What architecture patterns does it validate?

It includes specific validation logic for Workflow skills (sequential steps), Task skills (independent operations), and Reference skills (topic-based organization).

What defines a 'Pass' for production readiness?

A skill passes when it meets all structural YAML requirements, contains at least three examples and scenarios, follows its designated pattern, and lacks critical anti-patterns.

Can I use this for automated testing?

Yes, skill-validator is designed for continuous integration, allowing you to automatically validate skills in build or deploy pipelines to ensure they meet minimum standards.

What is the difference between skill-validator and review-multi?

While review-multi provides a nuanced 1-5 score and broad improvement suggestions, skill-validator acts as a binary quality gate, focusing on pass/fail criteria necessary for production deployment.

How long does a validation check take?

Automated structural checks take 5-10 minutes, while a comprehensive production readiness review typically takes 30-45 minutes including manual content verification.

部署与 DevOps

Validates Claude Code skills against strict quality standards to ensure production readiness and architectural consistency.

关于

Skill Validator serves as a rigorous quality gate for Claude Code skill development, providing a binary pass/fail assessment rather than a subjective score. It systematically evaluates skill structure including YAML frontmatter and file naming, content completeness such as scenarios and examples, and architectural pattern compliance for Workflow, Task, or Reference patterns. By enforcing a minimum quality bar, it ensures that every skill released into an ecosystem is functional, well-documented, and follows established best practices for AI-assisted coding, making it essential for teams maintaining high-standard skill repositories.

主要功能

Production Readiness Gate: Provides a definitive 'Deploy' or 'Hold' decision based on cumulative validation results.
0 GitHub stars
Structure & YAML Validation: Automates checks for kebab-case naming, mandatory frontmatter, and file conventions.
Pattern Compliance: Validates architecture against specific Workflow, Task, or Reference implementation standards.
Content Completeness Audit: Verifies the presence of essential sections including overview, triggers, and concrete examples.
Automated Compliance Reporting: Generates standardized reports detailing specific failures and required remediation steps.

使用场景

Automating validation within CI/CD pipelines for Claude Code skill repositories.
Pre-deployment quality gating for internal or community skill releases.
Ensuring ecosystem consistency after major updates or refactoring of existing skills.
