bad-atom

To validate skill metadata, this tool checks SKILL.md frontmatter and skill.meta.json files to ensure atoms do not incorrectly declare dependencies. It flags invalid metadata where a dependency field is present on an atom that should have none.

Your CI check fails because manifest validation rules prohibit certain atoms from declaring dependencies. This skill identifies atoms that incorrectly include a dependencies list, preventing broken skill graphs from being deployed.

You lint a skill manifest by comparing SKILL.md frontmatter and skill.meta.json dependency declarations against expected dependency rules. This process reports precise validation failures for atoms with disallowed dependencies.

Yes, you can use this as a release safety guardrail in CI pipelines. It prevents invalid atom definitions from propagating into installs and workflows by catching configuration mistakes during skill packaging.

Dependency rule validation for skill packaging is the process of detecting atoms that incorrectly include a dependencies list in their metadata. It ensures each atom's manifest follows expected dependency constraints before team builds.

Yes, this skill validates both SKILL.md frontmatter and skill.meta.json files. It requires comparing dependency declarations across both files to the expected dependency rules and reporting any validation failures.
