| Every serious project needs a scripted way to drive the real app and prove behavior: launch it, exercise a feature the way a user would, and capture evidence. This skill generates that as a project-local skill (`<skills>/verify-<app>/`) tailored to the repo. `<skills>` is your harness's project skill folder: `.cursor/skills/` in Cursor, `.claude/skills/` in Claude Code, `.pi/skills/` in Pi, `.agents/skills/` in Codex, OpenCode, and others. If the repo already keeps skills in one of these, use that one. You write the generator's output for the next agent, not for a human: it will be read cold, mid-task, by an agent that has never seen the app. |

Disclose when requested reference evidence is unavailable. If a user explicitly requests reference-grounded work and retrieval returns no relevant reference, both instructions require silence. The agent can then present work without making clear that the requested grounding is absent.

Judge assertions by the behavior they verify, not by matcher name.
Lines 17–18 classify toBeDefined, toEqual([]), toHaveLength(0), toBeInstanceOf, and toBeGreaterThan(0) as weak because of their form. These assertions fail when the subject returns undefined, and they can verify valid behavior such as an empty search result. Line 23 also requires an absence check to include a positive case in the same test, which can combine independent behaviors. Qualify these examples against the tested contract instead of treating them as invalid by default.

Use the installed skill names in the dependency notes.
Line 71 references pstack/benchmark-checklist, but the installed name is pstack-benchmark-checklist. Line 73 similarly references pstack/principle-explain-the-number instead of pstack-principle-explain-the-number. Use the exact skill names so agents can resolve these prerequisites.
The installed names match the supplied skills manifest and catalogue context.

Update the dependency notes for pstack-principle-explain-the-number and
pstack-principle-prove-it-works to use the exact installed skill names:
pstack-benchmark-checklist and pstack-principle-explain-the-number,
respectively.

| # Create a verification skill | ||
|
|
||
| Every serious project needs a scripted way to drive the real app and prove behavior: launch it, exercise a feature the way a user would, and capture evidence. This skill generates that as a project-local skill (`<skills>/verify-<app>/`) tailored to the repo. `<skills>` is your harness's project skill folder: `.cursor/skills/` in Cursor, `.claude/skills/` in Claude Code, `.pi/skills/` in Pi, `.agents/skills/` in Codex, OpenCode, and others. If the repo already keeps skills in one of these, use that one. You write the generator's output for the next agent, not for a human: it will be read cold, mid-task, by an agent that has never seen the app. |

When an Obvious thread runs this skill, the instructions direct it to an existing .agents/skills or .claude/skills directory because .obvious/skills is omitted. Obvious discovers repository skills only under .obvious/skills, so the generated verify-<app> skill will not be available to later Autobuild threads; select the current host explicitly and include Obvious's documented skill directory.

The vendored SKILL.md hashes to 68fc4b6d..., but this entry records 0d663037.... Running sha256sum -c CHECKSUMS.sha256 in the added package therefore reports SKILL.md: FAILED, so any refresh or integrity check that uses the bundled checksum file will reject this package as corrupted; regenerate the checksum after modifying the skill.

| - Write down the claim you expect to make, in the words you would ship ("export is 30% faster at p50 on the 60k-row dataset"). The questions test that sentence. | ||
| - Read the measurement script. Note what it times, what it counts, and what it ignores. | ||
| - Check the load average with `uptime` and the core count with `nproc`. If the machine is busy, find out what is running. If you cannot stop it, interleave the sides so both see the same noise, and say so in the report. |

On the repository's shared macOS hosts, this mandatory pre-run step fails unless GNU Coreutils was separately installed because nproc is a GNU Coreutils command; Apple documents sysctl -n hw.logicalcpu as the native equivalent. Add a macOS or portable fallback so benchmark work does not stop with command not found. Apple processor-count documentation

After generating a verification skill, this instruction sends the user to /maintain-verification-skill, but a repository-wide search finds no such skill or command under .obvious, .agents, or .claude; it exists as a separate upstream pstack skill that this commit did not vendor. A fresh agent thread therefore cannot follow the advertised maintenance loop, so vendor and list that dependency or remove the unavailable command.

| **Why:** A test that cannot fail for a defect costs CI time and review attention and catches nothing. A constant pin also fails when someone edits the constant or the prompt it restates, so it prevents that edit. | ||

There was a problem hiding this comment.
When an agent applies this skill to JavaScript or TypeScript tests, this bullet labels toBeDefined, toBeTruthy, toBeInstanceOf, and toBeGreaterThan(0) as assertions that still pass when the subject returns undefined, but each matcher fails for undefined; Vitest explicitly documents the first two as useful missing-value checks. This false diagnostic can make agents rewrite or delete tests that do catch a missing result, so limit the list to assertions that actually survive the proposed mutation and evaluate weaker matchers separately.

