Integration Validator Skill

Ensures new code integrates properly with existing systems and starter scripts.

What This Does

Validates integration between:

• New Code ↔ Starter Scripts - Does the new feature work with GameManager, managers, utilities?
• Manager Dependencies - InputManager → PlayerController, AudioManager → sound events, etc.
• Initialization Order - Do things initialize in the right sequence?
• Circular Dependencies - Are there any dependency cycles?
• Reference Integrity - Will all serialized fields and connections work?
• Event/Callback Chains - Will events fire in correct order?
• Pooling Integration - If new code spawns objects, are they pooled correctly?
• Async Coordination - Do async operations coordinate without race conditions?

Activation Triggers

This skill activates when you:

• Ask "does this work with my starters?"
• Request an "integration check"
• Ask about "dependencies" or "how this connects"
• Say "will this work with the rest?"
• Ask about "initialization order"

Input Format

Provide:

• New script(s) being added
• What they interact with from starters
• Any custom connections needed

Example:

New BossEnemy system needs to:
- Register with GameManager
- Receive input from InputManager
- Play sounds via AudioManager
- Use pooling via PoolingManager

Output Format

Validation report:

1. Integration Map - How new code connects to starters
2. Dependency Graph - What depends on what
3. Initialization Sequence - Correct order to awaken/setup
4. Compatibility - Any version conflicts or pattern mismatches?
5. Potential Issues - Circular deps, missing references, race conditions
6. Connection Checklist - What to wire up in Inspector
7. Ready Status - Safe to integrate or needs fixes

During Development

Run before merging new features to main development branch. Catches integration issues early.
