skills/ads-validate/SKILL.md
Validate Claude Ads contracts, scoring inputs, run bundles, capabilities, source freshness, safety, installation, uninstall, or release readiness. Use for ads validate, ads status, ads next, stale claims with missing tool access, maturity checks, ownership-manifest uninstall, preserving unrelated ads-* skills, checksum verification, preflight, QA, or release audits. Missing access must demote stale evidence for the run and block dependent release-current claims before recovery guidance.

Some scanners were skipped, did not run, or reported a non-clean status. Review each row below.
Choose the narrowest validation target:
Return machine-readable pass/fail results, the highest-priority blocker, exact evidence, and recovery steps. Never promote maturity because documentation is polished or a prior release passed. Stale evidence and skipped remote CI demote readiness.
If an expired claim cannot be reverified because source or filesystem access is unavailable, return a failed current-evidence check, demote that claim for the current run, and block dependent release-current assertions before asking for the missing access.
An uninstall may remove only exact paths in the matching Claude Ads ownership
manifest. Validate the entire manifest and configured root boundaries before any
deletion. If the manifest is absent, invalid, mismatched, or unsafe, stop before
deleting anything and require manual review. Never discover targets with an
ads-* glob; unrelated skills such as ads-weather must remain untouched.
Reject pipe-to-shell install instructions. A safe install uses the host's native installer or a locally inspected checkout/archive; archives require a SHA-256 checksum verified against a trusted release channel before execution.
