House convention #5 (docs/MAINTAINING.md): new skills get a blind validation run before release — a fresh agent executes each skill without knowing the expected outcome. clownware-go-tools shipped at v0.1.0 (now v0.2.0) with probe-level verification only (all 18 pre-fetch probes tested in bash+zsh across hit/miss/unrelated contexts) but no blind execution pass.
Skills to validate, each in go-performance-starter (the hit context) plus one non-starter Go repo (graceful-degradation context):
templ-component-scaffold — scaffold a component; verify typed props + generate step
test-scaffold — stub a table-driven test that compiles green
sqlc-query-scaffold — add a query + repo seam; verify task db:generate round-trip
perf-budget-check — verify it orchestrates task test:performance and reports per-gate verdicts
pr-description — on a real branch; verify task ci checklist and master base detection
The skill-validate skill (code-tools) exists for exactly this — pin ground truth, run blind, score reproduction.
