Run the full quality gate (ruff + mypy + pytest + tsc + vitest) and report PASS/FAIL for each command.

What it does

Validate is an agent skill from juliepy/AI-Engineer-from-scrach. Run the full quality gate (ruff + mypy + pytest + tsc + vitest) and report PASS/FAIL for each command. Run before any commit or PR.

Its SKILL.md is about 500 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 Testing & QA, covering Unit testing, Type safety and Quality gates. It works with pytest, Ruff and Vitest.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Unit testing
  • Tasks that involve Type safety
  • Tasks that involve Quality gates

Example prompts

  • “/validate”

Requirements

  • Node.js

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit d9e02cb. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    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.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • uv
    • npx
    • npm
    • ruff
    • mypy
    • pytest
    • tsc
    • vitest

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use uv, npx and npm, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Validate loads about 500 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 35 tokens; SKILL.md has 146 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~35
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~500

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.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 146 words (~500 tokens).

“Run the complete quality gate and report PASS/FAIL for each command.”
