Skill Spec Validator

Skill: Spec Validator

[!IMPORTANT] TIER 2 (High Integrity): This skill acts as a mechanical gatekeeper for the /vdd-enhanced workflow.

1. Purpose

To strictly enforce "Requirements Hardening" by mechanically verifying that:

1. TASK.md contains a Requirements Traceability Matrix (RTM).
2. PLAN.md explicitly covers every item in the RTM using Atomic Checklists.

2. Usage

Mode A: TASK Validation

Trigger: After Analysis Phase. Command:

python3 scripts/validate.py --mode task /absolute/path/to/docs/TASK.md

Checks:

• Presence of table ## Requirements Traceability.
• Columns ID, Requirement.

Mode B: PLAN Validation

Trigger: After Planning Phase. Command:

python3 scripts/validate.py --mode plan /absolute/path/to/docs/PLAN.md /absolute/path/to/docs/TASK.md

Checks:

• Every ID in TASK matches a [ID] tag in PLAN.

3. Failure Handling

• Exit Code 1: Issues found. Orchestrator should trigger a Correction Loop (instruct Analyst/Planner to fix).
• Bypass: If validation is buggy, add [BYPASS_VALIDATION] to the Title of text in TASK.md.

4. Dependencies

• Python 3
• validate.py (in scripts/)
