Overview ¶
Package verify implements `canary verify`: the evidence-backed answer to "are this project's claims true right now?". It reads declarations from the tree, claims from a gap-analysis file, and passing-test evidence from the evidence store, then delegates the verdict to pkg/evidence.Complete — the single completion function. Nothing here decides completeness on its own.

Constants ¶
const ( FormatJSON = "json" FormatText = "text" )
Format values accepted by --format.
const DefaultEvidencePath = ".canary/evidence.json"
DefaultEvidencePath is the evidence store's path relative to the project root.
Variables ¶
var VerifyCmd = &cobra.Command{ Use: "verify [flags]", Short: "Verify claimed requirements against passing-test evidence", Long: `Verify that every requirement claimed in a gap-analysis file has passing evidence recorded at the current commit. Claims are lines like "✅ <REQ-ID>" in the claims file. For each claimed requirement, every feature/aspect it declares in source must have a PASS evidence record for this project at HEAD. Declarations alone (STATUS=TESTED, TEST=...) never verify anything. Exit codes: 0 verified, 1 not verified (or unknowable).

Types ¶
type Options ¶
type Options struct {
Root string
ClaimsPath string
EvidencePath string
Format string
// ProjectID overrides the configured project.key when non-empty.
ProjectID string
AllowEmpty bool
AllowUnknownExternal bool
// AllowDirty accepts a working tree that does not match HEAD. Without
// it, Run refuses with DIRTY_TREE: evidence bound to HEAD cannot answer
// for a tree HEAD no longer describes.
AllowDirty bool
}
Options are the resolved inputs of one verification run.
