Criteria Audit Skill

Audit EXECUTION_PLAN.md to ensure acceptance criteria are automation-ready and use the verification metadata format.

Workflow Overview

Copy1. Read EXECUTION_PLAN.md
2. Parse phases, tasks, and acceptance criteria
3. Validate verification metadata
4. Report issues and summarize

Step 1: Parse Acceptance Criteria

For each task, collect:

• Criterion text
• Type tag (e.g., (TEST))
• Verify: line
• If manual: Reason: line

Also collect Pre-Phase Setup items and their Verify: lines.

Step 2: Validation Rules

Acceptance Criteria Rules

• Every criterion must include a type tag: (TEST), (CODE), (LINT), (TYPE), (BUILD), (SECURITY), (BROWSER:DOM) etc.
• Every criterion must include a Verify: line unless it is MANUAL.
• MANUAL criteria must include a Reason: line.
• Flag ambiguous criteria (vague, subjective, or missing measurable details).

Pre-Phase Setup Rules

• Each setup item must include a Verify: command.
• If missing, mark as human-required.

Step 3: Report

Provide a structured report:

CopyCRITERIA AUDIT
==============

Tasks Checked: {N}
Criteria Checked: {N}
Issues Found: {N}

Missing Type Tags:
- Task 1.2.A: "{criterion}"

Missing Verify Lines:
- Task 1.3.B: "{criterion}"

Manual Missing Reason:
- Task 2.1.A: "{criterion}"

Pre-Phase Setup Missing Verify:
- Phase 1: "{setup item}"

Status: PASS | WARN | FAIL

Resolution Guidance

• If missing metadata is obvious, propose the exact type and Verify: line.
• If ambiguous, recommend asking the human to clarify.
• Do not edit EXECUTION_PLAN.md automatically unless explicitly requested.
