strict-api
Use when the user says 'no hallucinations', 'verify APIs' or 'don't invent functions', or code depends on a library version you have not checked. Requires proof that every method, import and variable exists in the installed version before using it.

# Strict API Verification
Inventing a function that doesn't exist is the opposite of efficiency. You wrote a line that looks minimal. You shipped a bug that takes an hour to debug. The true minimal path is: use only what is provably there.
## Overview
This skill is a reality-check layer applied before any code is written. It is not about being slow — it is about being correct the first time. Use it alongside `minimalist` when the user wants both less code and verified code.
## The Only Rule
Before you write any function call, import, or method access, you must be able to answer:
**"Does this exist in the version the user is running?"**
