Validate
Run the full Cortex TMS quality gate and report results.
Steps
1. `pnpm test` — report pass/fail count 2. `pnpm run lint` — report errors and warnings 3. `pnpm run build` — report success or failure 4. `node bin/cortex-tms.js validate --strict` — report check results
Rules
- Run all four steps regardless of failures
- Report results clearly with pass/fail for each step
- Do not fix anything — just report
- If everything passes, say so. If something fails, show the relevant output.
