The read-only infra-delivery STATIC-VALIDATION step (step 6) — statically validate an infra change BEFORE the test/plan/merge steps. A PROCEDURE skill the generic agent runs inside a CTX session: resolve the active stack profile, run the directly-allowlisted read-role `tofu validate` + `tofu fmt` verbs (the IaC is well-formed + canonically formatted) plus the active profile''s EXISTING read-only `infra_binding.policy` slot (the render + conftest/OPA evaluation), all read-only through the CTX command-policy guard, SURFACE violations, and record the validation observation as a `.foundry/id-validate-report` STEP-REPORT NOTE. Read-only/never-fix: it NEVER applies, edits the IaC, runs `tofu fmt -write`, or waves a violation through. ADVISORY craft — it does NOT gate, approve, or merge; the merge floor (the adopter''s branch protection + CI checks, see docs/merge-floor.md) is the merge authority. Static validation runs no `tofu plan` (no `plan_results`), so it records a STEP-REPORT NOTE — the bespoke `emit_infra_walk_evidence` plan recorder this note used to be contrasted against was retired and does not exist in scripts/. Names no `infra_binding.test` slot (it does not exist) and no `tofu test` (not allowlisted), and never invokes `ctx-posture` (mutation-only).

From the source SKILL.md

The infra-delivery step sequence (a documented procedure this skill family forms — no workflow engine or state-machine file ships) drives an infra change → merge. Step 6 is the static-validation step for the everyday-change loop: a PROCEDURE skill the generic agent runs inside a CTX session to statically validate the change before the test / plan / merge steps. It runs read-only structural + render/policy checks — tofu validate and tofu fmt (the IaC is syntactically well-formed + canonically formatted; both are directly on the loader's tofu read-role allowlist — tofu read-only verbs =…

What this skill does

Id Validate is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the engineering-misc sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/id-validate/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.

Who uses this skill

The Id Validate Claude Code skill is built for software engineers, backend developers, full-stack teams, and technical leads building and maintaining production systems. It's part of ClaudSkills (also referred to as Claude Skills or Claude Code Skills) — the open community-curated registry of 176,000+ SKILL.md files for Anthropic's Claude Code agent and the wider Claude ecosystem (Claude API, Claude Agent SDK).

Frequently asked questions

How do I install the Id Validate Claude Code skill?
Install via the ClaudSkills desktop app (one click) or copy SKILL.md from the source repository to ~/.claude/skills/id-validate/SKILL.md and restart Claude Code. Both flows are detailed at claudskills.com/install/.
What does the Id Validate skill do?
The read-only infra-delivery STATIC-VALIDATION step (step 6) — statically validate an infra change BEFORE the test/plan/merge steps. A PROCEDURE skill the generic agent runs inside a CTX session: resolve the active stack profile, run the directly-allowlisted read-role `tofu validate` + `tofu fmt` verbs (the IaC is well-formed + canonically formatted) plus the active profile''s EXISTING read-only `infra_binding.policy` slot (the render + conftest/OPA evaluation), all read-only through the CTX command-policy guard, SURFACE violations, and record the validation observation as a `.foundry/id-validate-report` STEP-REPORT NOTE. Read-only/never-fix: it NEVER applies, edits the IaC, runs `tofu fmt -write`, or waves a violation through. ADVISORY craft — it does NOT gate, approve, or merge; the merge floor (the adopter''s branch protection + CI checks, see docs/merge-floor.md) is the merge authority. Static validation runs no `tofu plan` (no `plan_results`), so it records a STEP-REPORT NOTE — the bespoke `emit_infra_walk_evidence` plan recorder this note used to be contrasted against was retired and does not exist in scripts/. Names no `infra_binding.test` slot (it does not exist) and no `tofu test` (not allowlisted), and never invokes `ctx-posture` (mutation-only).
Is this skill free to install?
Yes. ClaudSkills is an open registry — every skill keeps its source repository's license, and manual install via copy is free. ClaudSkills Pro ($9/mo, $79/yr, or $149 one-time) adds one-click install via the desktop app and a multi-signal Quality Score.
When should I use the Id Validate skill?
Use Id Validate when your Claude Code task falls under the Engineering category — specifically in the engineering misc area. Claude Code auto-discovers installed skills and invokes the right one based on the task description, so you can also ask Claude directly (e.g. "use Id Validate" or describe the task and let Claude pick). Browse related skills at /category/engineering/.
What is a Claude Code skill and how does the Id Validate skill fit in?
A Claude Code skill is a SKILL.md file that lives under ~/.claude/skills/<name>/ and tells the Claude Code CLI agent how to perform a specific task (instructions, prompts, allowed tools). Skills are auto-discovered at session start. Id Validate is one of 67,000+ skills indexed in the open ClaudSkills catalog, classified under the Engineering category.
