Story Verification Skill

Validate Stories/Tasks with explicit GO/NO-GO verdict, Readiness Score, and Anti-Hallucination verification.

Purpose & Scope

  • Validate Story plus child Tasks against industry standards and project patterns
  • Calculate Penalty Points for violations, then auto-fix to reach 0 points
  • Delegate to ln-002-best-practices-researcher for creating documentation (guides, manuals, ADRs, research)
  • Support Plan Mode: show audit results, wait for approval, then fix
  • Approve Story after fixes (Backlog -> Todo) with tabular output summary

When to Use

  • Reviewing Stories before approval (Backlog -> Todo)
  • Validating implementation path across Story and Tasks
  • Ensuring standards, architecture, and solution fit
  • Optimizing or correcting proposed approaches

Penalty Points System

Goal: Quantitative assessment of Story/Tasks quality. Target = 0 penalty points after fixes.

Severity Points Description
CRITICAL 10 RFC/OWASP/security violations
HIGH 5 Outdated libraries, architecture issues
MEDIUM 3 Best practices violations
LOW 1 Structural/cosmetic issues

Workflow:

  1. Audit: Calculate penalty points for all 20 criteria
  2. Fix: Auto-fix and zero out points
  3. Report: Total Before -> 0 After

Mode Detection

Detect operating mode at startup:

Plan Mode Active:

  • Phase 1-2: Full audit (discovery + research + penalty calculation)
  • Phase 3: Show results + fix plan -> WAIT for user approval
  • Phase 4-6: After approval -> execute fixes

Normal Mode:

  • Phase 1-6: Standard workflow without stopping
  • Automatically fix and approve

Plan Mode: Progress Tracking with TodoWrite

When operating in any mode, skill MUST create detailed todo checklist tracking ALL phases and steps.

Rules:

  1. Create todos IMMEDIATELY before Phase 1
  2. Each phase step = separate todo item
  3. Mark in_progress before starting step, completed after finishing

Todo Template (~21 items):

Phase 1: Discovery & Loading
  - Auto-discover configuration (Team ID, docs)
  - Load Story metadata (ID, title, status, labels)
  - Load Tasks metadata (3-8 implementation tasks)

Phase 2: Research & Audit
  - Extract technical domains from Story/Tasks
  - Delegate documentation creation to ln-002
  - Research via MCP Ref (RFC, OWASP, library versions)
  - Verify technical claims (Anti-Hallucination)
  - Calculate Penalty Points (20 criteria)

Phase 3: Audit Results & Fix Plan
  - Display Penalty Points table and fix plan
  - Wait for user approval (Plan Mode only)

Phase 4: Auto-Fix (8 groups)
  - Fix Structural violations (#1-#4)
  - Fix Standards violations (#5)
  - Fix Solution violations (#6)
  - Fix Workflow violations (#7-#13)
  - Fix Quality violations (#14-#15)
  - Fix Dependencies violations (#18-#19)
  - Fix Risk violations (#20)
  - Fix Traceability violations (#16-#17)

Phase 5: Agent Review (MANDATORY — delegated to ln-311)
  - [MANDATORY] Invoke ln-311-agent-reviewer with story_ref + tasks_ref
  - [MANDATORY] Process and apply accepted suggestions to Story/Tasks

Phase 6: Approve & Notify
  - Set Story/Tasks to Todo status in Linear
  - Update kanban_board.md with APPROVED marker
  - Add Linear comment with validation summary
  - Display tabular output to terminal

Workflow

Phase 1: Discovery & Loading

Step 1: Configuration & Metadata Loading

  • Auto-discover configuration: Team ID (docs/tasks/kanban_board.md), project docs (CLAUDE.md), epic from Story.project
  • Load metadata only: Story ID/title/status/labels, child Task IDs/titles/status/labels
  • Expect 3-8 implementation tasks; record parentId for filtering
  • Rationale: keep loading light; full descriptions arrive in Phase 2

Phase 2: Research & Audit

Always execute for every Story – no exceptions.

