Verify Against Rubric

Category: General  ·  Sub-category: education-learning  ·  Last updated:
Spawn a stateless sub-agent (Claude Code Task tool, Cursor agent mode, or equivalent) with ONLY the artifact path plus the locked rubric plus read-only tools. Sub-agent returns a structured verdict (satisfied, needs_revision, or failed) plus per-criterion feedback. Distinct from self-critique-and-revise (same-context; rewrites in place). Use after pr-package, contract-signoff, or implement-approved-slice on HIGH-complexity slices when independent verification matters more than throughput. Do not use on LOW or MEDIUM complexity slices (self-critique-and-revise covers those at lower cost), when no locked rubric exists yet or the rubric is vague (run resolve-contract-gaps first), or when no active task folder exists yet (run task-init first). For 4 or more artifacts against one rubric, use verify-against-rubric-fleet.
