When should I trigger the verification loop?

It is best used after completing a significant feature, before creating a PR, or every 15-20 minutes during long coding sessions to maintain code health.

Can I use this for security auditing?

Yes, Phase 5 specifically scans for exposed API keys (like sk- prefixes) and sensitive debug information such as console logs in production source paths.

What is the recommended test coverage target?

The skill defaults to a target of 80% minimum test coverage, providing a clear pass/fail report based on your test runner's coverage output.

What languages does the Verification Loop support?

It includes predefined checks for TypeScript, JavaScript, and Python projects, but the pattern can be easily adapted for any language with standard CLI tools.

How does this differ from standard Git hooks?

While hooks catch issues at commit time, this skill provides a deeper, holistic review including manual diff analysis and security scans during the active development process.

Security & Testing

Automates a comprehensive six-phase quality assurance workflow to ensure code integrity before pull requests or deployments.

The Verification Loop skill provides a structured, multi-stage quality gate for Claude Code sessions, ensuring that every code change meets production standards. It systematically executes build checks, type validation, linting, test suite runs with coverage analysis, security scans for leaked secrets, and detailed diff reviews. By formalizing these checks into a repeatable process, the skill helps developers catch regressions early, maintain high test coverage, and deliver secure, error-free code without manual overhead.
