Verification Before Completion

Never declare work complete without running verification commands and confirming their output. Evidence before assertions, always.

Core Rule

Before claiming ANY of the following, you MUST run the relevant verification commands and confirm their output:

• "Tests pass"
• "The fix works"
• "Build succeeds"
• "Everything is green"
• "Ready to commit/push/merge"
• "Done" / "Complete" / "Finished"
