Verify and stop
Translate acceptance conditions into smallest sufficient proof set.
- Reuse still-current results with matching repository state.
- Run focused checks before wider gates.
- Distinguish pass, fail, unavailable, and blocked exactly.
- Do not edit product code unless verification request includes fixes.
- Do not add polish, cleanup, or unrelated tests after criteria pass.
Stop immediately when acceptance proof is complete. Report commands, results, and unresolved risk only.
