How does it determine if my timeout is correct?

The skill counts the files in your project (excluding ignored directories like node_modules) and recommends a timeout duration—ranging from 600s to 1200s—based on the scale of the codebase.

What exactly does the validate skill check?

It runs the official Maximus CLI validation and then performs additional checks on your timeout settings, context files, escalation status, git commit style, and provider configurations.

When is the best time to use Arc Validate?

You should use it whenever you set up a new Maximus project, change your agent provider, or before running a major batch of automated tasks.

Will this skill automatically change my configuration files?

No, it is read-only by default. It will report issues and provide advisories, but it will only apply fixes if you explicitly give it permission to do so.

개발자 도구

Validates Maximus Loop project configurations by running deterministic CLI checks and providing heuristic project-aware advisories.

Maximus Configuration Validator (Arc Validate) ensures your Maximus Loop projects are correctly configured before you run the engine. It automates the verification process by combining deterministic CLI validation with intelligent advisories that analyze project size, git history, and task complexity. By proactively checking for timeout mismatches, missing context files, and provider configuration errors, it helps developers avoid runtime failures and optimizes the performance of agent-led development tasks.
