config-consistency-checkerAutomatically analyzes configuration files to detect inconsistencies, conflicts, missing keys, and divergent values across environments, versions, or modules.
Config Consistency Checker is an agent skill from ArabelaTso/Skills-4-SE. Automatically analyzes configuration files to detect inconsistencies, conflicts, missing keys, and divergent values across environments, versions, or modules. Use when managing multi-environment configurations, detecting config drift, validating configuration changes, or ensuring consistency across microservices. Supports JSON, YAML, TOML, INI, XML, .env, and properties files. Identifies security issues like hardcoded secrets and provides actionable resolution guidance.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.2k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
It sits in Backend & APIs, covering Microservices and Secrets management. The repository describes itself as: A curated list of 180+ useful Claude Skills for Software Engineering and resources for customizing AI for SE workflows. The licence is Apache-2.0.
5 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 4f38503. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are json and yaml).
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Names these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:
DATABASE_PASSWORDAPI_KEYDB_PASSWORDFrom names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Config Consistency Checker loads about 1.2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 125 tokens; SKILL.md has 329 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
The automated check noted patterns worth knowing about, such as sudo or a known installer.

================================
Files Analyzed:
- dev.json
- staging.json
- prod.json
Summary:
- Total Issues: 5
- Critical: 2
- Warnings: 3
Critical Issues:
1. Missing Key: prod.json missing 'database.ssl'
Impact: SSL may be disabled in production
Resolution: Add "ssl": true to prod.json
2. Security Issue: Hardcoded password in dev.json
Impact: Credentials exposed in config file
Resolution: Use environment variable ${DB_PASSWORD}
Warnings:
3. Type Mismatch: timeout is number in dev, string in staging
Resolution: Standardize to number type
4. Divergent Value: max_connections differs (dev:10, prod:100)
Note: May be intentional for different environments
5. Deprecated Key: 'legacy_mode' is deprecated
Resolution: Remove or migrate to new settingCompare dev, staging, prod configs to ensure consistency while allowing intentional differences.
Validate that shared configuration keys are consistent across services.
Detect missing or changed keys when upgrading configuration versions.
Scan for hardcoded secrets and insecure settings.

Automatically analyzes configuration files to detect inconsistencies, conflicts, missing keys, and divergent values across environments, versions, or modules. Config Consistency Checker is an agent skill from ArabelaTso/Skills-4-SE. Automatically analyzes configuration files to detect inconsistencies, conflicts, missing keys, and divergent values across environments, versions, or modules.
Config Consistency Checker fits situations like: managing multi-environment configurations; detecting config drift; validating configuration changes; ensuring consistency across microservices.
Run `npx skills add ArabelaTso/Skills-4-SE --skill config-consistency-checker -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (skills/config-consistency-checker in ArabelaTso/Skills-4-SE) into .claude/skills/config-consistency-checker in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.
Run `npx skills add ArabelaTso/Skills-4-SE --skill config-consistency-checker -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (skills/config-consistency-checker in ArabelaTso/Skills-4-SE) into .agents/skills/config-consistency-checker in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.
Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add ArabelaTso/Skills-4-SE --skill config-consistency-checker -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/config-consistency-checker, .gemini/skills/config-consistency-checker, .github/skills/config-consistency-checker and .opencode/skills/config-consistency-checker in your project.
Going by SKILL.md and its folder, Config Consistency Checker needs credentials named DATABASE_PASSWORD, API_KEY and DB_PASSWORD. Our summary lists: A credential in API_KEY.
SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.
Our automated static check of SKILL.md found notes only (mentions a .env file), nothing it rates as a warning. It is not a guarantee. Review the folder before installing.
Config Consistency Checker is published under the Apache-2.0 licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.
About 1.2k tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 4.9k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.
Skills that share tags, products or a category with Config Consistency Checker: API Security Design (vinayaklatthe/microsoft-security-skills, 175 stars), Firecrawl Build Onboarding (firecrawl/firecrawl, 190k stars), Node Backend Development Guidelines (diet103/claude-code-infrastructure-showcase, 10k stars) and Nodejs Backend Patterns (ever-works/ever-works, 162 stars).
