You can validate SKILL.md files for structural integrity and functional correctness by using a skill testing framework that performs static linting on frontmatter and evaluates behavioral compliance against test specifications. This ensures both form and function meet quality standards.

Skill testing is the process of verifying code quality and compliance by checking skill files against category-specific rubrics and test specifications. It evaluates structural completeness and behavioral correctness to ensure adherence to defined quality standards.

To check SKILL.md frontmatter completeness and formatting, use a structural linter that performs static checks on the file. This verifies that all required metadata fields are present and correctly formatted according to the framework specifications.

Yes, you can evaluate skill behavior automatically by running a behavioral verifier against the defined test specifications. This process assesses functional correctness and generates a coverage report detailing skill and agent specification adherence.

Yes, the Codex Skill Testing Framework supports category-specific quality metrics through its category rubric feature. This checks skills against tailored quality standards to ensure compliance within specific software engineering categories.

The best way to report on skill and agent specification coverage is to use a validation tool that generates a comprehensive coverage report. This report evaluates both structural linting results and behavioral verification outcomes against test specifications.
