Testing & Quality

Verify numerical claims in documentation are still accurate

QUICK START

How to use this skill

Bring this guide into your coding agent with a prompt tailored to the tool you use.

Open your project in Codex.
Copy and paste the prompt below.
Review files and risks before approving any action.

Prompt to paste

Inspect the Agent Skill at https://github.com/ldayton/Dippy/blob/HEAD/.claude/skills/verify-counts/SKILL.md and all supporting files. Report provenance, permissions, scripts, dependencies, and security risks. Propose an exact installation into .agents/skills/verify-counts, but wait for my approval before writing files or running scripts.

Copying this prompt does not install or run the skill. Review third-party files before use.

Verify all count assertions in documentation against actual values.

Claims to Verify

Location	Claim	Verification
`README.md:14`	14,000+ tests	Dippy + Parable combined
`../Dippy.wiki/Reference/Security-Model.md:79`	Over 200 read-only commands	SIMPLE_SAFE count
`../Dippy.wiki/Reference/Security-Model.md:94`	Over 80 tools	CLI handler count
`../Dippy.wiki/Reference/Handler-Model.md:210`	80+ handlers	CLI handler count

Verification Commands

Dippy tests:

uv run pytest --collect-only -q 2>/dev/null | tail -1

Parable tests: Check table in /Users/lily/source/Parable/tests/README.md

SIMPLE_SAFE count:

uv run python -c "from src.dippy.core.allowlists import SIMPLE_SAFE; print(len(SIMPLE_SAFE))"

CLI handlers:

ls -1 src/dippy/cli/*.py | grep -v __init__ | wc -l

Output

Report each claim with:

Documented value
Actual value
Status (PASS/FAIL/STALE)

Status Criteria

PASS: Actual value is within ~10% of documented value
STALE: Claim is technically true but significantly outdated (e.g., "50+" when actual is 77)
FAIL: Claim is false

If any claim is STALE or FAIL, note which file(s) need updating.
