Validation Contract
uv run python skills/skill-lifecycle-manager/scripts/check.py
Critical Rules
- Never auto-promote a skill based on lifecycle heuristics alone.
- Treat missing evals as a draft signal, not a hard block for internal skills.
- Do not mutate
metadata.internalor catalog authoring rows from this skill. - Run the repo validation command before declaring a skill active-ready.
- Route executable fixes to skill-creator or the maintainer lead.
