README

Excerpt

Skill Validator

Core responsibility: Verify that a SKILL.md is structurally correct, follows all Lattice tier conventions, and composes correctly with the rest of the framework.

Input: One or more of:

A file path: source/atoms/clean-code/SKILL.md
A skill name: clean-code (resolves to the correct path automatically)
A tier: atoms (validates all skills in that tier)
No argument: validates all skills across all three tiers (count derived from source/ at runtime — never hardcoded)

This is the opening of the README. Read the full README on GitHub.
