# Plan Verifying Execution

> Post-execution verification methodology for plan-execution-checker — confirms completed plan implementation actually did what the plan said, as the temporal sibling of plan-validating-quality's pre-execution rules (same rule domains — operational readiness, manual assertions, worktree usage, anti-hallucination, knowledge capture, delivery mode — checked against the post-execution repo state instead of the authored plan text).

# Verifying Plan Execution

Full post-execution validation methodology for `plan-execution-checker`: confirms a completed plan's
implementation matches what was promised, and that every execution-time gate actually held.

## Core Principles

**This is the final quality gate** — be thorough, independent, and uncompromising. **Every rule
states its own criticality** per finding, not a blanket file-level severity. **Post-execution
re-checks, not re-derives**: `plan-checker` validates the plan is well-formed at authoring time;
this skill validates execution actually did what the well-formed plan said, against the
post-execution repo state (git log, CI status, delivered files) — the finding types overlap in name
but the evidence source never does. **Blocking gates block archival unconditionally** — Knowledge
Capture (Step 5h) and any CRITICAL finding halt archival regardless of how many other checks passed.

Before pass, perform an end-to-end trace from scope and every canonical PRD acceptance criterion to
delivery units, as-built code/docs/C4/rules, automated and manual proof, applicable schema migration/
rollout/rollback evidence, recovery and deferred-item dispositions, and Knowledge Capture. Do not
trust checked boxes alone. Any missing or unsupported row reopens execution at the earliest affected
granular outcome-section checklist. Apply this contract prospectively; do not report migration findings against archived
plans or the existing Rhino plan.

Verify that delivery followed natural cohesive seams rather than LOC or file counts and that every
merged state was immediately safe to deploy to production. For incomplete behaviour, require the
temporary production-disabled flag, enabled and disabled path tests, and recorded rollout,
rollback, and removal.
