validate-story-draft

Lean SDC skill. Task is source of truth — do not invent a parallel checklist.

Task SOT

Load and execute:

.aiox-core/development/tasks/validate-next-story.md

Fallback if project uses the dev-side validator:

.aiox-core/development/tasks/dev-validate-next-story.md

Input

• $ARGUMENTS[0] — story path (required; ask if missing)
• $ARGUMENTS[1] — yolo | interactive (default interactive)

Protocol

1. Read the task file fully; follow its pre-conditions, instructions, and exit criteria.
2. Adopt @po persona (or the story's quality-gate agent if specified and ≠ executor).
3. Run validation against the story template / 10-point (or task-defined) checklist.
4. Auto-fix only mechanical gaps the task allows; do not invent AC/scope.
5. On GO (including conditional GO after fixes): set story Status → Ready, append Change Log.
6. On NO-GO: leave Draft; list required fixes.

Post-phase verification

Must be true on disk before handing off:

• Story file updated (Ready on GO, or Draft + remediation on NO-GO)
• Change Log entry present
• No Status: Done written by this skill

Forbidden

• Setting Status: Done
• Product harvest trees or product-only local canon (see ARCH-A denylist)
• git push / PR (delegate @devops)
