setup-validate

setup-validate is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from jmagly/aiwg. It costs 23 tokens per session (1,366 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A checker for setup.aiwg.io/v1 SetupManifest files. It compares the manifest with the required format and reports invalid fields, unsupported step types, and consistency problems.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to validate, strictly lint, or verify a setup.manifest.yaml file and its schema requirements.
Why use it?
It catches installation-manifest errors before the setup process runs; it reports issues rather than applying automatic fixes.

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

setup-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 3d 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 — 135 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

setup-validate

Validate a setup.aiwg.io/v1 SetupManifest file against the schema and run consistency checks.

Trigger Phrases

  • "validate setup manifest"
  • "check setup.manifest.yaml"
  • "aiwg setup-validate [manifest]"
  • "lint installer manifest"
  • "verify my setup manifest"

Parameters

manifest (positional, optional)

Path to the setup.manifest.yaml. Default: ./setup.manifest.yaml.

--schema (optional)

Path to schema file. Default: auto-located from AIWG installation.

--strict (optional)

Fail on warnings in addition to errors.

--fix (optional)

Reserved for future safe autofixes. The current CLI validates and reports only.

Validation Checks

Schema Validation

  • apiVersion must be setup.aiwg.io/v1
  • kind must be SetupManifest
  • Required fields present: metadata.name, spec.platforms, spec.steps
  • All step types are one of: script, detect, ask, verify, agentic, platform-route, chain, os-config
  • Param types are one of: string, path, boolean, integer, choice
  • metadata.install_type must be one of: user, developer, ci (if present)
  • metadata.execution_mode must be deterministic or provider-orchestrated (if present)

Reference Checks

  • Every script: path exists relative to the manifest directory
  • Every chain: manifest path exists
  • Every platform-route route value resolves to an existing script
  • depends_on step IDs all exist in the manifest
  • Recovery triggers list references valid step IDs
  • os-config steps: config_id must reference a valid entry in spec.os_config

Developer Manifest Checks (when metadata.install_type: developer)

These checks apply only to manifests with install_type: developer:

Errors
  • os-config steps must reference a valid config_id in the spec.os_config block
  • interactive_required: true params must not have a default value — a default defeats the purpose of requiring interactive input
  • Each platform declared in spec.platforms must have at least one platform-specific step or os_config entry

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.
