SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires git, and includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Inconsistent naming between a skill's SKILL.md frontmatter and its directory name (e.g., analysis-decompose vs. decompose) leads to confusion, broken references, and issues with skill discovery. This Skill automates the validation and correction of these inconsistencies.

Core Features & Use Cases

Name Validation: Verifies the name field in SKILL.md frontmatter matches the category-skillname directory convention.
Automatic Fixes: Safely updates SKILL.md files to correct mismatches with a --fix flag.
Comprehensive Reporting: Provides clear reports of all inconsistencies found across plugins.
Use Case: Run this Skill before creating a pull request or release to ensure all skill names are correctly formatted and consistent, preventing documentation and discovery issues.
