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

Copy<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:

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

For entire project:

Copymcp__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
