aem-verify

Platform note: This skill uses context: fork + agent: aem-inspector for isolated execution. If subagent dispatch is unavailable (e.g., VS Code Chat), you may run inline but AEM MCP tools (AEM/*, playwright/*) must be available. If they are not, inform the user: "AEM verification requires AEM and Playwright MCP servers. Please use Claude Code or Copilot CLI."

Applicability Check (Cross-Repo Dependencies)

Before running, determine if AEM verification is meaningful from the current repo alone.

Read .ai/config.yaml for repos section. If the project uses multiple repos (e.g., separate BE and FE):

Backend-only repos:

• CAN verify: dialog changes, HTL template changes, model/exporter JSON data, component definitions
• CANNOT verify: visual rendering that depends on FE code from another repo
• Skip if changes require FE code from a separate frontend repo

Frontend-only repos:

• CAN verify: FE-only changes where the BE is already deployed to AEM (styling, JS behavior, FE rendering)
• CANNOT verify: changes that depend on new BE code not yet deployed
• Skip if changes require BE code from a separate backend repo not yet deployed to AEM

How to determine: Check .ai/specs/*-*/explain.md or .ai/specs/*-*/research.md for "Repos Required" or "Cross-Repo Scope". If the other repo's changes are a prerequisite, skip.
