Skills Validator
When to Use
This is Step 3 of the refactoring workflow:
- analyze → Identifies issues
- extract → Performs refactoring
- validate ← You are here
Prerequisite: Refactoring completed by skills-extractor.
Workflow
Step 1: Reference Check
Verify all references exist and YAML frontmatter is intact.
Checklist: references/checklist.md
Step 2: Content Check
Compare before/after to ensure triggers, actions, and output format unchanged.
Step 3: Generate Test Prompts
Create test prompts from each skill's description to verify activation.
Output
# Validation Report
## Reference Check
- [x] skill-a: All references valid
- [ ] skill-b: Missing `shared/example.md`
## Test Prompts
- "[trigger phrase]" → Should activate [skill-name]
## Issues Found
- [List any problems]
Next Step
If issues found → Fix and re-run validation
If all pass → Refactoring complete
