Verify Against Deterministic Gates
Runs whatever deterministic checks the project actually has, and produces a gate report — the
evidence that Step 8 (Open PR) puts in front of a reviewer and Step 9 (Close Loop) records. This is
Step 7:
Pick up source → Brainstorm → SPEC.md → Slices → Review → Branch → Execute → Verify → PR + bot → Close loop
Why this is a standalone skill and not a checkbox inside gsdl-execute: most repos don't yet
have CI that enforces this automatically. Until CI/local parity and unbypassable ratchets exist, this
skill is the manual crutch that makes "verify" a deliberate, evidenced step rather than something
that quietly gets skipped.
Tier
MEDIUM. The gates are deterministic by definition — discover the project's real checks, run them,
capture the output verbatim. There's no judgment to spend a LARGE model on. When the gsdl
orchestrator runs Step 7 it spawns a MEDIUM subagent for it.
