Check Your Output
Checking is a real, separate step. The skill makes the agent report its own work, but reading that report is not the same as auditing the skill: a citation can resolve to a real file and still say the wrong thing. That gap is the whole point of The Audit. Here you do the lighter pass: read the self-report, then trust your eyes.
The self-report
At the end of the run, the agent prints:
- Citations: every component it used, traced to its source: prop claims cite the installed package's type files (
node_modules/@primer/react/.../<Component>.d.ts:<line>), composition lifts cite the reference project. - Unverified facts: anything the agent could not back up with source code ships as a literal
[VERIFY]marker, never as a silent claim. Zero markers is the goal; a short list is honest; a missing list is a red flag. - Shell parity: the page background paints from the design system's token (not a hardcoded color), the
ThemeProviderwraps the app correctly, and both color modes were checked before finishing.
If the report is missing, ask for it: "print the post-generation report". The skill defines it; the agent knows what you mean.
The eyes pass
The report covers what is mechanically checkable. The rest is taste, and that's a feature, not a gap. Put your output next to your neighbour's and ask:
- Does the lock hold? Tab to the merge button while the checks are still running. It must not be actionable. The moment everything goes green it should unlock.
- Flip the color mode. The whole page recolors, background included. A white flash behind a dark card means the shell rule was missed.
- Watch the motion. Checks land with a visible beat, the capsule flips Open → Merged. Dominoes, not fireworks, and
prefers-reduced-motionis honoured. - Squint test. Does the hierarchy read at a glance (title, capsule, counts, checks, merge box) or is everything the same weight?
- Confirm both flips. Light↔dark recolors the page, and Open→Merged flips the capsule. You should see both, not one.
This is the eyes pass, not the audit. A citation can point to a real file and still be false: Layer 1 (the link resolves) is not Layer 2 (the claim is true). That deeper check is its own step: see The Audit.
