validate

A command that checks whether the current session meets the project's quality requirements, including tests, linting, formatting, code coverage, Git state, and acceptance criteria.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it during development to run quality checks, or add --fix to correct auto-fixable lint and formatting issues.
Why use it?
It shows whether work is ready and can automatically repair supported linting or formatting problems without ending the session.

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

validate 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 yesterday.

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

Session Validate

Run the validation script to check quality standards:

sk validate

To automatically fix linting and formatting issues:

sk validate --fix

The validation checks:

  • Tests: All test suites pass
  • Linting: Code passes linting rules (auto-fixable with --fix)
  • Formatting: Code is properly formatted (auto-fixable with --fix)
  • Code Coverage: Meets minimum coverage threshold
  • Git Status: Working directory is clean or has expected changes
  • Acceptance Criteria: Work item requirements are met

Display the validation results to the user with a clear pass/fail status for each check. If linting or formatting fail, suggest using /validate --fix to automatically fix the issues. This command allows checking quality during development without ending the session.

Changes

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.
