Lint and Validate Skill

SkillMonitoring & ops

Makes your agent run linting and validation checks on code changes so errors are caught before finishing.

Available today. Use it from your connected AI after setup.

Connect ahel once, and every AI you use reads what you have installed.

Then ask your AI: use the Lint and Validate Skill skill

About this capability

Automatic quality control, linting, and static analysis procedures. Use after every code modification to ensure syntax correctness and project standards. Triggers onKeywords: lint, format, check, validate, types, static analysis.

What this skill tells your AI

The instructions your AI receives, as published by asymmetric-al/core in .agents/skills/lint-and-validate/SKILL.md and read by ahel’s review.

MANDATORY: Run appropriate validation tools after EVERY code change. Do not finish a task until the code is error-free.

Procedures by Ecosystem

Node.js / TypeScript
  1. Lint/Fix: npm run lint or npx eslint "path" --fix
  2. Types: npx tsc --noEmit
  3. Security: npm audit --audit-level=high
Python
  1. Linter (Ruff): ruff check "path" --fix (Fast & Modern)
  2. Security (Bandit): bandit -r "path" -ll
  3. Types (MyPy): mypy "path"

The Quality Loop

  1. Write/Edit Code
  2. Run Audit: npm run lint && npx tsc --noEmit
  3. Analyze Report: Check the "FINAL AUDIT REPORT" section.
  4. Fix & Repeat: Submitting code with "FINAL AUDIT" failures is NOT allowed.

Error Handling

  • If lint fails: Fix the style or syntax issues immediately.
  • If tsc fails: Correct type mismatches before proceeding.
  • If no tool is configured: Check the project root for .eslintrc, tsconfig.json, pyproject.toml and suggest creating one.

Strict Rule: No code should be committed or reported as "done" without passing these checks.
