podlite-verify

podlite-verify is a skill for Claude Code from podlite/podlite-skills. It costs 64 tokens per session (2,099 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A validator and linter for Podlite markup, a structured text format. It checks both the written structure and, when available, the output from a Podlite parser.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it after creating or editing .podlite or .pod6 files, or when a renderer or parser reports an error.
Why use it?
It catches malformed blocks, nesting mistakes, attribute syntax errors, and list-structure problems before the markup is delivered or committed.

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

podlite-verify 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 12d 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 — 116 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Podlite Verify

AI-generated markup drifts: unbalanced blocks, broken nesting, attribute values that swallow the next token. Podlite is structured, so most of these are mechanically checkable. Verify before delivering.

Run two layers: (1) self-check the output against the rules below (always available, no tooling), then (2) machine-validate with the parser/linter when it is available.

When to verify

  • Immediately after generating or editing any .podlite / .pod6 content, before presenting it
  • When the user asks to validate, lint, check, or fix Podlite
  • When a renderer or parser reports an error
  • Before committing Podlite to a repository or knowledge base

Layer 1: self-check rules (no tooling required)

Read the produced markup and confirm each invariant. These are the errors LLMs introduce most often.

# Check Wrong Right
1 Every =begin X has a matching =end X with the same typename =begin code … =end pod =begin code … =end code
2 Balanced block nesting: inner blocks close before outer =begin pod =begin code =end pod =begin pod =begin code =end code =end pod
3 No skipped list levels: an =item3 needs an =item2 earlier in the same block, and parsers warn otherwise =item1 → =item3 =item1 → =item2 → =item3
4 If several words must form one string, quote them: unquoted words in <…> make a list :caption<Q1 sales> :caption<'Q1 sales'> or :caption('Q1 sales')
5 No raw </> inside an unquoted :attr<…>: the parser ends the value at the first > :caption<See L<x|y>> :caption('See L<x|y>')
6 Formatting codes are balanced B<bold I<italic> B<bold I<italic>>
7 Content containing > uses doubled delimiters C<$x > 5> C<< $x > 5 >> or C« $x > 5 »
8 Blank line separates paragraphs / terminates =for and abbreviated blocks two paragraphs glued blank line between
9 A =begin pod … =end pod root is optional: the specification wraps a .podlite file in one implicitly requiring a root with or without a root
10 Indentation is intentional: indented text inside =pod/=item/=nested becomes an implicit code block accidental 4-space indent flush-left prose
11 Block casing matches role: lowercase standard (=head1), UPPERCASE semantic (=TITLE), MixedCase custom (=Mermaid) =mermaid, =title, =Image =Mermaid, =TITLE, =picture
12 =end lines carry no attributes: attributes belong on =begin only =end code :lang<js> =end code
13 Markdown-fence attributes follow the language id ```:line-numbers python ```python :line-numbers
14 A continued attribute line starts with = and a space: an indented one is content, and its attributes are lost =begin pod :type<x>⏎ :id<y> =begin pod :type<x>⏎= :id<y>
15 A list value separates on spaces, not commas: a comma stays inside the value :columns<a,b,c> is one name :columns<a b c> or :columns('a','b','c')
16 =set applies to the next block only: it needs a block after it in the same scope =set at end of document =set :caption('X') followed by the block
17 G<> conceals, it does not delete: guarded text stays in the source and reaches anyone who reads the file secrets inside G<> secrets outside the document
18 :mime-type carries its parameters: CSV and TSV need the header state :mime-type<text/csv> :mime-type<'text/csv; header=present'>

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.
