022.bfab61c in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Verify an implemented change by mapping intended behavior to executable checks, running those checks, and handing off concrete evidence and gaps. Use when asked to verify agent-generated code, prove a change works, or prepare a verification handoff when code volume exceeds human reading capacity. This is implementation verification; use codex-review for an adversarial Codex review of Opus-generated code.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Verify Change

Give the implementation agent a way to check its work and give the human
evidence they can evaluate. The output is a verification handoff for a
specific code state, not a code-review verdict or permission to merge.

## Establish intent and scope

Read the request, the changed code, and the project's guidance and existing
checks. Identify the intended behavior and the boundaries it must preserve.
Use the user's PR, commit range, or paths when supplied; otherwise identify
the active change and state its scope. Resolve an ambiguous scope before
claiming coverage.

Record the baseline and head commit where available, plus relevant staged,
unstaged, and untracked files. For a dirty checkout, preserve enough local
diff or content identity to distinguish the tested state from a later edit.
Do not commit, reset, or clean the checkout to make verification easier.

This skill can be used by the agent that wrote the code. It does not run
Codex, dispatch adversarial reviewers, or invoke codex-review. If independent
review is also requested, hand off the verification record separately;
that review remains a distinct activity.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add augchan42/inkstone/verify-change@sha256:926eec64ff1c6a62

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261022.bfab61c, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
