1. .githooks/commit-msg, tracked:
#!/usr/bin/env bash
set -euo pipefail
git agent-verdict --require-version {{line}}
git agent-verdict "$1" core --model opus \
--standard programming --standard testing --path .
git agent-verdict "$1" repo --model opus \
--doc docs/standards.md \

chmod +x .githooks/commit-msg
- Line order is review order. Gate names are yours, and reach the trailer as Reviewed-<name>.
- A gate needs one --standard, --doc or --rule, and takes any mix.
- --simple drops the MAJOR rung: reports, never blocks.
- --model passes through unchecked. Omitted, the agent picks.
- --path is a git pathspec, matching at any depth.
- --doc paths are placeholders here; one that does not resolve is refused.
- $KB and friends expand, so a rubric may live outside the repo where nothing can stage it.
- Staging a rubric is refused. It lands on its own with --no-verify.
- --standards lists what this build ships; --standards <name> prints one.
- A rule over 128 KiB fails the exec, and one carrying a newline splits in two. Redirect it to
a file and --doc that:
rubric="$(git rev-parse --git-path agent-verdict-generated.md)"
generate-rubric > "$rubric"
2. Per clone, by hand:
git config core.hooksPath .githooks
3. Per host. No default: unset, attest refuses rather than spend on an agent nobody chose.
git config --global agent-verdict.runner claude
4. Commit through the tool:
git agent-verdict attest --repo /abs/path/to/this/repo \
--intent "<the aim, one flat line>"
- One gate per run, in declaration order. The last run commits.
- The message is composed from --intent. Nothing is handed back to paste.
- --repo is absolute; the shell's directory is never consulted.
- Fixing what a review named re-opens its gate. Run it again after each fix.
- --intent is needed on the first run only.
- No wait loop. A second attest refuses at once, naming the pid holding the repo."#;
