Verification Before Completion

The Rule

CopyNO COMPLETION CLAIMS WITHOUT FRESH VERIFICATION EVIDENCE

Before Saying "Done"

1. Run the tests

   Copypytest
   

   Must see: All pass, 0 failures

2. Run the linter

   Copyruff check .
   

   Must see: No errors

3. Check types (if applicable)

   Copymypy src/
   

   Must see: Success

Evidence Format

When reporting completion:

CopyVerification:
- pytest: 47/47 passed
- ruff check: 0 errors
- mypy: Success

Red Flags

If you're thinking:

• "Should work now" - RUN IT
• "I'm confident" - RUN IT
• "Just this once" - NO, RUN IT

Never

• Claim tests pass without running them
• Say "should work" instead of verifying
• Skip verification because you're confident
• Trust previous runs - run fresh

Checklist

Before PR/commit:

• pytest run, output shows all pass
• ruff check run, output shows clean
• No errors or warnings
• Actually read the output, don't just run
