Cross-cutting validation methodology for verifying phase outputs and project integrity

Tokens, turns and time describe resource use, not a dollar price.
One of 10 test cases the skill fixed. Same model, same prompt, with and without the skill.
A repository has set `MAESTRO_VALIDATION_STRICTNESS` to `strict`. During the linting step, a non-fatal deprecation warning is emitted, but exit code is 0. Does phase execution continue to unit tests?
| Checked | Without skill | With skill |
|---|---|---|
| Treats deprecation warnings as blocking failures in strict mode. | Missed | Passed |
The instructions your model reads when the skill loads.
Activate this skill when validating phase outputs during orchestration execution or when running standalone validation checks. This skill provides the pipeline, heuristics, and interpretation rules for verifying that changes meet quality standards.
Execute validation steps in this order. Stop on the first blocking failure unless the user explicitly requests continuing.
Verify the project compiles without errors.
