What is the primary purpose of the AAP MCP Validator?

It ensures your Claude Code environment is correctly connected to the Ansible Automation Platform before you attempt complex job management or inventory tasks, preventing failed executions due to configuration errors.

Should I use this skill to create job templates?

No, this skill is strictly for validation and troubleshooting. For creating templates, you should use the job-template-creator skill.

Which specific AAP tools does this skill test?

The skill validates connectivity by calling job_templates_list from the job-management server and inventories_list from the inventory-management server.

Does this skill require specific environment variables?

Yes, it relies on AAP_MCP_SERVER and AAP_API_TOKEN being correctly configured in your environment to communicate with the AAP gateway.

What common errors can this skill detect?

It identifies expired or invalid API tokens (401), insufficient RBAC permissions (403), incorrect gateway URLs (404), and general network timeouts or SSL certificate issues.
