rules-validating-governance

rules-validating-governance is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from wahidyankf/ose-public. It costs 69 tokens per session (677 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A repository-wide method for checking whether governance rules and software documentation are consistent. It reviews naming, links, duplication, wording limits, traceability, licensing, dependency policies, and documentation structure.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to validate agents, skills, repository rules, Gherkin journeys, software-engineering documentation, diagrams, indexes, and dependency or licensing guidance.
Why use it?
It finds conflicting or repeated rules, broken references, missing coverage, and documentation that does not agree across governance layers.

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

rules-validating-governance 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 2d 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.

Validating Repository Governance Rules

Methodology for rules-checker, which validates repository-wide consistency across all governance layers, agent/Skill duplication, and software-engineering documentation.

Reference Modules

  1. core-validation-and-agent-duplication.md and skills-duplication-and-report-formats.md — Core Repository Validation (naming, linking, emoji, No-Last-Updated), Agent-to-Agent Duplication, Agent-Skill Duplication, Skill-to-Skill Consolidation, Skills Coverage Gaps, and the finding report formats.
  2. word-budget-and-rules-governance-core.md and rules-governance-licensing-and-dependency-policy.md — governance word-budget delegation, contradictions/inaccuracies/inconsistencies, traceability, layer coherence, licensing compliance, dependency-bump policy compliance, Gherkin Gherkin journey coherence.
  3. software-docs-validation-8-1-to-8-4.md and software-docs-validation-8-5-to-8-8.md — the eight docs/explanation/software-engineering/ sub-checks (principle alignment, cross-references, naming, structure, templates, diagrams, README index, version docs).
  4. preflight-consumption.md and execution-sequence-and-report-structure.md — consuming the deterministic ./rhino governance traceability validate preflight JSON, the execution step sequence, and the final two-section report structure.

Core Principles

Deterministic boundary: in rules-quality-gate, every property the gate's Deterministic Boundary lists is left to its declared tool. Retained layer-coherence and traceability checks remain domain findings. Progressive writing: every finding is written immediately, never buffered — Step 8 (~265 files) is the step most likely to be interrupted by compaction. Conservative consolidation: when uncertain whether Skills should merge, recommend KEEP SEPARATE.

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.
