FAQPage Schema
How do I validate skill metadata and resources in a repository?▼

To validate skill metadata and resources, detect a root SKILL.md file and extract its frontmatter. This process confirms linked assets like scripts or references are accessible and compatible with the body instructions.

What is the best way to test a skill file without executing its scripts?▼

Dry-run verification allows quick checks of a skill's structure without executing code. It validates the presence of SKILL.md and ensures linked resources are accessible and consistent with the declared metadata.

How does frontmatter extraction work for repository resources?▼

Frontmatter extraction identifies a root SKILL.md file and parses its name and description fields. This produces a structured metadata set including tagline, complexity, category, and keywords for repository validation.

Do I need a SKILL.md file to validate repository metadata?▼

Yes, a SKILL.md file is required to validate repository metadata. The skill identifies and validates self-contained units by detecting this root file and extracting its frontmatter to ensure resource compatibility.

Can I use this validation for repository areas with optional assets?▼

Yes, validation applies to repository areas containing optional resources like scripts, references, or assets. It ensures these resources are only processed when referenced by SKILL.md and compatible with body instructions.
