Skill validation tests your agent skill against the Agent Skills Specification v1.0, checking directory structure, YAML frontmatter, required fields, and naming conventions. Run skill-tester on your skill directory to generate a detailed compliance report before sharing or deploying.
Skill validation detects missing SKILL.md files, invalid YAML frontmatter, mismatched directory and skill names, broken references, absent required fields, and malformed metadata. These checks catch deployment blockers early.
Skill-tester validates individual skills against the specification. Run it on each skill directory to generate validation reports. For team-wide quality assurance, apply skill-tester before post-modification testing and compliance reviews to catch errors consistently.
Validation reports provide structured findings documenting all specification compliance checks: file presence, YAML validity, field completeness, name format adherence, and directory-name matching results for comprehensive error detection.
Skill-tester has no external dependencies. It operates as a standalone script component that performs directory and file analysis, YAML parsing, and specification checks without requiring additional tools or libraries.
