SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires PyYAML, and includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Vault notes often lack consistency, evidence, and proper cross-linking, leading to quality drift and delayed ship readiness. This skill provides a deterministic quality gate (with optional AI review) to enforce standards before notes reach knowledge/.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Deterministic 13-rule checklist (description, topics, type, body length, cross-links, provenance, and more) that flags issues prior to shipping.
  • Optional AI review pass to surface vague claims, missing evidence, or guidance gaps.
  • Automatic routing: failed notes move to inbox/review for remediation; passing notes ship into knowledge/ for consumption.
  • /extract integration: gates notes at commit time as part of the vault workflow.

Quick Start

Run the vault-quality-gate on knowledge/<slug>.md to determine if the note can ship.

Frequently Asked Questions about vault-quality-gate

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate vault note quality checks before committing?

You can use this pre-commit quality gate to enforce vault note standards automatically by validating frontmatter, body structure, cross-references, and provenance before finalizing updates.

What is a deterministic quality gate for knowledge management?

It is an automated validation process that enforces consistent structure, evidence, and cross-linking in vault notes to prevent quality drift and ensure ship readiness before notes reach consumption.

How do I handle vault notes that fail quality validation checks?

Failing vault notes are automatically routed to an inbox/review directory for remediation, while passing notes ship directly into the knowledge directory for consumption.

Does the vault quality gate support AI review for content clarity?

Yes, it includes an optional AI review pass that surfaces vague claims, missing evidence, or guidance gaps alongside its deterministic 13-rule structural checklist.

Do I need PyYAML to run the vault quality gate?

Yes, PyYAML is required as a dependency to run the vault quality gate, as the scripts use it to parse and validate YAML frontmatter in your vault notes.
