validation SKILL.md skillA

validation from josstei/maestro-orchestrate is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add josstei/maestro-orchestrate/validation@git:20260410.21088cd

Pins git:20260410.21088cd in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Cross-cutting validation methodology for verifying phase outputs and project integrity.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Validation Skill

Activate this skill when validating phase outputs during orchestration execution or when running standalone validation checks. This skill provides the pipeline, heuristics, and interpretation rules for verifying that changes meet quality standards.

## Validation Pipeline

Execute validation steps in this order. Stop on the first blocking failure unless the user explicitly requests continuing.

### Step 1: Build / Compile
Verify the project compiles without errors.

| Project Type | Command |
|-------------|---------|
| Node.js (TypeScript) | `npx tsc --noEmit` |
| Node.js (JavaScript) | N/A (skip) |
| Rust | `cargo build` |
| Go | `go build ./...` |
| Python | `python -m py_compile [files]` |
| Java (Maven) | `mvn compile` |
| Java (Gradle) | `./gradlew compileJava` |

### Step 2: Lint / Format
Verify code meets style and quality standards.

| Project Type | Command |
|-------------|---------|
| Node.js | `npx eslint . && npx prettier --check .` |
| Rust | `cargo clippy && cargo fmt --check` |
| Go | `go vet ./... && gofmt -l .` |
| Python | `ruff check . && ruff format --check .` |
| Java | `mvn checkstyle:check` or `./gradlew checkstyleMain` |

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add josstei/maestro-orchestrate/validation@sha256:ad32eb24b6558eec

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260410.21088cd, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
