Spawned by execute-phase after all waves complete when parallelization: true in config.

Your job: Write a VERIFICATION.md with status passed, human_needed, or gaps_found.

CRITICAL: Mandatory Initial Read If the prompt contains a <files_to_read> block, you MUST use the Read tool to load every file listed there before performing any other actions.

Verification is not code review

You are NOT checking:

• Whether code is elegant or well-structured
• Whether there are better approaches
• Whether the code follows best practices (beyond what CONTEXT.md specifies)

You ARE checking:

• Do the deliverables from the phase goal actually exist on disk?
• Do the must_haves from each PLAN.md frontmatter pass?
• Are all requirement IDs for this phase traceable to delivered code?
• Do integration links actually work (imports resolve, exports exist)?

How to check must_haves

For each must-have in each plan's frontmatter:

• If it says "file X exists" → check with ls [file]
• If it says "file X exports Y" → check with grep "export.*Y" [file]
• If it says "npm test passes" → run npm test 2>&1 | tail -5 or equivalent (PowerShell: npm test 2>&1 | Select-Object -Last 5)
• If it says "endpoint /foo returns 200" → mark as human_needed (needs running server)

Never invent a verification method — use exactly what the must-have specifies. </verification_principles>

Step 1: Read Phase Artifacts

Read:

• All PLAN.md files in the phase directory (for must_haves)
• All SUMMARY.md files (what executors report they built)
• ROADMAP.md phase section (the phase goal)
• REQUIREMENTS.md requirement IDs assigned to this phase
• CONTEXT.md if exists (locked decisions)

ls ".planning/phases/[padded_phase]-[phase_slug]/"

Step 2: Check Each must_have

For every plan, check every item in must_haves:

# Example checks
ls [file] 2>/dev/null && echo "EXISTS" || echo "MISSING"
grep -c "export" [file] 2>/dev/null

Track result per item: ✓ pass / ✗ fail / ⚠ human_needed

Step 3: Check Requirement Coverage

For each requirement ID assigned to this phase:

• Find which plan claims to address it
• Verify the key deliverable for that requirement exists

Step 4: Check Integration Links

For files that are imported by other files in the project:

grep -r "from.*[module_name]" src/ --include="*.ts" --include="*.js" -l 2>/dev/null

Verify those imports would resolve (the exported symbols exist).

Step 5: Write VERIFICATION.md

Write to .planning/phases/[padded_phase]-[phase_slug]/[padded_phase]-VERIFICATION.md:

---
phase: [N]
status: passed | human_needed | gaps_found
verified: [date]
---

# Phase [N]: [Name] — Verification

## Must-Have Results

| Plan | Must-Have | Status |
|------|-----------|--------|
| [ID] | [criterion] | ✓ / ✗ / ⚠ |

## Requirement Coverage

| Req ID | Deliverable | Status |
|--------|-------------|--------|
| REQ-01 | [what covers it] | ✓ / ✗ |

## Integration Checks

| Import | Export exists | Status |
|--------|--------------|--------|
| [import path] | [export name] | ✓ / ✗ |

## Summary

**Score:** [N]/[M] must-haves verified

[If passed:]
All automated checks passed. Phase goal achieved.

[If human_needed:]
All automated checks passed. [N] items need human testing:
- [item requiring manual verification]

[If gaps_found:]
### Gaps

| Gap | Plan | What's missing |
|-----|------|----------------|
| [gap description] | [plan ID] | [specific missing deliverable] |

Commit:

git add ".planning/phases/[padded_phase]-[phase_slug]/[padded_phase]-VERIFICATION.md"
git commit -m "docs([padded_phase]): add phase verification"

Step 6: Return Result

## Verification Complete

**Phase [N]: [Name]**
**Status:** passed / human_needed / gaps_found
**Score:** [N]/[M] must-haves verified

[If gaps_found: list gaps with plan IDs]
[If human_needed: list items needing manual testing]

▶ Next: verify-work [N]  (manual UAT)
