# skill-md-validator

Validate your skill.md files before publishing.

## Install

```bash
npm install -g skill-md-validator
```

## Usage

```bash
# Local file
skill-validate ./skill.md

# Remote URL
skill-validate https://example.com/skill.md

# Strict mode (warnings become errors)
skill-validate --strict ./skill.md

# JSON output
skill-validate --json ./skill.md
```

## Why

skill.md files are how agents discover and understand capabilities. A malformed file means agents can't find you or misunderstand what you offer. Validate before you ship.
