SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Execute verification steps from PLAN.md and produce VERIFICATION.md to ensure planning work is validated before proceeding.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Read and execute verification steps from PLAN.md to systematically validate acceptance criteria.
  • Record results in VERIFICATION.md with a clear status and evidence for each step.
  • Use case: In a software project, run this skill after planning to automatically generate a verifiable verification report for phase gates.

Quick Start

Run the gsd-verify-work skill on a repository containing .planning/PLAN.md to generate .planning/VERIFICATION.md.

FAQPage Schema
How do I verify plan steps and generate verification documentation for a software workflow?▼

To verify plan steps, you execute verification criteria from a PLAN.md file and generate a VERIFICATION.md report. This process systematically validates phase completion and records traceable evidence with a final PASSED or FAILED status.

What is the best way to automate phase gate verification in a DevOps pipeline?▼

Automating phase gate verification involves reading defined acceptance criteria from PLAN.md and auto-generating a VERIFICATION.md file. This yields deterministic phase results and traceable evidence, ensuring formal validation before advancing stages.

How do I create a traceable verification report with PASSED or FAILED status for software development?▼

Creating a traceable verification report requires executing planned validation steps and recording the evidence in VERIFICATION.md. The generated document contains a table of step results and a final PASSED or FAILED indicator for full traceability.

Do I need a specific planning file format to run automated verification step execution?▼

Yes, you need a repository containing a PLAN.md file within a .planning directory. The verification process reads this specific markdown format to execute steps and output the corresponding VERIFICATION.md document.

Can I use this verification approach for software projects requiring formal phase completion before proceeding?▼

Yes, this verification approach is specifically designed for software development workflows requiring formal phase completion. It executes planned steps, collects evidence, and outputs a status report to satisfy deterministic phase gate requirements.

Why does my verification report show a FAILED status when running workflow planning steps?▼

A FAILED status in your verification report indicates that one or more acceptance criteria defined in PLAN.md were not met during execution. The generated VERIFICATION.md provides a table detailing which specific step results caused the failure.