| **The patterns:** | ||
|
|
||
| - **Make illegal states unrepresentable.** Model variants as sum types: discriminated unions in TypeScript, enums with payloads in Rust/Swift/Kotlin, sealed classes in Scala, ADTs in Haskell/OCaml. Don't model state as a bag of optional fields where contradictory combinations compile. A subtle anti-pattern: `{ completed: boolean; completedAt?: Date }` admits `completed: true; completedAt: undefined`, which is meaningless. Derive the boolean from a single source like `completedAt !== null`, or model the variants explicitly as `{ kind: 'open' } | { kind: 'done'; at: Date }`. If a bug forces the question "wait, can this combination actually happen?", the type is too loose. |
There was a problem hiding this comment.
In the TypeScript example, completedAt?: Date can be undefined, and undefined !== null evaluates to true; following this recommendation therefore marks an object with no completion timestamp as completed. Either make the replacement field non-optional with type Date | null, or derive the flag with a comparison that excludes both null and undefined.

Verdict: FIX
Reviewed head c8730986601f75af4995adb9d348bb5aff1a4bc4 under the PM's limited vendoring scope: secrets, licence files, and paths outside .obvious/ and AGENTS.md. No task row applies (task_id: null).
.obvious/skills/anti-ui-slop/NOTICE:7–12declares included material from MIT-licensed platform-design-skills, but this skill carries only the Apache licence and an author/link notice. The declared dependency's copyright and MIT permission notice are not retained alongside it. Include that upstream licence notice, or correct the provenance declaration if the rewritten iOS playbook no longer includes its material. Upstream licence.
Criteria met 2/3: all 50 changed paths remain inside the allowed scope; scans of those changed bytes found no GitHub/API/AWS/Slack token, private-key or literal credential-assignment matches. Licence packaging is partial: all 11 manifest-listed skills have LICENSE files, pstack copies retain MIT and SOURCE.md, and the anti-ui-slop declared MIT dependency needs the correction above. No application/build/workflow changes or local test run. CI/security statuses do not resolve the licence packaging issue.

What changed
Agent threads that work in BaseScanning only see what's in the repo, whether they run in Obvious, Claude Code or Codex. This PR commits 11 of Sam's skills into
.obvious/skills/. That's the folder Obvious Autobuild scans for repo skills, and it follows Autobuild's rules: one folder per skill, no nesting, lowercase names. The PR also adds an "Agent skills" section toAGENTS.mdlisting them, so every agent that starts here reads the same playbooks first:anti-ui-slop: Run the Uizze reference-guided design playbook or UI finish check when explicitly requestedblast-radius: Assess what a change could break beyond its diffpstack-benchmark-checklist: Vet a perf measurement (limiter, tuning, limits, errors, repeatability, relevance, and whether the work happened) before you report or act on itpstack-create-verification-skill: Generate a project-local verification skill that drives your app the way a user does — any language, framework, or platformpstack-principle-boundary-discipline: Apply when wiring validation, error handling, or framework adapterspstack-principle-explain-the-number: Apply before you trust, report, or act on a number you measured: a speedup, a regression, a throughput, a latency, or an eval result (needed bypstack/benchmark-checklist)pstack-principle-foundational-thinking: Apply before writing logic: choosing core types and data structures, sequencing scaffold-vs-feature work, asking what concurrent actors sharepstack-principle-prove-it-works: Apply after completing a task, before declaring done (needed bypstack/principle-explain-the-number)pstack-principle-test-behavior-not-implementation: Apply when you write, change, or keep a testpstack-principle-type-system-discipline: Apply when designing types, reviewing a function signature, or writing code in any statically-typed languagepstack-technical-writing: Layered technical-writing standard: Diátaxis structure, Google developer style sentences, STE instruction rules, Global English syntaxThe area lead for this repo picked the set.
Skills named
pstack-*are Lauren Tan's pstack, MIT-licensed, vendored from the backnotprop mirror at commit 3a60467. Each one keeps its LICENSE and a SOURCE.md in its own folder. Its cross-links were renamed to match thepstack-folder names. A skill that came from a third-party package carries that package's LICENSE in its folder.Why
Sam asked for his local skills and pstack in each repo. That way, work done by Obvious threads follows the same rules as his local agents: describing product behavior, writing PRs, proving that a change works, and polishing UI.
Autobuild only loads skills from the default branch. Skills on an unmerged PR branch are never loaded. So these take effect for Obvious once this PR reaches the default branch.
Verification
node_modulesfolders and files over 1 MB were skipped..obvious/, so they resolve. A linked sibling skill was vendored whole, and it's marked "needed by" in the list above.^[a-z0-9][a-z0-9_-]*$. The script refuses to commit when one doesn't.Risk
