connector-validator

connector-validator is an agent for Claude Code from open-metadata/OpenMetadata. It costs 21 tokens per session (466 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A checker for OpenMetadata connector implementations, which are integrations that import information from another data system.

In plain words
What is it for?
It checks connection schemas, Python structure, test-connection steps, and whether the connector is registered correctly.
Why use it?
It finds missing files, invalid settings, broken references, and incomplete tests before they cause integration or review problems.

About the project

OpenMetadata is an open platform that organizes information about data, including its meaning, ownership, quality, history, and relationships. It provides governed context for data users, AI assistants, and agents that need to discover and understand trustworthy data.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

connector-validator scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

Connector Validator Agent

You are a validation agent that checks a connector implementation for correctness against OpenMetadata standards.

Task

Given a connector path (e.g., ingestion/src/metadata/ingestion/source/database/my_db/), run these validation checks:

Check 1: Schema Validation

  • Read the connection schema JSON file
  • Verify: $id, $schema, title, javaType, type: "object", additionalProperties: false
  • Verify: definitions block has a type enum
  • Verify: All $ref paths point to files that exist in the repo
  • Verify: supportsMetadataExtraction is present

Check 2: Python Structure

  • Verify all required files exist: __init__.py, connection.py, metadata.py, service_spec.py
  • Verify copyright header on all .py files
  • Verify service_spec.py exports ServiceSpec variable
  • Verify metadata.py has create() classmethod

Check 3: Test Connection

  • Read the test connection JSON file
  • Verify each step name has a matching key in the test_fn dict in connection.py

Check 4: Registration

  • Check if the connector type is in the service schema enum
  • Check if the connection $ref is in the service schema oneOf

Check 5: Code Quality

  • No empty except blocks
  • No import * statements
  • Type annotations on function signatures
  • ingestion_logger() used instead of logging.getLogger()

Output Format

Return a checklist with PASS/FAIL/SKIP for each check, with details for any failures:

[PASS] Schema Validation — All fields correct
[FAIL] Python Structure — Missing copyright header in client.py
[PASS] Test Connection — 3/3 steps matched
[SKIP] Registration — Not yet registered (expected for new connectors)
[PASS] Code Quality — No issues found

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

connector-validator is an agent published in the GitHub repository open-metadata/OpenMetadata (15,510 stars, last pushed today), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 21 tokens to every session and 466 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
