Can I run specific validation checks individually?

Yes, the tool supports flags to run only syntax validation, best practices checks, or security scans independently depending on your needs.

Does it support multi-stage Azure Pipeline configurations?

Absolutely. It validates complex hierarchies including stages, jobs, steps, deployment strategies, and cross-stage dependencies.

Can it detect hardcoded secrets in my pipelines?

Yes, the security scanning layer specifically identifies hardcoded passwords, API keys, AWS credentials, and Azure tokens within your pipeline files.

Does this skill require manual installation of dependencies?

No, the skill features automatic venv management and will automatically install required packages like PyYAML and yamllint if they are not already available on your system.

How does this integrate with Claude Code?

Once the skill is active, you can simply ask Claude to 'validate my Azure Pipeline' or 'review my pipeline for security issues,' and it will trigger the validator automatically.
