Cognitive Order Validator Skill
Status: Operational Skill Category: Validation (Structural)
1. Skill Purpose
The cognitive-order-validator enforces the strict separation of concerns defined in the architectural_invariants.md. It ensures that "Thinking" layers (Signals, Narratives) do not perform "Acting" (Execution, Adapters) or import their dependencies.
2. Invocation Contract
Standard Grammar
Invoke cognitive-order-validator
Mode: <VERIFY | DRY_RUN>
Target: <path/to/src_dir>
ExecutionScope:
mode: all
Options:
enforce: <warnings | errors>3. Supported Modes & Selectors
- VERIFY: Scan target files and return PASS/FAIL based on layer interaction rules.
- DRY_RUN: Perform the scan but return success even if violations are found (used for auditing legacy code).
4. Hook & Skill Chaining
- Chained From: Invoked as a Post-Execution Hook for implementation tasks.
- Chained To: Reports are consumed by the
drift-detector.
5. Metadata & State
- Inputs: Source code,
architectural_invariants.md. - Outputs: Error report detailing illegal imports or keyword leaks.
6. Invariants & Prohibitions
- Thinking != Acting: Pure logic files must not contain execution side-effects.
- Unidirectional Flow: Upper layers cannot be imported by lower layers.
- Market Logic Isolation: Trading primitives are forbidden in the Regime/Narrative layers.
7. Example Invocation
