validation-trigger
Natural language wrapper for validation commands - automatically triggers /validate-and-fix when users request quality checks, linting, or auto-fixes
When & Why to Use This Skill
The validation-trigger skill is an intelligent natural language wrapper designed to streamline the software development lifecycle. By mapping conversational requests directly to the `/validate-and-fix` command, it allows developers to execute code quality checks, linting, and automated repairs without needing to remember specific command syntax, thereby ensuring codebase consistency and reducing manual overhead.
Use Cases
- Automated Linting: Quickly resolve style violations and syntax warnings by asking the agent to 'fix linting' or 'run linter' during development.
- Code Quality Assurance: Maintain high standards by triggering comprehensive validation checks with simple prompts like 'validate code' or 'check quality' before merging changes.
- Seamless Formatting: Ensure consistent code styling across a project by requesting the agent to 'format code' or 'fix formatting' using natural language.
- Rapid Issue Remediation: Accelerate the debugging process by using 'auto-fix' commands to automatically identify and repair common programmatic issues detected by the system.

Trigger Reference
This skill activates on:
- Keywords: "fix linting", "validate code", "quality check", "auto-fix", "run quality checks", "fix issues", "lint", "format code", "fix formatting"
- Intent Patterns:
(fix|validate|check).*(lint|quality|code|issues),auto.*?fix,quality.*?(check|validate),run.*?checks,(format|lint).*?code
From: skill-rules.json - validation-trigger configuration
Purpose
Automatically trigger validation and auto-fix commands (/validate-and-fix) when users request code quality checks or automatic fixes using natural language.
Core Behavior
When activated in IMPLEMENT mode:
Validation Intent Detection
- Detect quality check and auto-fix requests
- Route to validation command
Command Invocation
- "fix linting" →
/validate-and-fix - Command runs linting, type checks, tests, and auto-fixes issues
- "fix linting" →
Natural Language Examples
Triggers this skill:
- ✓ "Fix linting errors"
- ✓ "Validate code quality"
- ✓ "Auto-fix issues"
- ✓ "Run quality checks"
- ✓ "Format code"
Safety Guardrails
WRITE-CAPABLE RULES:
- ✓ Only execute in IMPLEMENT mode
- ✓ Verify active task before auto-fixing
- ✓ Command modifies files to fix issues
