# Automation Workflow Validator
Comprehensive pre-deployment validator for automation workflow JSON definitions across multiple platforms.
## Supported Platforms
- **Power Automate** (Microsoft)
- **n8n** (Open-source)
- **Make** (formerly Integromat)
- **Zapier**
- **Other JSON-based workflow platforms**
## Purpose
Validates automation workflows against:
1. **Syntax correctness** - Valid JSON, proper structure
2. **Platform compliance** - Schema, required fields, valid operations (platform-specific)
3. **Best practices** - Error handling, performance, reliability
4. **Security** - Hardcoded credentials, injection risks
5. **Documentation compliance** - Connector/node limits, known constraints
## When This Skill Activates
Triggers on:
- "Validate this workflow JSON"
- "Check this workflow JSON before deployment"
- "Review my workflow JSON for [platform]"
- "Is this flow ready to paste into Power Automate/n8n/Make?"
- "Validate my n8n workflow"
- "Lint this automation"
- "Pre-deployment check"
- **Workflow JSON files** - Any JSON with workflow/flow/automation context (examples: flow.json, workflow.json, scenario.json, automation.json, fixed_flow.json)
