FAQPage Schema

How do I validate my environment integrity and catch configuration issues before runtime?▼

Environment validation checks your .claude setup for completeness, verifying component discovery, cross-references between agents and skills, and external tool availability. Run the /health command to generate a structured diagnostic report that prevents runtime failures.

What does a health check validate in my .claude configuration?▼

A health check validates YAML/JSON configuration correctness, discovers agents, commands, skills, and hooks, verifies agent-skill and command-agent references, ensures skill completeness, and confirms external tools are accessible.

Can I use health checks to diagnose missing tools or broken skill references?▼

Yes. Health checks discover all components and validate their cross-references, identifying missing tools, broken agent-skill links, and incomplete skill definitions before they cause failures during execution.

How do I verify that all my agents and skills are properly wired together?▼

Run the health check to validate all cross-references between agents, commands, and skills. The structured report identifies any missing or misconfigured connections in your .claude environment.

What's the best way to set up environment diagnostics for my .claude workspace?▼

Execute the /health command to run environment diagnostics. It performs comprehensive validation of component discovery, configuration file syntax, tool availability, and reference integrity across your entire setup.
