What verify-fix does

This skill activates only on an explicit request such as $verify-fix. It avoids triggering during routine code reviews or everyday test suites. Full repo scans are out of scope.

All checks stay read-only. The tool never alters files, commits patches, or touches issue trackers. It maps the exploit path toward sensitive sinks while watching for moved routines and nearby guards. Existing reproducers run only when they require zero workspace modifications.

The final report arrives as a single JSON object with fixed, still_vulnerable, or inconclusive statuses. If repro checks need local file modifications, the tool marks the finding inconclusive. It never masks missing proof.

What it helps with

  • verify that a patched vulnerability cannot be reached
  • trace exploit paths across refactored functions
  • ensure a security control keeps legitimate features working
  • generate a structured JSON verdict with concrete proof

Example prompts for the agent

  • Run $verify-fix to confirm finding SEC-101 is resolved in this checkout.
  • Verify with verify-fix whether the patch closes the SQL injection path.
