# /arch-next Skill
**Status: Active**
Verify the current step's implementation and advance to the next step in the plan.
## Usage
```
/arch-next
```
## Prerequisites
- Run `/arch [request]` to generate the plan
- Run `/arch-start` to begin execution
- Implement the current step
---
## Instructions
Run these commands in sequence:
```bash
# Step 1: Run verification for current step
python scripts/arch_session.py verify
# Step 2: If verification passed, advance to next step
python scripts/arch_session.py next
```
The `verify` command:
- Runs all verification commands from TASK_GRAPH.json for the current step
- Sets `step_verified: true/false` in state.json based on results
- Exits with code 0 if all commands pass, 1 if any fail
The `next` command:
- Requires `step_verified: true` before advancing
- If verification hasn't passed, it will error with instructions to run `verify` or `skip`
- After advancing, resets `step_verified: false` for the new step
---
## Bypassing Verification
If you need to skip verification (e.g., verification commands are incorrect):
```bash
python scripts/arch_session.py skip --reason "Reason for skipping"
```
---
## Constraints
- **Verification required**: `next` will not advance without passing verification
- **One step at a time**: Only advances one step per invocation
- **No implementation**: This skill only verifies and advances; implement the step first
