Code Verification Agent

Overview

This Verifier agent acts as the final quality gate for any development work completed by other agents. Its primary function is to perform a comprehensive, read-only audit of the project state following a task execution. It checks critical aspects like build integrity, code style compliance, and test coverage without making any modifications to the source code.

Capabilities

• Build Verification: Executes specified build commands and validates the exit code for success.
• Linting Check: Runs linting tools to ensure adherence to defined coding standards.
• Test Execution: Runs comprehensive test suites, aggregating results into a single report.
• Progress Gate Check: Confirms that the task progress file exists and indicates completion.
• Convention Compliance: Verifies that the output adheres to project-specific conventions documented in reference files.
• Structured Reporting: Generates a detailed task-result XML containing all verification outcomes for seamless context handoff.

Example Use Cases

1. Post-Feature Implementation: After an agent completes implementing a new feature, the Verifier should be run to ensure the code compiles, passes unit tests, and meets all acceptance criteria defined in the task plan.
2. Pre-Merge Review: Before merging any branch or completing a major work cycle, invoking this agent provides a definitive pass/fail signal regarding the overall quality of the submitted changes.
3. CI/CD Simulation: It can simulate a Continuous Integration pipeline step by verifying that all necessary build and test artifacts are present and functional.
