thinceller Before claiming a change is done, fixed, or passing, run the verification appropriate to it — build, tests, lint, or the actual behavior — and read what it printed.
Evidence precedes assertion: the claim quotes or summarizes what the command actually output, not what it's expected to output.
Report failures as failures, with the output that shows them. If a verification was skipped, say so — don't imply it ran. No hedged success claims ("should work now", "this probably fixes it") in place of a result.
