To validate plugin structure and references, you can scan the plugin tree and compare its inventory against an authoritative manifest file to surface gaps, broken references, and missing components.

Framework integrity validation detects inconsistencies and drift within a plugin framework by checking workflows, agents, commands, and knowledge indexes. You need to run it when your framework grows with new plugins to catch broken references early.

Yes, you can check config resolution and knowledge-index consistency together by validating configuration scripts and knowledge indexes simultaneously, producing a consolidated findings report suitable for CI pipelines.

The best way to audit a plugin tree for missing files and unresolved references is to perform an end-to-end validation against the authoritative manifest, enforcing strict checks on workflows, agents, and configuration resolution.

Manifest validation works across core, lifecycle, dev, creative, and testing plugin areas, walking the entire plugin tree to compare inventory against the manifest and ensure end-to-end consistency.

Config resolution fails during framework validation when the configuration cannot be resolved correctly through the designated resolution script, as the validation process enforces strict checks on this resolution to ensure end-to-end consistency.
