network-config-validation audits network configuration files for syntax issues, unsafe defaults, and baseline drift.
About
The network-config-validation skill from everything-claude-code helps agents review network configuration artifacts such as router, switch, firewall, and host network settings before deployment or during incident response. Although the published SKILL.md is a Japanese translation stub pointing to the upstream ECC skill, the intended workflow validates configuration syntax, checks for hazardous patterns like open ACLs or missing encryption, compares files against known-good baselines, and summarizes diffs operators should fix. Agents use it when users paste configs, reference network-config-validation, or ask to audit interface, routing, VLAN, DNS, or firewall stanzas prior to apply. Output should flag blocking errors separately from warnings and cite exact stanza lines when possible. Pair with network-bgp-diagnostics when BGP session issues appear after config changes.
- Validates network configuration syntax and unsafe defaults before apply.
- Compares configs against expected baselines to highlight drift.
- Separates blocking errors from warnings with line-level references.
- Covers router, switch, firewall, and host network settings.
- Complements BGP diagnostics when routing changes cause session failures.

How do I validate a network config before applying it to production devices?
Validate network device and host configuration files for syntax errors, unsafe defaults, and drift against expected baselines.
Who is it for?
Network engineers auditing configs pasted into chat or stored in repos.
Skip if: Live BGP session troubleshooting without config files (use network-bgp-diagnostics).
When should I use this skill?
User mentions network-config-validation or asks to audit router, switch, or firewall configs.
What you get
A reviewed config report with blocking errors, warnings, and baseline diffs before deployment.
- config audit report

How it compares
Choose network-config-validation for Cisco device config gates; use general security review skills for application code rather than IOS snippets.
FAQ
What does network-config-validation check?
Syntax errors, unsafe defaults, and differences from expected baseline network configurations.
Does this skill replace live BGP debugging?
No. Use network-bgp-diagnostics for active BGP session failures after config review.
Why is the published doc a stub?
The catalog entry currently ships a Japanese translation placeholder referencing the upstream ECC skill file.
Is Network Config Validation safe to install?
skills.sh reports 2 of 3 security scanners passed. Review the Security Audits panel on this page before installing in production.