Step 1: Domain Extraction

  • Extract technical domains from Story title + Technical Notes + Implementation Tasks
  • Load pattern registry from references/domain_patterns.md
  • Scan Story content for pattern matches via keyword detection
  • Build list of detected domains requiring documentation

Step 2: Documentation Delegation

  • For EACH detected pattern, delegate to ln-002:
    Skill(skill="ln-002-best-practices-researcher",
          args="doc_type=[guide|manual|adr] topic='[pattern]'")
    
  • Receive file paths to created documentation (docs/guides/, docs/manuals/, docs/adrs/, docs/research/)

Step 3: Research via MCP

  • Query MCP Ref for industry standards: ref_search_documentation(query="[topic] RFC OWASP best practices 2025")
  • Query Context7 for library versions: resolve-library-id + query-docs
  • Extract: standards (RFC numbers, OWASP rules), library versions, patterns

Step 4: Anti-Hallucination Verification

  • Scan Story/Tasks for technical claims (RFC references, library versions, security requirements)
  • Verify each claim has MCP Ref/Context7 evidence
  • Flag unverified claims for correction
  • Status: VERIFIED (all sourced) or FLAGGED (list unverified)

Step 5: Penalty Points Calculation

  • Evaluate all 20 criteria against Story/Tasks
  • Assign penalty points per violation (CRITICAL=10, HIGH=5, MEDIUM=3, LOW=1)
  • Calculate total penalty points
  • Build fix plan for each violation

Phase 3: Audit Results & Fix Plan

Display audit results:

  • Penalty Points table (criterion, severity, points, description)
  • Total: X penalty points
  • Fix Plan: list of fixes for each criterion

Mode handling:

  • IF Plan Mode: Show results + “After your approval, changes will be applied” -> WAIT
  • ELSE (Normal Mode): Proceed to Phase 4 immediately

Phase 4: Auto-Fix

Execute fixes for ALL 20 criteria on the spot.

  • Execution order (8 groups):
    1. Structural (#1-#4) — Story/Tasks template compliance + AC completeness/specificity
    2. Standards (#5) — RFC/OWASP compliance FIRST (before YAGNI/KISS!)
    3. Solution (#6) — Library versions
    4. Workflow (#7-#13) — Test strategy, docs integration, size, cleanup, YAGNI, KISS, task order, Database Creation
    5. Quality (#14-#15) — Documentation complete, hardcoded values
    6. Dependencies (#18-#19) — Story/Task independence (no forward dependencies)
    7. Risk (#20) — Implementation risk analysis (after dependencies resolved, before traceability)
    8. Traceability (#16-#17) — Story-Task alignment, AC coverage quality (LAST, after all fixes)
  • Use Auto-Fix Actions table below as authoritative checklist
  • Zero out penalty points as fixes applied
  • Test Strategy section must exist but remain empty (testing handled separately)

Phase 5: Agent Review (MANDATORY — DO NOT SKIP)

MANDATORY STEP: This phase MUST execute regardless of Phase 4 results. Skipping agent review is a workflow violation. If agents unavailable, ln-311 returns SKIPPED — acceptable. But invocation MUST happen.

Invoke Skill(skill="ln-311-agent-reviewer", args="{storyId}").

  • ln-311 gets Story/Task references from Linear, builds prompt with references, runs agents in parallel, persists prompts and results in .agent-review/{agent}/.
  • If verdict = SUGGESTIONS → apply ACCEPTED suggestions to Story/Tasks text.
  • If verdict = SKIPPED (no agents or all failed) → proceed to Phase 6 unchanged.
  • Display: agent stats from ln-311 output: "Agent Review: {agent_stats summary}"

Phase 6: Approve & Notify

  • Set Story + all Tasks to Todo (Linear); update kanban_board.md with APPROVED marker
  • Add Linear comment with full validation summary:
    • Penalty Points table (Before -> After = 0)
    • Auto-Fixes Applied table
    • Documentation Created table (docs created via ln-002)
    • Standards Compliance Evidence table
  • Display tabular output (Unicode box-drawing) to terminal
  • Final: Total Penalty Points = 0
  • Recommended next step: ln-400-story-executor to start Story execution

Final Assessment Model

Outputs after all fixes applied:

Metric Value Meaning
Gate GO / NO-GO Final verdict for execution readiness
Readiness Score 1-10 Quality confidence level
Penalty Points 0 (after fixes) Validation completeness
Anti-Hallucination VERIFIED / FLAGGED Technical claims verified
AC Coverage 100% (N/N) All ACs mapped to Tasks

