What artifacts does this skill review?

It primarily reviews task-mapping.md and tasks.md files to ensure they align with the project specifications and follow the human-in-loop framework standards.

How are issues classified by this skill?

Issues are classified as Critical (blocks progress), Important (significant gap to be flagged), or Minor (polish items that can be deferred).

How does it help with Test-Driven Development (TDD)?

The skill checks that every development cycle starts with a test task, followed by implementation and refactoring, ensuring no code is written without corresponding tests.

What is vertical slicing in this context?

It ensures that each development cycle delivers a functional piece of user value across all layers (frontend, backend, database) rather than just building horizontal infrastructure in isolation.

Collaboration Tools

Reviews task artifacts for vertical slice completeness, TDD structure, and requirement traceability to ensure high-quality project planning.

The validation-task-artifacts skill acts as a quality assurance gate within the human-in-loop multi-agent framework. It analyzes task mappings and implementation files to identify gaps in planning, such as missing vertical slices, incorrect TDD ordering, or broken traceability between user stories and specific tasks. By classifying issues by severity and providing actionable feedback, it ensures that Claude Code has a solid, testable roadmap before execution begins, preventing architectural debt and missed requirements.
