Conductor-Beads: Command for Claude Code

.claude/skills/conductor/references/commands/validate.md

validate is a command for Claude Code from NguyenSiTrung/Conductor-Beads. It costs 0 tokens per session (671 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of conductor-validate, Apache-2.0.

A command that checks whether a Conductor project’s planning files, track folders, metadata, task statuses, and execution annotations agree with each other.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to audit the structure and consistency of a Conductor project before continuing work or handing it to another developer.
Why use it?
It finds missing files, orphaned tracks, mismatched statuses, invalid task markers, incomplete plans, and conflicts in parallel-work instructions.

Command for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: installed under .claude/.

This is NguyenSiTrung/Conductor-Beads's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on Conductor-Beads itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything Conductor-Beads configures →

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 4d 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.

Origin

This is a copy

92% identical to conductor-validate — 4 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

Conductor Validate

Validate the integrity of this Conductor project.

1. Core Files Check

Verify these files exist in conductor/:

  • product.md
  • tech-stack.md
  • workflow.md
  • tracks.md

2. Tracks Consistency

For each track in tracks.md:

  • Verify directory exists: conductor/tracks/<track_id>/
  • Verify files: metadata.json, spec.md, plan.md
  • Validate metadata.json has: track_id, type, status, created_at

3. Orphan Detection

  • List all directories in conductor/tracks/
  • Report any not referenced in tracks.md

4. Status Consistency

  • Compare status markers in tracks.md with metadata.json status field
  • Report mismatches

5. Plan Integrity

For each plan.md:

  • Must have at least one phase and task
  • Valid markers only: [ ], [~], [x], [!]
  • Completed tracks should have all tasks completed
  • Validate parallel execution annotations if present

5a. Parallel Execution Validation

For tracks with parallel execution annotations:

  • Check <!-- execution: parallel --> is after valid phase heading
  • Verify all tasks in parallel phases have <!-- files: ... --> annotation
  • Detect file conflicts (same file in multiple tasks)
  • Verify <!-- depends: ... --> references valid task IDs
  • If parallel_state.json exists, check for stale/orphan workers

6. Report

Present summary with:

  • ✅ Valid items
  • ⚠️ Warnings
  • ❌ Errors
  • Recommendations for fixes

7. Auto-Fix Option

Offer to fix auto-fixable issues:

  • Missing metadata fields
  • Status mismatches
  • Orphan cleanup

8. BEADS VALIDATION

PROTOCOL: Include Beads consistency checks.

  1. Check for Beads CLI:

    • Run which bd
    • If NOT found:

      "⚠️ Beads CLI (bd) is not installed. Beads provides persistent task memory across sessions." "A) Continue validation without Beads checks" "B) Stop - I'll install Beads first"

      • If A: Skip this section
      • If B: HALT and wait for user
  2. Verify Beads Integration:

    • Task status sync between Beads and plan.md
    • No orphan epics/tasks
    • Epic links valid in metadata.json
    • If any bd command fails:

      "⚠️ Beads command failed: " "A) Continue validation without Beads checks" "B) Retry the failed command" "C) Stop - I'll fix the issue first"

      • If A: Skip remaining Beads steps
      • If B: Retry the command
      • If C: HALT and wait for user

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.
