SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Developers waste time manually validating changes and chasing flaky tests across local edits, pre-commit hooks, and CI. This skill centralizes and speeds up the day-to-day validation loop to provide fast, reliable feedback.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Day-to-day coding loop: edit code, run validation, read extracted errors, fix, revalidate, repeat.
  • Wraps core vibe-validate commands (vv validate, vv pre-commit, vv state, vv run, vv sync-check) for deterministic caching and clear error summaries.
  • Suitable for local development, pre-commit hooks, and CI pipelines to ensure fast feedback loops and consistent results.

Quick Start

Edit code and run the central validation loop with vv validate to begin the iterate-fix-revalidate process.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate code validation workflows across local edits, pre-commit hooks, and CI pipelines?

You can automate code validation workflows by running a centralized, cache-aware pipeline that manages the iterate-fix-revalidate loop, ensuring fast and deterministic feedback across local development, pre-commit, and CI environments.

What is the best way to speed up pre-commit validation loops and avoid redundant test runs?

The best way to speed up pre-commit validation loops is using deterministic git-tree hashing and caching, which skips unchanged files and provides clear YAML-based error extraction to fix issues faster.

How does deterministic git-tree hashing work for cache-friendly CI validation?

Deterministic git-tree hashing works for cache-friendly CI validation by computing hashes of the file tree state to cache validation results, ensuring only modified code triggers new checks while unchanged code reuses cached outputs.

Do I need a specific configuration file to run automated validation workflows?

Yes, you need a configured vibe-validate workflow file named vibe-validate.config.yaml to drive the cache-aware pipeline and execute commands like vv validate and vv pre-commit successfully.

Can I use YAML-based error extraction to parse and fix CI pipeline test failures?

Yes, you can use YAML-based error extraction to parse CI pipeline test failures, which centralizes error summaries from your validation runs so you can quickly identify, address, and revalidate code issues.

Why does my pre-commit validation loop fail to sync between local development and CI environments?

Your pre-commit validation loop might fail to sync due to inconsistent local and CI states, which you can resolve by running vv sync-check and vv state to enforce consistent results across both environments.
