# Technical Manuscript Verification
## Core Lens
Technical nonfiction must work in the reader's environment, not just in the author's memory. Verification checks whether commands run, configs are coherent, screenshots match text, links still resolve, safety boundaries are clear, and the reader has enough context to recover from failure.
Use this skill to audit:
- Technical book chapters and tutorials.
- Self-hosting and infrastructure guides.
- Code snippets, shell commands, Docker Compose files, config examples, diagrams, and screenshots.
- Claims that depend on current platform behavior or version-specific documentation.
- Pre-beta or pre-publication technical accuracy.
