Rules Evaluation Framework

When NOT To Use

• Evaluating skills (use abstract:skills-eval)
• Evaluating hooks (use abstract:hooks-eval)
• Writing a new rule (use hookify:writing-rules)

Overview

This skill evaluates Claude Code rules in .claude/rules/ directories against quality standards. It validates YAML frontmatter, glob pattern syntax, content quality, and directory organization. Rules files support path-scoped conditional loading via paths frontmatter and unconditional rules (no paths field).

Key validations: YAML syntax errors, unquoted glob patterns, Cursor-specific fields (alwaysApply, globs), overly broad patterns, content verbosity, and naming conventions.

Quick Start
