LOAD_AND_VERIFY pattern for every phase with external references. Forces Read, extracts proof value, halts on failure. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
- Add GLOB_AND_VERIFY pattern for directories (Phase 7) - Add platform-api.md and per-platform spec gates to Phase 3 - Update verification checks Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
8 tasks: gate pattern definitions, then gates for phases 1, 2, 0b, 3, 5, 6, 7, 8. Single file change in SKILL.md. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Every phase that depends on external references now forces a Read, extracts a proof value, and halts if the file is missing. 16 gates across 8 phases. Phase 3 includes platform-api.md and per-platform spec gates. Phase 7 uses GLOB_AND_VERIFY for the install-docs directory. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
External references must be read, proven, and followed — not just hinted at. LOAD_AND_VERIFY for files, GLOB_AND_VERIFY for directories. Documents what makes a good proof and when gates are needed. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
