version: "1.0.2" name: feature-validation description: Deprecated alias for validation. Use when older prompts ask for feature-validation; route the work to the validation skill instead of running the legacy transcript-heavy workflow.

Feature Validation

This skill is deprecated. Use validation for evidence-based browser validation of implemented web apps, UI features, and user workflows.

Route

1. Load ../validation/SKILL.md.
2. Run the validation workflow there.
3. Prefer agent-browser by default, with playwright-local as the first

fallback when the target project already has Playwright installed.

1. Write evidence under the target project's test-manifest/ directory, not

this repo.

Why

The legacy workflow required reading Claude transcript files from ~/.claude/projects/*.jsonl and bundled retrospective/auto-healing behavior into normal validation. That made it provider-specific, fragile, and expensive in context. The current validation skill is CLI-agnostic and keeps state, evidence, adapters, and reporting explicit.

Legacy Reference

The old body is kept only for archaeology:

• references/legacy-feature-validation.md

Do not copy its transcript-reading or auto-healing phases into new skills.
