doc-validate

doc-validate is a skill for Claude Code from opendatahub-io/ai-helpers. It costs 56 tokens per session (1,257 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A validator for AsciiDoc technical documentation. AsciiDoc is a plain-text format used to write documents that can be converted into published pages.

In plain words
What is it for?
It validates AsciiDoc files with Vale, Asciidoctor, link checking, YAML syntax checks, and cross-reference review, then writes findings to a JSON file.
Why use it?
It checks documentation for writing, build, link, YAML, and cross-reference problems before publication.

    Skill selects an external model or provider that may use a different account or billing plan than the operator expects. Undisclosed model switches can cause unexpected cost or quota consumption.
    Fix: Remove the model/provider override or disclose it prominently and require explicit operator approval before invoking an external coding CLI or billed model.

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

doc-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 11d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 4 executable files (scripts/asciidoc-conventions.sh, scripts/load-env.sh, scripts/parse-product-config.py, …), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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 — 146 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

doc-validate

Validate AsciiDoc documentation files for technical accuracy, style compliance, and structural correctness.

Parse arguments

$ARGUMENTS contains:

  1. Target: file path, directory, or glob pattern for AsciiDoc files to validate
  2. --context (optional): path to context package for cross-reference validation (defaults to workspace/context-package.json)

Step 1: Discover files

Resolve the target argument to a list of .adoc files:

  • If a single file: validate that file
  • If a directory: glob for **/*.adoc
  • If a glob pattern: expand it

Step 2: Run deterministic validators

Execute the validation script on all discovered files:

python3 "${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/validate-artifacts.py" "${file1}" "${file2}" ...

This runs:

  • Vale: prose style compliance
  • Asciidoctor: compilation check (can the file be built?)
  • Lychee: link checking (are URLs valid?)
  • YAML syntax: validate embedded YAML code blocks

Collect all findings from the script output.

Step 3: Extract embedded artifacts

For each AsciiDoc file, extract embedded technical artifacts:

  1. YAML blocks: Content within [source,yaml] delimiters
  2. CLI commands: Content within [source,bash] or [source,terminal] delimiters
  3. Configuration references: Attribute references like {attribute-name}
  4. API paths: URLs or paths in the format /api/v1/...
  5. CRD references: Kubernetes resource kinds and API versions

Step 4: Cross-reference validation (LLM)

If a context package is available, use LLM judgment to cross-reference extracted artifacts against the gathered context:

For each extracted artifact:

  • YAML blocks: Compare against CRD schemas and config examples in context
  • CLI commands: Verify flags and options against --help output or source code in context
  • API paths: Check against API specs or route definitions in context
  • CRD references: Verify kind names, API versions, and field names against type definitions

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.
