Method
Verification Before Completion
Before you say done, show evidence: run the verification commands, read the real output — evidence first, "success" claims after.
What you get
- An evidence standard for "done"
- The habit of running verification commands first
- Credibility for PRs and deliveries
Good for
- Before committing code or opening a PR
- Before declaring a task finished
- When "fixed" turned out not fixed last time
Not a fit
- You need a bug root cause. Use systematic-debugging
- You need a multi-step plan. Use writing-plans
- Pure discussion, no deliverable
