Invalid Subject

Negative fixture for the gate-conformance suite: valid v8 frontmatter except `subject` is set to a value outside the closed twelve-shelf enum. Activate only inside test-gate-conformance.js to prove the structural lint gate FAILS on an out-of-enum subject. Do NOT use as a production skill.

Invalid Subject (negative fixture)

This fixture is intentionally invalid: subject is not one of the twelve closed competency shelves. The structural lint gate MUST reject it.

Concept of the skill

What it is: A deliberately broken capability skill used only by the conformance runner. Mental model: Break exactly one rule so the lint error isolates that one rule. Why it exists: To give the "subject must be in the closed enum" rule a failing example. What it is NOT: It is not a production skill and never routes outside the test runner. Adjacent concepts: the other negative fixtures under this directory. One-line analogy: It is a unit test's fixture, not a real skill. Common misconception: That a negative fixture should also be lint-clean — it must not be.

Coverage

Valid v8 frontmatter except an out-of-enum subject.

Philosophy of the skill

One broken field per fixture keeps the failing assertion unambiguous.

Verification

Exercised by the gate-conformance runner; expected to fail structural lint with a subject error.

Do NOT Use When

  • Always. This is a test fixture, not a usable skill.
