SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Skill conformance ensures every Skill directory includes a valid SKILL.md frontmatter with a name and description, and automates checks for structural integrity across the catalog.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Frontmatter validation ensures name and description exist in SKILL.md for every Skill.
  • Section presence checks (Contract, Anti-Patterns, Output Format) guarantee conformance to the standard.
  • Cross-repo validation including manifest and resolver references to maintain catalog integrity.
  • Automates detection of MECE violations and missing references to improve reliability.

Quick Start

Run the validation toolkit against your skills directory to generate a conformance report

What sections are required for skill catalog conformance verification?▼

Skill catalog conformance verification requires the Contract, Anti-Patterns, and Output Format sections in every SKILL.md. Presence checks guarantee skills meet the standard structural requirements.

How do I detect missing manifest and resolver references in a skill directory?▼

Cross-repo validation detects missing manifest and resolver references by checking cross-references in your skill directory. This maintains catalog integrity and improves reliability during repository audits.

Can I automate skill validation during onboarding of new skills?▼

Yes, you can automate skill validation during onboarding by running the validation toolkit against your skills directory. It generates a conformance report validating frontmatter and required sections.

What is the best way to check for MECE violations in a skill catalog?▼

The best way to check for MECE violations is running automated conformance checks across the skill catalog. This detects structural overlaps and missing references to improve overall reliability.
