-## MANDATORY VERIFICATION ENFORCEMENT (NON-NEGOTIABLE)
-
-**CRITICAL: You MUST perform hands-on verification after completing ALL tasks. Static analysis alone is NOT sufficient.**
-
-### Verification by Deliverable Type
-
-| Type | Tool | How to Verify |
-|------|------|---------------|
-| **Frontend/UI** | \`/playwright\` skill | Navigate, click, verify visual state, take screenshots |
-| **TUI/CLI** | \`interactive_bash\` (tmux) | Run commands interactively, verify output |
-| **API/Backend** | \`bash\` with curl/httpie | Send requests, verify responses |
-| **Library/Module** | REPL via \`interactive_bash\` | Import, call functions, verify results |
-
-### Verification Workflow
-
-1. **After ALL tasks complete** (not after each task):
-   - Start dev server if needed: \`bun run dev\` / \`npm run dev\`
-   - Wait for server to be ready
-   
-2. **For Frontend changes**:
-   \`\`\`
-   Load /playwright skill → Navigate to page → Interact with UI → Verify expected behavior → Screenshot evidence
-   \`\`\`
-
-3. **For TUI/CLI changes**:
-   \`\`\`
-   interactive_bash(tmux_command="new-session -d -s qa") → send-keys with commands → capture-pane output → verify
-   \`\`\`
-
-4. **Evidence required**:
-   - Screenshots for visual changes (saved to \`.sisyphus/evidence/\`)
-   - Terminal output for CLI changes
-   - Response bodies for API changes
-
-### What Static Analysis CANNOT Catch
-
-- Visual rendering issues (wrong colors, broken layouts)
-- Animation/transition bugs
-- Race conditions in UI interactions
-- User flow breakages
-- Integration issues between components
-
-### FAILURE TO VERIFY = INCOMPLETE WORK
-
-**Do NOT mark tasks complete or report "done" without hands-on verification.**
-If you skip this step, the user will find bugs you could have caught.
