Skill 07 — QA Review

Purpose: Verify acceptance criteria, edge cases, and regressions with evidence.

Protocols:

• •[[docs/PROTOCOLS/VAULT_PROBE]]
• •[[docs/PROTOCOLS/EVIDENCE]]
• •[[docs/PROTOCOLS/RUN_LOGGING]]
• •[[docs/PROTOCOLS/PATCH_GATE]]
• •[[docs/PROTOCOLS/CONTEXT_BUDGET]]

Tools:

• •[[tools/repl/README]] — patch-gated edits (generate + check + apply)

Inputs (from Orchestrator)

• •docs/tasks/<task_slug>.md (required)
• •Latest change summary (e.g., artifacts/changeset_summary.json)
• •Latest test report (e.g., artifacts/test_report.md)

Outputs (must write)

• •artifacts/qa_checklist.md
• •[[docs/skills/07_qa_review/SUMMARY]]

Run log (recommended)

Create: artifacts/_runs/<timestamp>_07_qa_review/

Steps

1. •Slice-read acceptance criteria from the task.
2. •Confirm tests/build results (slice-read test report).
3. •Run targeted probes to verify key behavior (examples):
   • •search for TODO/FIXME in touched areas
   • •confirm config keys and routes exist
4. •Create artifacts/qa_checklist.md:
   • •checklist of acceptance criteria
   • •pass/fail + evidence pointer
   • •any risks or follow-ups
5. •Write SUMMARY.md stating whether exit criteria are satisfied and why.

Definition of Done

• • QA checklist exists and covers all acceptance criteria
• • Each checklist item has evidence pointer or explicit verification command
• • Summary clearly states PASS/FAIL and next steps
