Phase Goal: Users can opt into active key verification with a consent prompt, legal documentation, and per-provider API calls that confirm whether a found key is live and return metadata about the key's access level.

Goal Achievement
Observable Truths (from ROADMAP Success Criteria)
#
Truth
Status
Evidence
1
keyhunter scan --verify triggers one-time consent prompt; must type "yes" to proceed
VERIFIED
pkg/verify/consent.go:30EnsureConsent; prompt text contains "legal implications", "keyhunter legal", "Type 'yes' to proceed"; wired in cmd/scan.go before VerifyAll; consent persisted via db.SetSetting(ConsentSettingKey, ConsentGranted); tests TestEnsureConsent_* pass
pkg/verify/verifier.go reads spec.URL, spec.Method, spec.Headers, spec.Body, spec.EffectiveSuccessCodes(), spec.EffectiveFailureCodes(), spec.EffectiveRateLimitCodes(); grep for provider names in verifier.go finds only a generic comment; TestTier1VerifySpecs_Complete asserts all 12 Tier-1 providers have URL+SuccessCodes
3
--verify extracts and displays org/rate-limit/permissions metadata when provider returns them
VERIFIED
gjson.GetBytes extraction in pkg/verify/verifier.go; 9 Tier-1 YAMLs carry metadata_paths; Finding.VerifyMetadata populated in cmd/scan.go:145; pkg/output/table.goverifySymbol + metadata ↳ line renders map; TestVerify_MetadataExtraction, TestPrintFindings_Metadata_Rendered pass
4
--verify-timeout=30s changes per-key timeout from default 10s
VERIFIED
scan --help shows --verify-timeout duration (default 10s); NewHTTPVerifier(flagVerifyTimeout) wired in cmd/scan.go; DefaultTimeout = 10*time.Second in verifier.go; TestVerify_Timeout exercises per-call timeout
5
LEGAL.md ships with the binary documenting legal implications of --verify
VERIFIED
LEGAL.md (109 lines) at repo root; identical pkg/legal/LEGAL.md embedded via //go:embed LEGAL.md; cmd/legal.golegalCmd registered; go run . legal prints content; contains "CFAA", "Computer Misuse", "Responsible Use", "Disclaimer"

comment "// substituteKey replaces both {{KEY}} and the legacy {KEY} placeholder"
Info
False-positive: mentions "legacy" in a doc comment; not a stub
No blocker or warning anti-patterns found. No TODO/FIXME/placeholder/"not yet implemented" markers in phase 5 code.
Human Verification Required
None. All success criteria have been verified through file inspection, grep checks, test execution, and CLI spot-checks. A human could optionally smoke-test the end-to-end flow with a real API key, but all automated checks pass.
Gaps Summary
None. All 5 Success Criteria from ROADMAP are met, all 6 requirements are satisfied, all 13 artifacts exist with substantive implementations, all 10 key links are wired (2 tool false-negatives confirmed wired by manual inspection), all unit tests pass, and the binary builds cleanly. The verification engine is complete and ready for users to opt into.
