# Good skill (test fixture)
Structurally perfect on purpose. The description above is one single-quoted
line containing a `: ` — legal under a spec-strict YAML parser precisely
because it is quoted, which is the convention the Portability contract
mandates.
## Purpose
Be the known-good baseline for every per-skill check in the validator.
## Use When
The self-test suite needs a fixture that must produce zero errors.
## Inputs to Inspect
- This file.
- The sibling `evals/evals.json`.
## Workflow
1. `validate_skill()` is called on this directory.
2. The returned report is asserted to be empty.
## Output Format
An empty error list.
## Validation Checklist
- [ ] Frontmatter strict-parses.
- [ ] All nine required sections are present, in canonical order.
## Gotchas
Editing this fixture to be "more realistic" risks introducing a genuine
violation and turning a green baseline red for the wrong reason.
## Stop Conditions
Stop if this fixture ever needs a violation to pass — that means the validator
changed, and the change needs review, not a fixture edit.
## Supporting Files
- `evals/evals.json` — structural placeholder; the validator only checks it parses.
