skill-validator

Skill validation checks frontmatter format, description length, token usage under 5000, and file link integrity. Run the validator on your skill directory to catch structure and compliance issues automatically before deployment.

Validation enforces frontmatter presence and correct format, ensures descriptions exclude XML content and meet length requirements, verifies examples and purpose statements exist, and confirms all cross-file links are intact.

Skill validation applies throughout the skill lifecycle—during creation, editing, and auditing stages—so you can catch quality issues early rather than waiting until final publication.

Skill validation enforces a maximum token usage of 5000 to ensure skills remain efficient and within resource constraints during execution.

Yes, validation confirms the presence of related skills references and verifies that all command and dependency references are correctly defined and linked within the skill.

Validation inspects scripts, references, and assets components, checking frontmatter compliance, description content, link integrity, and naming conventions across all skill files.
