What Factory Verify does

Factory Verify checks an open factory PR before human review by rerunning gates, proving the test fails without the fix, and checking scope and test tampering. Use it when verifying a PR or independently reviewing a change.

Factory Verify is cataloged under Quality on DirSkills. Factory Verify comes from a repository tagged agentic-engineering, claude-code, codex and software-factory.

Documentation

README

Factory verify

Use this when a PR already exists and you are the check standing between it and a human. For verification during implementation, the factory-verifier subagent is the right tool; this skill is the PR-level version and can be driven by a GitHub-triggered routine.

Procedure

This is the opening of the README. Read the full README on GitHub.
