Verification Before Completion

Overview

Ensures no step or phase is declared complete without running verification. All success criteria must be met before finishing.

When to Use

• After each implementation step
• At phase checkpoints
• Before final completion declaration
• When validating that all acceptance criteria are met

Verification Checklist

1. All automated tests pass
2. Manual verification steps confirmed
3. Code review completed (APPROVE or APPROVE_WITH_NITS)
4. Security review passed
5. Plan document updated with completion status
6. All success criteria from the plan are satisfied
7. No untracked deviations from the plan

Key Rules

• Never declare done without running verification
• Document any verification failures
• Verification failures halt progress until resolved
