# Agent Configuration Validation Verify agent configurations meet ML Odyssey requirements. ## When to Use - Creating or modifying agent configurations - Before committing agent config changes - CI/CD validation before merge - Troubleshooting agent loading issues ## Quick Reference ```bash # Validate all agents python3 tests/agents/validate_configs.py .claude/agents/ # Validate single agent ./scripts/validate_agent.sh .claude/agents/agent-name.md ``` ## Validation Checklist Required YAML frontmatter fields: ```yaml --- name: agent-name # kebab-case identifier description: "Brief desc" # One sentence purpose mcp_fallback: none category: agent # Classification level: 0-5 # Hierarchy level phase: Plan|Test|Implementation|Package|Cleanup --- ``` Validation includes: - YAML syntax correctness - All required fields present - Correct field types and values - Valid tool names (Read, Write, Bash, Grep, Glob) - Valid agent references in delegates_to/escalates_to - Correct directory structure ## Error Handling | Error | Fix | |-------|-----| | No YAML frontmatter | Ensure file starts/ends with `---` | | Invalid phase value | Use: Plan, Test, Implementation, Package, Cleanup | | Delegation target not found | Verify agent name or create referenced agent | | Duplicate keys | Remove duplicate entries in frontmatter | | Wrong level type | Must be integer 0-5, not string | ## References - `/agents/templates/` - Agent configuration templates - `.claude/agents/` - All agent configurations - `CLAUDE.md` - Agent system guidelines
