.agents/skills/validation/SKILL.md

validation is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from loocor/mcpmate. It costs 57 tokens per session (294 once invoked), scanned A, original, AGPL-3.0.

A verification procedure for MCPMate development work. It covers checking code and behavior through tests, linting, builds, an Inspector tool, and release-slice reviews.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it after implementation, bug fixes, reviews, or release preparation to validate backend, frontend, desktop, and MCP behavior.
Why use it?
It catches regressions and integration problems before a change is reported as complete or prepared for review.

Which agent this was written for is unclear — body not stored (licence); the path alone says nothing. Also seen: installed under .agents/ (shared by several agents).

This is loocor/mcpmate's own configuration. It tells Claude Code and Codex how to work on mcpmate 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 mcpmate 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

validation scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 2mo 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.

Makes network callslowCapability

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

5. Use routed HTTP tooling instead of raw `curl` or `wget`.

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.
