Summary

  • Design machine-checkable assertions, stable hashes, fixtures, and exit-code contracts for behavior that must be reproducible.
  • Use when an outcome currently depends on subjective agent judgment or when prompts and generated artifacts need versioned integrity checks.
  • Do not use merely to run an existing repository verification gate; that is verify's job.

Determinism

Turn a repeated judgment into an executable contract.

Procedure

  1. Name the exact input, expected invariant, and authoritative readback.
  2. Use the simplest deterministic mechanism: parser, schema, fixture, checksum, query, or narrow test.
  3. Return a meaningful exit status: 0 for satisfied, nonzero for a specific failure class.
  4. Keep diagnostics compact and stable enough for another script or agent to consume.
  5. Version prompts or generated contracts when their semantics affect the result; record a hash when drift must be detected.
  6. Prove both a passing case and a deliberately failing case.

Boundary

  • determinism designs the assertion or integrity mechanism.
  • verify selects and runs the repository's declared gates.
  • testing skills construct broader behavioral test suites.
