What it does
Verify is an agent skill from kylesnowschwartz/claude-code-hero. Verify your current Claude Code Hero quest level. Use when the learner types /claude-code-hero:verify or /verify, asks to check their work, or wants to see quest progress.
Its SKILL.md is about 250 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 Agent Workflows.
When your agent uses it
- The learner types /claude-code-hero:verify
- Asks to check their work
- Wants to see quest progress
Example prompts
- “/verify”
Requirements
- Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Bash("jq '.current_level' .claude/claude-code-hero.json"), Read
Workflow steps
2 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- /verify 5 -- user gave a level number. Run ruby scripts/cli.rb verify 5. Report PASS or FAIL. Done.
- /verify -- no argument. Run ruby scripts/cli.rb verify . Report PASS or FAIL. Done.
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 4abcc6d. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:
Bash("jq '.current_level' .claude/claude-code-hero.json")Read
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
rubyjq
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 loads about 245 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 45 tokens; SKILL.md has 94 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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.
SKILL.md
Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 94 words (~245 tokens).
“Verify quest completion for Claude Code Hero. The CLI is the source of truth -- do not perform semantic evaluation.”
