Verify Changes

Run comprehensive verification of recent code changes using multi-subagent adversarial approach.

Phase 1: Gather Context

Run these commands to understand what changed:

git diff HEAD~1 --stat
git log -3 --oneline
git diff --name-only HEAD~1

Identify affected files and their corresponding test files.

Phase 2: Spawn Verification Subagents (Parallel)

Use the Task tool with run_in_background: true to spawn subagents in parallel.

CRITICAL: Launch ALL subagents in a SINGLE message for true parallelism:

[All Task calls in ONE message]

Task 1: {
  description: "Syntax & Type Check",
  prompt: "Run language-specific type checker (tsc, mypy, go vet)...",
  run_in_background: true
}

Task 2: {
  description: "Test Runner",
  prompt: "Run tests for affected files first, then integration tests...",
  run_in_background: true
}

Task 3: {
  description: "Lint & Style Check",
  prompt: "Run project linter (eslint, ruff, golangci-lint)...",
  run_in_background: true
}

Task 4: {
  description: "Security Scan",
  prompt: "Grep for hardcoded secrets, check for vulnerabilities...",
  run_in_background: true
}

Task 5: {
  description: "Build Validator",
  prompt: "Run build command, verify artifacts exist...",
  run_in_background: true
}

After all complete, use TaskOutput to retrieve each result:

TaskOutput: task_1_id
TaskOutput: task_2_id
TaskOutput: task_3_id
TaskOutput: task_4_id
TaskOutput: task_5_id

Subagent Details

Subagent 1: Syntax & Type Check

• Run language-specific type checker (tsc, mypy, go vet)
• Report any type errors or warnings
• Exit with list of issues found

Subagent 2: Test Runner

• Run tests for affected files first
• Run related integration tests
• Report failures with file:line context

Subagent 3: Lint & Style Check

• Run project linter (eslint, ruff, golangci-lint)
• Check for formatting issues
• Report violations with severity

Subagent 4: Security Scan

• Grep for hardcoded secrets (passwords, API keys, tokens)
• Check for common vulnerabilities in new code
• Review any new dependencies

Subagent 5: Build Validator

• Run build command
• Verify build artifacts exist
• Check for build warnings

Phase 3: Adversarial Review

Spawn 3 adversarial subagents to review Phase 2 findings:

Adversarial A: False Positive Filter

• Review each finding from Phase 2
• Determine if it's a real issue or false alarm
• Provide reasoning for each determination

Adversarial B: Missing Issues Finder

• Look for issues the first pass might have missed
• Check edge cases in changed code
• Verify error handling is adequate

Adversarial C: Context Validator

• Verify findings make sense in project context
• Check if "issues" are actually intentional patterns
• Consider project conventions

Phase 4: Synthesize Results

Combine all subagent outputs into final report:

## Verification Results: [PASS/FAIL]

### Confirmed Issues
1. [Issue] - [Location] - [Why it's confirmed real]

### Warnings (Review Recommended)
1. [Warning] - [Location] - [Context]

### All Checks
- [ ] Type checking: [PASS/FAIL]
- [ ] Tests: [PASS/FAIL]
- [ ] Linting: [PASS/FAIL]
- [ ] Security: [PASS/FAIL]
- [ ] Build: [PASS/FAIL]

### Subagent Summary
- Initial findings: X issues
- After adversarial review: Y confirmed issues
- False positives filtered: Z

Usage

Copy this file to your project's .claude/commands/ directory:
