Validates a registry component against REGISTRY_RULES.md. Returns a pass/fail report with actionable fixes.
Steps
1 — Resolve namespace and component name
Read NEXT_PUBLIC_REGISTRY_NAMESPACE from .env or .env.local. If not found, ask the user.
The component directory is: registry/{namespace}/blocks/{name}/
2 — Run all checks
Check each rule. Mark each as PASS, WARN, or FAIL.
File existence (FAIL if missing):
registry/{namespace}/blocks/{name}/{name}.tsxregistry/{namespace}/blocks/{name}/example.tsxregistry/{namespace}/blocks/{name}/registry-item.json
File existence (WARN if missing):
content/components/{name}.mdx
registry-item.json checks (FAIL):
name field matches {name} exactlytype is "registry:component"title is non-emptydescription is non-emptydependencies is an array (can be empty)files array has at least one entry- Every file in
files[].path exists on disk
- Every file in
files has path, type, and target populated
{name}.tsx checks (FAIL):
- Grep for
export function {PascalName} or export const {PascalName}
- Grep for
export type {PascalName}Props
example.tsx checks (FAIL):
- Must NOT import from
@/registry/... — must use target path (@/components/{namespace}/{name})
3 — Report
Print a table:
✅ PASS {name}.tsx — exports HelloWorld
✅ PASS {name}.tsx — exports HelloWorldProps
✅ PASS registry-item.json — all required fields present
✅ PASS example.tsx — no @/registry/ imports
⚠️ WARN content/components/hello-world.mdx — not found (will be created on push)
If any FAIL: list each with the exact fix needed. Do not proceed to push.
If only WARNs: ask user if they want to continue.
If all PASS: print "✅ Component is registry-ready."
Rules
- Never auto-fix — report only, let the user or create-component fix
- WARN does not block push, FAIL does
