doc-test-alignment (stub)

This skill is a stub. The real workflow is intentionally not yet implemented — the file exists so that steward verify can find it and so contributors who land here know it is on the roadmap, not forgotten.

How to run

scripts/check.sh is the entry point. Today it prints a not-yet-implemented notice and exits non-zero. When the workflow lands, the script will gate PR-readiness on the alignment contract below; until then, treat any green exit code from this script as a bug.

What it will check

The skill is the contract for four narrow alignments. README.md command examples must still execute against the current checkout and produce output that matches the surrounding prose. The "build/test/publish" command lines in CLAUDE.md must do the same. For each .claude/skills/<name>/, the SKILL.md description frontmatter must agree with what the scripts under scripts/ actually do — surfacing disagreements (e.g. SKILL.md claims the skill bumps versions but scripts/ has no bump script). And for each test, the test name should still describe the assertions the test makes — flagging drift where the name advertises a feature the assertions no longer touch.

Why it ships as a stub

Each of those four checks is independently non-trivial. Shipping a partial implementation would either silently pass when it shouldn't, or false-positive on intentional doc-vs-code differences. The right path is to land the checks one at a time, with their own tests, behind a steward verify --check doc-test-alignment flag. The parent verbs (verify, doctor) are named in the "Roadmap" section of CLAUDE.md; the broader sibling-pattern contract lives in docs/sibling-pattern.md.

What this stub guarantees today

• The skill directory exists, so steward verify's skills-convention check finds the standard layout (SKILL.md + scripts/ with an entry-point).
• scripts/check.sh is the entry-point script, satisfying the steward skills convention requirement that every skill ships an executable script.
• This SKILL.md is the contract for what the skill will do — when the implementation lands, it must satisfy this description or the description must move first.
