When and how to pre-validate a CSV against Salesforce picklist rules and record-type assignments BEFORE running a Data Loader / Bulk API insert or upsert — restricted picklists, record-type-scoped values, inactive values, Global Value Sets, dependent picklists, multi-select delimiters, API name vs label, and the 255-char per-value limit. NOT for post-load reconciliation, NOT for general Data Loader column mapping (see data-loader-csv-column-mapping), NOT for choosing between Data Loader and Bulk API (see bulk-api-and-large-data-loads).

From the source SKILL.md

Activate this skill when an inbound CSV is about to be sent through Data Loader, Workbench, or the Bulk API and the destination SObject has restricted picklists, record-type-scoped picklists, dependent picklists, multi-select picklists, or Global Value Sets. The goal is to run a deterministic pre-load check that surfaces every row + column whose value will be rejected (or silently truncated) by the platform — before the load runs, not from the error CSV after.
