SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Validating sprint workflow YAML files ensures correct structure, schema compliance, and reference integrity before sprint execution, reducing runtime errors and misconfigurations.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Schema and structure validation for sprint workflow YAML files.
  • Detection of common issues such as missing name, missing phases, duplicate phase IDs, and mutual exclusivity of fields.
  • Guidance and actionable fixes leveraging the project reference materials.
  • Proactive checks during workflow development and when troubleshooting.

Quick Start

Use the validator on a workflow file: node plugins/m42-sprint/compiler/dist/index.js validate path/to/workflow.yaml If no path is available, Claude can infer the workflow from conversation context and validate it.
