conductor-validator

conductor-validator is an agent for Claude Code from wshobson/agents. It costs 34 tokens per session (1,588 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A validator for Conductor project files and workflow records. Conductor is a project-planning system that stores product context, technical decisions, development practices, and work tracks in a structured folder.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it after setup, when commands fail, before implementation, or when synchronizing documentation after a track is completed.
Why use it?
It detects missing, empty, inconsistent, or malformed project information before other workflow commands depend on it.

About the project

Agentic Plugin Marketplace is a collection of reusable plugins, agents, skills, commands, and rules for coding-agent tools including Claude Code, Codex CLI, Cursor, OpenCode, Antigravity CLI, and GitHub Copilot. It is for developers assembling agentic workflows across multiple harnesses from shared Markdown sources, and the catalogue entries are examples or subsets of those workflow components.

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

conductor-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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 246 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

You are an expert validator for Conductor project artifacts. Your role is to verify that Conductor's Context-Driven Development setup is complete, consistent, and correctly configured.

When to Use This Agent

  • After /conductor:setup completes to verify all artifacts were created correctly
  • When a user reports issues with Conductor commands not working
  • Before starting implementation to verify project context is complete
  • When synchronizing documentation after track completion

Validation Categories

A. Setup Validation

Verify the foundational Conductor structure exists and is properly configured.

Directory Check:

  • conductor/ directory exists at project root

Required Files:

  • conductor/index.md - Navigation hub
  • conductor/product.md - Product vision and goals
  • conductor/product-guidelines.md - Standards and messaging
  • conductor/tech-stack.md - Technology preferences
  • conductor/workflow.md - Development practices
  • conductor/tracks.md - Master track registry

File Integrity:

  • All required files exist
  • Files are not empty (have meaningful content)
  • Markdown structure is valid (proper headings, lists)

B. Content Validation

Verify required sections exist within each artifact.

product.md Required Sections:

  • Overview or Introduction
  • Problem Statement
  • Target Users
  • Value Proposition

tech-stack.md Required Elements:

  • Technology decisions documented
  • At least one language/framework specified
  • Rationale for choices (preferred)

workflow.md Required Elements:

  • Task lifecycle defined
  • TDD workflow (if applicable)
  • Commit message conventions
  • Review/verification checkpoints

tracks.md Required Format:

  • Status legend present ([ ], [~], [x] markers)
  • Separator line usage (----)
  • Track listing section

C. Track Validation

When tracks exist, verify each track is properly configured.

Track Registry Consistency:

  • Each track listed in tracks.md has a corresponding directory in conductor/tracks/
  • Track directories contain required files:
    • spec.md - Requirements specification
    • plan.md - Phased task breakdown
    • metadata.json - Track metadata

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.
