SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

verify-bootstrap identifies coherence issues in a groundrules-bootstrapped project before a release or significant edits, ensuring consistency across version signatures, placeholder content, and file integrity.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Consistency Checks: Verifies file versioning, identifies placeholder placeholders, ensures appropriate file structure, and checks Git initialization.
  • Coherence Assessment: Performs comprehensive checks for any signs of corruption or deviation from expected standards.
  • Fix Mode: Supports the --fix option for applying auto-corrections like version signature updates, without modifying the .groundrules.json state file.
  • Use Case: Before deploying a release candidate, run verify-bootstrap to confirm everything is in order for a smooth transition to production.

Quick Start

Use the verify-bootstrap skill to check the coherence of your groundrules-bootstrapped project: run /groundrules:verify-bootstrap

FAQPage Schema
How do I check the version consistency of a groundrules-bootstrapped project?▼

You can check version consistency by running the verify-bootstrap skill, which analyzes project bootstrapping details, file content, and structural coherence to identify any deviations from expected standards before a release.

What is the best way to verify file integrity and placeholder content in my project before deployment?▼

The best way to verify file integrity and identify placeholder content is to run a coherence assessment using verify-bootstrap, ensuring everything is in order for a smooth transition to production.

Can I automatically fix version signature issues during a project consistency check?▼

Yes, you can use the --fix option with verify-bootstrap to apply auto-corrections like version signature updates, without modifying the .groundrules.json state file.

Do I need a .groundrules.json file to run a project health and consistency check?▼

Yes, verify-bootstrap requires the .groundrules.json file and a bootstrapped project structure to perform comprehensive checks for corruption, file versioning, and Git initialization.

Why does my groundrules-bootstrapped project fail coherence checks before a release?▼

Coherence checks fail when verify-bootstrap detects issues like mismatched version signatures, leftover placeholder content, or structural deviations from expected bootstrapping standards.

When should I run a project consistency check on a bootstrapped repository?▼

You should run verify-bootstrap before a release or significant edits to confirm file versioning, structural coherence, and Git initialization are intact for a smooth production transition.
