Validates SKILL.md, *.test.md, and references/README.md existence. Refs: #388 Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Validates name and description fields, ensures name matches directory. Refs: #388
Validates Overview, When to Use, and Core Workflow sections exist. Note: Some skills don't currently meet this standard. Refs: #388
Validates all skills have required files, frontmatter, and sections. Refs: #388 Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Until existing skills are updated to comply with SKILL-FORMAT.md, the validation job should not block PRs. Refs: #388

LGTM - Validation script correctly identifies non-compliant skills. CI job is appropriately non-blocking until skills are updated.

Summary
Implements the structure validation automation recommended in the retrospective.
scripts/validate-skill-structure.cjsto validate skill structurenpm run validate:skillsscriptWhat the validation checks
Current state
The validation finds 45 compliance issues across 28 skills that don't have the required sections. This is expected - the validation is working correctly and identifies skills that don't follow SKILL-FORMAT.md.
The CI job is marked as
continue-on-error: truetemporarily so PRs can still merge. A follow-up issue should be created to update the non-compliant skills.Issues
Test Plan
npm run validate:skillsruns and validates all 55 skills (evidence)npm run lintpasses (evidence)Verification
