At a glance

End-of-session code review — checks for unused imports, console.logs, missing error handling, hardcoded values, and edge cases before committing.

  • The user is done coding and wants a final pass before committing
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

Verify Work is an agent skill from hamzafarooq/claude-code-starter. End-of-session code review — checks for unused imports, console.logs, missing error handling, hardcoded values, and edge cases before committing. Use when the user is done coding and wants a final pass before committing or shipping.

Its SKILL.md is about 380 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Development. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • The user is done coding and wants a final pass before committing

Example prompts

  • “/verify-work”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 172c531. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Verify Work loads about 383 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 61 tokens; SKILL.md has 186 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~61
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~383

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Verify Work — Pre-Commit Review

Cleanliness
  • No console.log, print, or debug statements left in
  • No commented-out code blocks
  • No TODO comments that belong in the backlog, not the file
  • No unused imports or variables
Correctness
  • Every function that can fail has error handling
  • No hardcoded API keys, URLs, or credentials
  • Environment variables are used for config values
  • No hardcoded user IDs, test emails, or magic numbers without a constant name
Edge cases

For each modified function, check:

  • What happens if the input is null, empty, or the wrong type?
  • What happens if an API call fails or times out?
  • What happens on first run with no existing data?
Security
  • No user input is passed directly to a shell command, SQL query, or file path
  • No sensitive data logged to console or written to files

Report format:

For each issue found:

File: path/to/file.ts line [N] Issue: [what's wrong] Fix: [specific change to make]

If nothing is found: "All clear — no issues found in the reviewed files."


Fix issues directly if asked. Otherwise report only, don't change files.
