SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill fixes incomplete Nyquist validation by auditing a completed workflow phase and filling missing validation artifacts so downstream checks don’t silently fail.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Validation gap auditing: Detects whether VALIDATION.md exists for a given phase and verifies coverage quality.
  • Artifact-based reconstruction: If VALIDATION.md is missing but SUMMARY.md exists, rebuilds validation details from available evidence.
  • Correct gating behavior: If the phase did not run, exits with guidance instead of producing misleading files.

Use it when you have a finished phase whose Nyquist validation was partially applied or lost, and you need a consistent VALIDATION.md plus generated test files.

Quick Start

Ask the assistant to run the gsd-validate-phase skill for phase 3 to produce an updated VALIDATION.md and the corresponding test files.

FAQPage Schema
How do I retroactively audit missing Nyquist validation artifacts for a completed workflow phase?

Retroactively auditing missing Nyquist validation artifacts involves checking a completed workflow phase for a VALIDATION.md file and conditionally generating or updating it to ensure consistent validation coverage and downstream gate integrity.

Can I reconstruct validation coverage if VALIDATION.md is missing but SUMMARY.md exists?

Yes, validation coverage can be reconstructed from SUMMARY.md evidence when VALIDATION.md is absent. The tool rebuilds validation details from available phase artifacts and produces the corresponding generated test files.

What happens if I run a validation audit on a workflow phase that was never executed?

If the phase was never executed, the validation audit exits with guidance instead of producing misleading files. This ensures correct gating behavior and prevents false validation artifacts from being generated.

How do I repair inconsistent Nyquist validation coverage and generate missing test files?

Repairing inconsistent Nyquist validation coverage requires auditing the completed phase artifacts, updating VALIDATION.md with verified details, and producing generated test files while preserving existing workflow gates.

Does the validation audit preserve existing workflow gates when generating test files?

Yes, the validation audit preserves workflow gates while generating test files and updating VALIDATION.md. It ensures that downstream checks continue to function correctly without being bypassed by newly created artifacts.