Readiness Score Calculation

Readiness Score = 10 - (Penalty Points / 5)
Score Status Gate
9-10 Excellent GO
7-8 Good GO
5-6 Acceptable GO (with notes)
3-4 Concerns NO-GO (requires review)
1-2 Critical NO-GO (major issues)

Anti-Hallucination Verification

Verify technical claims have evidence:

Claim Type Verification
RFC/Standard reference MCP Ref search confirms existence
Library version Context7 query confirms version
Security requirement OWASP/CWE reference exists
Performance claim Benchmark/doc reference

Status: VERIFIED (all claims sourced) or FLAGGED (unverified claims listed)

Task-AC Coverage Matrix

Output explicit mapping:

| AC | Task(s) | Coverage |
|----|---------|----------|
| AC1: Given/When/Then | T-001, T-002 | ✅ |
| AC2: Given/When/Then | T-003 | ✅ |
| AC3: Given/When/Then | — | ❌ UNCOVERED |

Coverage: {covered}/{total} ACs (target: 100%)

Self-Audit Protocol (Mandatory)

Verify all 20 criteria (#1-#20) from Auto-Fix Actions pass with concrete evidence (doc path, MCP result, Linear update) before proceeding to Phase 6.

Critical Rules

  • All 20 criteria MUST be verified with concrete evidence (doc path, MCP result, Linear update) before Phase 6 (Self-Audit Protocol)
  • Fix execution order is strict: Structural -> Standards -> Solution -> Workflow -> Quality -> Dependencies -> Risk -> Traceability (standards before YAGNI/KISS)
  • Never approve with Penalty Points > 0; all violations must be auto-fixed to zero
  • Test Strategy section must exist but remain empty (testing handled separately by other skills)
  • In Plan Mode, MUST stop after Phase 3 and wait for user approval before applying any fixes

Definition of Done

  • Phases 1-6 completed: metadata loaded, research done, penalties calculated, fixes applied, agent review done, Story approved.
  • Penalty Points = 0 (all 20 criteria fixed). Readiness Score ≥ 5.
  • Anti-Hallucination: VERIFIED (all claims sourced via MCP).
  • AC Coverage: 100% (each AC mapped to ≥1 Task).
  • Agent Review: ln-311 invoked; suggestions aggregated, validated, accepted applied (or SKIPPED if no agents).
  • Story/Tasks set to Todo; kanban updated; Linear comment with Final Assessment posted.

Example Workflow

Story: “Create user management API with rate limiting”

  1. Phase 1: Load metadata (5 Tasks, status Backlog)
  2. Phase 2:
    • Domain extraction: REST API, Rate Limiting
    • Delegate ln-002: creates Guide-05 (REST patterns), Guide-06 (Rate Limiting)
    • MCP Ref: RFC 7231 compliance, OWASP API Security
    • Context7: Express v4.19 (current v4.17)
    • Penalty Points: 18 total (version=5, missing docs=5, structure=3, standards=5)
  3. Phase 3:
    • Show Penalty Points table
    • IF Plan Mode: “18 penalty points found. Fix plan ready. Approve?”
  4. Phase 4:
    • Fix #6: Update Express v4.17 -> v4.19
    • Fix #5: Add RFC 7231 compliance notes
    • Fix #13: Add Guide-05, Guide-06 references
    • Fix #17: Docs already created by ln-002
    • All fixes applied, Penalty Points = 0
  5. Phase 5: Agent review (delegated to ln-311-agent-reviewer → apply accepted suggestions)
  6. Phase 6: Story -> Todo, tabular report

Template Loading

Templates: story_template.md, task_template_implementation.md

Loading Logic:

  1. Check if docs/templates/{template}.md exists in target project
  2. IF NOT EXISTS: a. Create docs/templates/ directory if missing b. Copy shared/templates/{template}.md → docs/templates/{template}.md c. Replace placeholders in the LOCAL copy:
    • {{TEAM_ID}} → from docs/tasks/kanban_board.md
    • {{DOCS_PATH}} → “docs” (standard)
  3. Use LOCAL copy (docs/templates/{template}.md) for all validation operations

Rationale: Templates are copied to target project on first use, ensuring:

  • Project independence (no dependency on skills repository)
  • Customization possible (project can modify local templates)
  • Placeholder replacement happens once at copy time
