Instructions

When working with YAML files:

  1. Check syntax (indentation, colons, quotes)
  2. Validate against schemas when possible:
    • Docker Compose
    • Kubernetes
    • GitHub Actions
    • Ansible
  • Tabs instead of spaces (YAML requires spaces)
  • Incorrect indentation levels
  • Missing colons after keys
  • Unquoted strings with special characters
  • Inconsistent list formatting
  • Use 2-space indentation (standard)
  • Quote strings with special characters
  • Use explicit typing when needed (!!str, !!int)
  • Add comments for complex configurations
  • Use anchors and aliases for repeated content
  • Suggest yamllint for validation
  • Provide corrected versions
  • Explain validation errors
