Closes #651

Problem

aish skill verify exited 0 even when verification failed:

Script perms	Output	Exit code
0644	Valid: NO	0
0744	Valid: YES	0

Callers checking only the exit status could not distinguish "verification completed but invalid" from "passed".

Change

• cmd_verify now returns Err when report.valid is false → exits 1 with a stderr summary (Skill 'x' failed verification (N check(s) failed).)
• "Skill not found" was already non-zero and stays textually distinct
• Human-readable Valid: NO report unchanged
• 3 regression tests: valid (0744), invalid (0644, the issue's repro), missing skill — isolated via AISH_CONFIG_DIR + tempfile

Verification

• cargo test -p aish-cli: 55+3 pass
• cargo clippy -p aish-cli --all-targets: clean
• release binary, 4 scenarios: invalid=1, valid=0, missing=1, unsafe-name=1

Summary by CodeRabbit

• Bug Fixes
  • aish skill verify now returns a failure status for invalid skills and succeeds only for valid ones. Missing skills continue to report an error, and the human-readable verification report is unchanged.
• Documentation
  • Updated the changelog with details about skill verification results, AI request settings, reporting, MCP functionality, and session selection.

Walkthrough

aish skill verify now returns an error when a skill fails verification and succeeds only when verification passes. Tests cover valid, invalid, and missing skills. The changelog documents the exit behavior and notes that the human-readable report is unchanged.

Changes: Skill verification result

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Verification result and coverage crates/aish-cli/src/skill_cmd.rs, crates/aish-cli/Cargo.toml, CHANGELOG.md	Invalid skills now return an error with the skill name and number of failed checks; the existing missing-skill error remains distinct. Tests cover valid, invalid, and missing skills. The changelog records the exit behavior and unchanged report. Test support adds tempfile and serializes changes to AISH_CONFIG_DIR.

Invalid skills currently produce the promised nonzero exit status. The change is mergeable, though a binary-level assertion would better protect that automation contract.

Full details: Title check

Explanation

The title names the main change: aish skill verify now exits non-zero when verification fails. It uses the conventional fix(skills) prefix and is specific enough for a teammate scanning history. The changeset matches it. The skill_cmd.rs change makes cmd_verify return an error for invalid skills, and regression tests cover valid, invalid, and missing skills.

Full details: Linked Issues check

Explanation

Directly linked issue #651 requests a stable non-zero status for invalid aish skill verify results, or an explicit strict or structured mode. The PR takes the default-behavior option. Per the raw summary, cmd_verify returns Err when report.valid is false. This exits 1 with a stderr summary, Skill 'x' failed verification (N check(s) failed).. Valid skills exit 0. The release-binary scenarios report invalid=1, valid=0, missing=1, unsafe-name=1. Missing skills stay non-zero and textually distinct from invalid results, which meets the requirement that execution errors and missing targets be distinguishable. The CHANGELOG entry documents the exit contract, as #651 asks. Three regression tests cover valid, invalid (the 0644 repro from the issue), and missing skills. Two items in #651 are not covered: structured output and batch-call acceptance. The issue presents structured output as an alternative to the non-zero status ('或'), and the PR does not claim it. No separate batch-verify code path is identified in the summary, so batch calls reduce to repeated single invocations with the same exit code. This is a residual gap in test coverage, not a failed core requirement. The source was not inspected beyond the summary and diff hunks described in it.

Full details: Out of Scope Changes check

Explanation

The PR changes four files per the raw summary. (1) crates/aish-cli/src/skill_cmd.rs (+86/-1): changes cmd_verify exit behavior, adds three tests, and adds a mutex that serializes tests modifying AISH_CONFIG_DIR. All of this supports #651. (2) crates/aish-cli/Cargo.toml (+3/-0): adds tempfile.workspace = true under [dev-dependencies], which the isolated tests need. (3) CHANGELOG.md (+1/-0): one added line documents the new aish skill verify exit contract. The summary also lists temperature, max_tokens, /report, MCP, and session-selection entries. The +1/-0 line count shows these are existing content, not changes from this PR, so they are not out of scope for this PR. (4) Cargo.lock is in ignored_files and was not inspected. Its expected change, for the new dev-dependency, is a dependency-lock update and is not a scope concern. No change was found that is unrelated to #651.

Full details: Docstring Coverage

Explanation

Docstring coverage is 50.00% which is insufficient. The required threshold is 80.00%. Docstring coverage is scoped to functions touched by this diff with cyclomatic complexity of at least 2. Documentation-only edits and deletions within surviving functions are included; unchanged diff context and fully deleted functions are excluded. Analyzed 2 functions across 1 files. (2 skipped: 2 unsupported.)

Resolution

Write docstrings for the functions missing them to satisfy the coverage threshold.

Test the binary exit status for invalid skills

Run aish skill verify against an isolated invalid skill and assert both Valid: NO and exit status 1. The current test only checks cmd_verify’s return value, so it cannot catch a regression in main’s error-to-exit mapping.
