skill-validator

Ensure Claude Code skills meet quality standards through validation operations for structure, content, patterns, and production readiness. Task-based validation with pass/fail criteria, automated checks, and compliance reporting. Use when validating skills before deployment, ensuring standards compliance, certifying production readiness, or quality gating skill releases.

Quality

Content

52%Weight 40%Scale 1-5

Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.

The body is well-structured with a clear sequenced workflow and feedback loops, but it is heavily redundant — restating the same four validations in four formats — and leans on an unbundled external script for its only concrete command.

Suggestions

Collapse the Quick Reference table, Minimum Standards, and Deployment Decision Tree into a single condensed section to eliminate the fourfold restatement of the same operations.

Either bundle validate-structure.py or replace the dependency on review-multi/scripts with self-contained, executable validation steps the skill can run on its own.

Turn abstract manual checks ('Check for Overview section', 'Count examples') into concrete, runnable commands or grep patterns so the guidance is executable rather than descriptive.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

The same four operations are restated four times — detailed Operations section, Quick Reference table, Minimum Standards, and Deployment Decision Tree — with repeated ✅ checkmark bullets and Purpose/Process/Validation labels, making it noticeably padded.

2 / 5

Actionability

Provides one concrete command (`python3 review-multi/scripts/validate-structure.py <skill>`) and a report template, but that script is not bundled and most checks are abstract manual instructions ('Check for Overview section') rather than executable steps.

3 / 5

Workflow Clarity

The four operations are clearly sequenced with PASS/FAIL thresholds, an explicit 'Validate → Fix → Re-validate' feedback loop, and a deployment decision tree, though per-operation validation is stated abstractly rather than as concrete checkpoints.

4 / 5

Progressive Disclosure

No bundle files exist; the single SKILL.md is organized into clear sections (Overview, When to Use, Operations, Report Format, Best Practices, Quick Reference) with no nested references, though the repeated restatements add organizational bloat.

Description

88%Weight 40%Scale 1-5

Based on the skill's description, can an agent find and select it at the right time? Clear, specific descriptions lead to better discovery.

A strong description that concretely states capabilities and gives explicit trigger guidance for when to use the skill. The only weakness is minor overlap risk with adjacent skill-quality tools and a few missing trigger synonyms.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

Lists multiple concrete actions — 'validation operations for structure, content, patterns, and production readiness' plus 'pass/fail criteria, automated checks, and compliance reporting' — giving comprehensive coverage rather than vague language.

5 / 5

Completeness

Explicitly answers both what (validation operations for structure/content/patterns/production readiness) and when ('Use when validating skills before deployment, ensuring standards compliance, certifying production readiness, or quality gating skill releases') with concrete trigger phrases.

5 / 5

Trigger Term Quality

Includes natural phrases users would say ('validating skills before deployment', 'certifying production readiness', 'quality gating skill releases') but misses some common synonyms and variations, so coverage is good rather than comprehensive.

4 / 5

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

Occupies a clear pass/fail deployment-gating niche distinct from scoring-style review, but has minor overlap risk with closely related skill-quality skills like review-multi.
