What it does

When installed, the agent treats reviews and claims as three jobs: audit what changed, verify it with direct evidence such as tests, running the app, or logs, and explain the result in simple grade-5 language. It is careful to say what was actually checked and what is still unproven, rather than saying something works when it was only inferred.

Great for

  • Developers who want a second look at a code change, bug fix, or test run
  • Managers or non-technical readers who need a plain-language summary of technical work
  • Anyone who wants an honest split between verified facts and guesses

Skip it if

  • Tasks needing a deep specialist review, such as security penetration testing or legal compliance, since the skill only sets a process and style and does not add domain tools (it is general guidance).
  • Situations where the agent has no access to files, tests, or logs, because the skill requires direct evidence and will otherwise label its answer as inference.

Try asking

  • “Audit this diff and explain what changed and whether it is safe to merge.”
  • “Verify that the login bug fix works and tell me what is still not proven.”
  • “Summarize these test results in plain language for my non-technical manager.”
  • “Check whether the report I generated matches my original request.”

  3. 3

    Ask for the task

    No special command needed — the agent reads the skill's description and loads it when your request matches. Try one of the prompts above.

Get better results

  • Give the agent access to the repo, test commands, or logs so it can verify rather than infer.
  • State the audience (for example, a non-technical reader) so the explanation fits.
  • Ask for the most useful next test if you want to know what would raise confidence further.
