GDScript Validate

Validate GDScript file changes by refreshing Godot's language server cache and checking for errors/warnings.

When to Use

After creating or editing GDScript files (.gd):

  • Multiple files: Run once after editing all files
  • Single file: Run immediately after editing

Validation Steps

Step 1: Refresh Godot Cache

<this skill dir>/scripts/refresh_godot_lsp.sh
  • Updates Godot's language server cache to recognize GDScript changes.
  • Important: When processing multiple files, run this once after editing all files (not per file).

Step 2: Check Diagnostics

For specific file:

mcp__ide__getDiagnostics --uri file:///absolute/path/to/file.gd

For entire project:

mcp__ide__getDiagnostics

Note: Only available when IDE MCP server is connected. Skip if unavailable.

Step 3: Review Results

Check the diagnostic output for:

  • Errors: Blocking issues that must be fixed
  • Warnings: Code quality issues that should be addressed

Note on diagnostic errors:

  • Real errors (UNUSED_PARAMETER, TYPE_MISMATCH, etc.): Fix your code
  • False positives: If code is correct but error shows "wrong argument count" after changing signatures, ignore it (VSCode LSP cache issue, resolves on restart)
  • DO NOT EDIT "./godot/" directory
