# Quality Validation Skill
Systematic validation ensuring ResearchPacks and Implementation Plans meet quality standards before implementation.
## Auto-Invoke Triggers
- ResearchPack completion requires validation
- Implementation Plan requires validation before coding
- User requests quality check
- Proceeding to next workflow phase (quality gate)
## Quality Gates
### Gate 1: Research → Planning
- **Trigger**: ResearchPack completion
- **Pass**: Score ≥ 80
- **Fail**: Block, return defects
### Gate 2: Planning → Implementation
- **Trigger**: Implementation Plan completion
- **Pass**: Score ≥ 85 AND APIs match
- **Fail**: Block, return defects
### Gate 3: Implementation → Completion
- **Trigger**: Code complete
- - **Pass**: `npm run validate` passes
+ - **Pass**: your project's validate/lint/test command passes (e.g. `npm run validate`, `pytest`, `make check`, `cargo test`)
- **Fail**: Trigger self-correction (max 3 attempts)

- ## Frontend Validation Commands
-
- ```bash
- # TypeScript type checking
- npm run type-check
+ ## Validation Commands
- # ESLint validation
- npm run lint
+ Run your project's own validate/lint/type-check/test command at the completion
+ gate. The exact command depends on your stack — substitute the equivalents below.
- # Production build
- npm run build
+ | Step | Generic intent | Example (Node/TS) | Example (Python) |
+ |------|----------------|-------------------|------------------|
+ | Type check | Static type safety | `npm run type-check` | `mypy .` |
+ | Lint | Style / static analysis | `npm run lint` | `ruff check .` |
+ | Build | Compile / package | `npm run build` | `python -m build` |
+ | Tests | Behavioral verification | `npm test` | `pytest` |
+ | Full gate | One command runs all | `npm run validate` | `make check` |
- # Full validation
+ ```bash
+ # Example (Node/TypeScript): full validation
npm run validate
+
+ # Example (Python): full validation
+ pytest && ruff check . && mypy .
```
## Common Failures
| Failure | Description |
|---------|-------------|
| Hallucinated APIs | APIs not in official docs |
| Version mismatch | Wrong version in research |
| Missing citations | No source URLs |
| No rollback plan | Missing reversion procedure |
| Ambiguous steps | Non-actionable instructions |
| API misalignment | Plan uses undocumented APIs |
