isolated
Apply Chain-of-Verification (CoVe) with true factored verification using isolated sub-agents.
Overview
Apply Chain-of-Verification (CoVe) with true factored verification using isolated sub-agents.
This mode spawns separate sub-agents for each verification question, ensuring they have zero context about the initial answer. Use when maximum accuracy is required.
Arguments: $ARGUMENTS
Flags
| Flag | Effect | Use Case |
|---|---|---|
| (none) | general-purpose agent | Default, full tool access |
--explore | Explore agent | Codebase-related verification |
--haiku | Use haiku model | Faster/cheaper verification |
--agent=<name> | Custom agent type | User-defined agents |
Flag Parsing Rules:
- Flags must appear before the question
- Flags start with
-- --agent=valueformat for custom agents- Unknown flags are treated as part of the question
- Flags can be combined in any order
Invocation
If $ARGUMENTS is provided:
- Extract any flags from the beginning of $ARGUMENTS
- Apply CoVe isolated verification to the remaining question
- Pass extracted flags to the workflow
If $ARGUMENTS is empty: Apply CoVe isolated verification to the previous response in the conversation.
Process
Invoke the kk:chain-of-verification skill using the chain-of-verification-isolated.md workflow:
- Generate Initial Answer (or use previous response if verifying)
- Create 3-5 Verification Questions targeting potential errors
- Spawn isolated sub-agents to answer each question (parallel execution)
- Reconcile findings and produce final verified answer with agent metadata
Examples
Basic isolated verification:
/kk:chain-of-verification:isolated What is the default port for PostgreSQL?
Codebase verification with Explore agent:
/kk:chain-of-verification:isolated --explore How does the auth middleware work in this project?
Faster verification with haiku model:
/kk:chain-of-verification:isolated --haiku What is the speed of light in m/s?
Custom agent type:
/kk:chain-of-verification:isolated --agent=general-purpose What is the capital of France?
Combined flags:
/kk:chain-of-verification:isolated --haiku --explore What testing pattern does this codebase use?
Verify previous response:
/kk:chain-of-verification:isolated
(Use after receiving a response to verify it with isolated sub-agents)
