How does the validation process work?

The skill runs automated scripts to check for naming conventions, required metadata like author objects, and proper semver formatting before a plugin is published.

What files are required for a valid Puerto plugin?

A valid plugin must contain a .claude-plugin directory with a plugin.json file and a README.md file at the root level.

What is the 'skills-first' principle in Puerto?

It is a mandatory architectural pattern where agents must read specific skill documents before proceeding with a task, ensuring domain-specific best practices are followed.

Does this skill help with Claude Code API costs?

Yes, the 'Tune' operation analyzes your agents and suggests cost-effective model selections, such as using Haiku for CRUD tasks and Sonnet for analysis.

Can I use this to update existing plugins?

Yes, the 'Modify' operation allows you to select specific components like agents or skills and update them while maintaining the existing architectural integrity.
