code-verification SKILL.md skillA

code-verification from coco-research/coco is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add coco-research/coco/code-verification@git:20260914.e75f220

Pins git:20260914.e75f220 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

License
a license file GitHub does not identify

Use after every code change, after writing tests, or before marking a task complete, and when the user says verify, quality gate, or audit code. Runs a 7-category mechanical check for TDZ, import, dead code, and mock leakage bugs.

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

# Code Verification Skill

A systematic post-implementation verification workflow that catches the bugs AI coding assistants most commonly introduce. This is NOT a code review for style or architecture — it is a mechanical correctness checklist that catches structural errors (TDZ, imports, dead code, mock leakage, CSS orphans, React anti-patterns) that humans and AI both miss during implementation.

## When to Use

- **After every code change** (1-2 files changed -> run immediately)
- **After a multi-file feature** (run on all changed files in one pass)
- **After writing/modifying tests** (switch to Test Verification mode)
- **Before marking any task complete** (final gate)
- **When a subagent completes work** (verify their output)
- **When user says**: "verify", "check quality", "audit code", "run verification", "quality gate", "pre-commit check"

## Quick Start

```
1. Identify changed files (git diff --name-only or manual list)
2. Run the 7-category checklist below on each file
3. Run automated checks (build, lint, tests)
4. Report findings as PASS / FAIL / WARNING
5. Fix all FAIL items before proceeding
```

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add coco-research/coco/code-verification@sha256:97248759f3d148aa

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260914.e75f220, 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.
