Codex skill that runs the 5 release-readiness gates from
harness validate.
What it checks
| # | Check | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | doctor |
File shape + manifest sha256 + at-least-one host artifact |
| 2 | verify |
Witness manifest signature (Ed25519) — skipped if no witness yet |
| 3 | path-guard |
Scans your TS/JS/Rust files for hardcoded /tmp/, C:\, /Users/, /home/ — the original Windows /tmp bug regression class |
| 4 | mcp |
.mcp/servers.json entries have name + command |
| 5 | secrets |
gcloud auth list + project + NPM_TOKEN exist in GCP Secret Manager |
Each check reports PASS / FAIL / WARN with a one-line detail. Exits 1 if any FAIL.
Usage from Codex
/validate-harness
/validate-harness path=./my-harness
/validate-harness path=./my-harness skip_gcp=true
/validate-harness secret=NPM_TOKEN_DEV
Equivalent CLI
harness validate ./my-harness --skip-gcp --secret=NPM_TOKEN_DEV
Why this exists
Before iter 20, you needed to remember to run harness doctor, harness verify, harness secrets check, and node scripts/path-guard.mjs separately. This is the single release-readiness gate.
