I had my 23 Denali fob stolen, so I had my spare and a new fob re-set at a local locksmith. Does anyone know how I can verify that the locksmith actually re-set the fob and didn't just program the new one to match the old one? Can I contact GM or my dealer to verify?

Did you directly ask the locksmith this question, and if so, what did they say? It would be unusual for a locksmith to lie in response to a direct question.

The locksmith told me that they had done the re-set, but I would like to be able to 100% verify that it was re-set.. Otherwise the person with my fob can steal my rig easily

Go ahead and get IGLA installed on your rig. You won’t worry about anyone starting and driving off with it. Even if your system was reset, thieves can make a cloned key of your new setup and drive off with it.
