* fix(ci): flag SKILL.md frontmatter defects in validate-skills
Issue #1663 reported two SKILL.md frontmatter defects (missing `name:`
on skill-stocktake; literal block-scalar `description: |-` on
openclaw-persona-forge) that PR #1664 addresses at the data level.
This change is complementary: it extends `scripts/ci/validate-skills.js`
to catch the same class of defect statically going forward, so the
frontmatter-vs-renderer problems do not silently reappear as new skills
land.
## Checks added
- Frontmatter must declare a `name:` field.
- Frontmatter `description:` must not use a literal block scalar
(`|` / `|-` / `|+`) — these preserve internal newlines and break
flat-table renderers keyed off `description`. Folded (`>`) and inline
strings are accepted.
## Behavior
- Frontmatter findings default to WARN (exit 0) so this PR does not
break CI while the two known offenders are still on main. Pass
`--strict` or set `CI_STRICT_SKILLS=1` to promote them to ERROR
(exit 1). Structural findings (missing / empty SKILL.md) remain
errors as before.
- Today against main, the validator reports exactly two warnings —
the same two files called out in #1663 — and exits 0. When #1664
lands, the validator reports zero warnings, at which point strict
mode can be enabled in CI.
## Parser notes
- Bespoke frontmatter parser mirrors the style of `validate-agents.js`
(tolerant of UTF-8 BOM and CRLF; no new npm dependency).
- Block-scalar continuation lines are skipped so keys inside a block
scalar are not mistaken for top-level keys.
- Hidden directories (`.something/`) under skills/ are now skipped.
## Tests
Adds five focused tests to `tests/ci/validators.test.js`:
- warns when frontmatter is missing `name` (default mode)
- errors when frontmatter is missing `name` (--strict mode)
- warns on literal block-scalar description (|-)
- accepts folded (>) and inline descriptions under --strict
- skips hidden directories under skills/
## Docs
Adds two bullets to the `Skill Checklist` in CONTRIBUTING.md covering
the two rules now surfaced by the validator.
Refs #1663. Complements (does not compete with) #1664.

* fix(ci): harden SKILL.md frontmatter checks after bot review
Address findings from CodeRabbit, Greptile, and cubic on #1669:
- Guard empty or whitespace-only `name:` values. Previously
`name: ` silently passed because the presence check only
tested key-set membership; now inspectFrontmatter captures
trimmed values and validate flags an explicit 'name is empty'
WARN/ERROR.
- Broaden block-scalar detection to cover YAML 1.2 indent
indicators (`|2`, `|-2`, `>2-`) and trailing comments
(`|- # note`). The old regex required a bare `|`/`>` with
optional `+`/`-`, which let valid-but-disallowed forms slip
through.
- Update CONTRIBUTING.md checklist to list `|+` alongside `|`
and `|-` for parity with the validator.
- Extend runSkillsValidator to accept env overrides and add four
regression tests: empty name, |+ description, |-2 + comment, and
CI_STRICT_SKILLS=1.
* fix(ci): address round-2 review on validate-skills frontmatter
- Tighten extractFrontmatter closing delimiter to require a newline or
end-of-file after the closing `---`, so body lines beginning with
`---text` are not parsed as frontmatter (CodeRabbit).
- Strip both trailing and comment-only values in inspectFrontmatter, so
`name: # todo` is surfaced as empty rather than silently passing
(cubic P2).
- Extract validateSkillDir helper so the per-directory validation
block moves out of validateSkills, keeping both functions under the
50-line guideline (CodeRabbit nit).
- Hoist runSkillsValidator to module scope in the test harness and
share the spawnSync import with execFileSync so the helper stops
re-requiring child_process on every invocation (CodeRabbit nit).
- Add regression tests: comment-only `name:` values must fail strict
mode; `---trailing` body lines must not be parsed as frontmatter.

* fix(tests): skip bash tests on Windows and fix USERPROFILE in resolve-ecc-root
- hooks.test.js: add SKIP_BASH guard for 8 bash-dependent tests
(detect-project.sh, observe.sh) while keeping 207 Node.js tests running
- resolve-ecc-root.test.js: add USERPROFILE to env overrides in 2
INLINE_RESOLVE tests so os.homedir() resolves correctly on Windows

* fix(tests): handle BOM in shebang stripping and skip worktree tests on Windows
- validators.test.js: replace regex stripShebang with character-code
approach that handles UTF-8 BOM before shebang line
- detect-project-worktree.test.js: skip entire file on Windows since
tests invoke bash scripts directly

- Replace node -e with temp file execution in validator tests to avoid
Windows shebang parsing failures (node -e cannot handle scripts that
originally contained #!/usr/bin/env node shebangs)
- Remove duplicate blank line in skills/rust-patterns/SKILL.md (MD012)
Round 80: Three previously untested conditional branches:
- session-end.js: entry.message?.role === 'user' third OR condition
(fires when type is not 'user' but message.role is)
- package-manager.js: getExecCommand with truthy non-string args
(typeof check short-circuits, value still appended via ternary)
- validate-hooks.js: legacy array format parsing path (lines 115-135)
with 'Hook N' error labels instead of 'EventType[N]'
- evaluate-session: main().catch when HOME is non-directory (ENOTDIR)
- suggest-compact: main().catch double-failure when TMPDIR is non-directory
- validate-hooks: invalid JSON in hooks.json triggers error exit
Total tests: 831 → 834
Round 73: Add 3 tests for genuine untested code paths:
- session-aliases cleanupAliases returns failure when save blocked after removing aliases
- session-aliases setAlias returns failure when save blocked on new alias creation
- validate-commands silently skips broken symlinks in skill directory scanning
- session-end.js: entry.name/entry.input fallback in direct tool_use entries
- validate-commands.js: "would create:" regex alternation skip line
- session-aliases.js: updateAliasTitle save failure with read-only dir
- evaluate-session.js: verify regex whitespace tolerance around colon
matches "type" : "user" (with spaces), not just compact JSON
- validate-rules.js: empty directory with no .md files yields Validated 0
- validate-skills.js: directory with only files, no subdirectories yields
Validated 0
Total: 800 tests, all passing
new Date('YYYY-MM-DD') creates UTC midnight, which in negative UTC offset
timezones (e.g., Hawaii) causes getDate() to return the previous day.
Replaced with new Date(year, month - 1, day) for correct local-time behavior.
Added 15 tests: session-manager datetime verification and edge cases (7),
package-manager getCommandPattern special characters (4), and
validators model/skill-reference validation (4). Tests: 651 → 666.
The command cross-reference regex /^.*`\/(...)`.*$/gm only captured the
LAST command ref per line due to greedy .* consuming earlier refs.
Replaced with line-by-line processing using non-anchored regex to
capture ALL command references.
New tests:
- 4 validate-commands multi-ref-per-line tests (regression)
- 8 evaluate-session threshold boundary tests (new file)
- 6 session-aliases edge case tests (cleanup, rename, path matching)
The test was using 'claude-sonnet-4-5-20250929' which isn't in VALID_MODELS
(haiku/sonnet/opus). Use 'sonnet' with a description field containing
colons to properly test colon handling in frontmatter values.
