Krites
Krites: Verification plugin for Claude Code that runs checks and blocks agent stops until they pass.
Krites is an open source verification plugin for Claude Code that runs your repository checks and blocks agent stops until they pass. It protects specified paths from edits, executes configured check commands without a shell, and generates signed JSON receipts with cryptographic verification. The plugin requires Claude Code and Node 20 or later, installing via Anthropic's plugin directory or a local repository. It is designed for developers using Claude Code who want to enforce automated testing and code quality checks before an AI agent session can stop. Key mechanisms include attempt budgets, slow check handling, and offline receipt validation.
