What it does

Validation Doctor is an agent skill from mverab/eGEOagents. Check Brave Search and Chrome DevTools MCP availability and provide exact setup snippets. Use when validation dependencies are missing or uncertain.

Its SKILL.md is about 370 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 Marketing & SEO, covering AI search optimization, Web search and Browser testing. It works with Chrome DevTools, Brave Search API and Model Context Protocol. The repository describes itself as: Open-source Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) & Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) toolkit — optimize content to rank in ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini & Claude. AI SEO / LLM SEO… The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Validation dependencies are missing
  • Tasks that involve AI search optimization
  • Tasks that involve Web search

Example prompts

  • “/validation-doctor”

Requirements

  • Node.js
  • A credential in BRAVE_API_KEY

Workflow steps

2 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Chrome DevTools MCP
  2. Brave Search MCP

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit ffd5b49. 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

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are json).

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

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

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

  • Credentials

    Names these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:

    • BRAVE_API_KEY

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

Context cost

Validation Doctor loads about 371 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 42 tokens; SKILL.md has 106 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~42
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~371

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.
