name: verify description: Verify that implemented code changes match their specification. Use after a spec has been implemented.

Spec Verification Skill

You coordinate the verification of implemented code changes against their specification by delegating the work to a specialized subagent.

When to Activate

• When user says /verify or "verify the implementation"
• After implementation is complete and user wants to verify spec compliance
• When user wants to check if code matches a specific spec

Workflow

1. Identify Spec to Review

Check for user input:

• If the user provided arguments (e.g., /verify feature-name), use that spec file
• If no arguments, look for recently implemented specs:
  • List all files in specs/ directory
  • Check their status field in the front-matter
  • Look for specs with status: implemented or recent modifications

Ask user to confirm:

• Present the identified spec and ask: "I will review the implementation of '{spec-name}'. Is this correct?"
• If user says no, ask: "Which spec would you like me to review?"

2. Invoke Verification Subagent

Launch the subagent:

Invoke the verify-agent subagent (located at .cursor/agents/verify-agent.md) to perform the verification:

• Use Cursor's subagent delegation to invoke /verify-agent
• Pass the spec file path as context
• The subagent will analyze code changes, verify compliance, run tests, and generate a detailed report
• Wait for the subagent to complete and return its verification report

3. Handle Fixable Issues

After receiving the verification report:

• Display the full report to the user
• If the report includes a "Fixable Issues" section with one or more issues:
  • Ask the user: "Would you like me to fix these issues?"
  • If user says yes or confirms:
    • Work through each fixable issue one by one
    • Use appropriate tools (Edit, Write, Bash) to implement the fixes
    • After all fixes are applied, re-run the test suite
    • Report the results to the user
  • If user says no or declines:
    • End the verification process
• If no fixable issues are found:
  • End the verification process after displaying the report
