CUE Validator
Catch configuration mistakes before they reach production.
CUE Validator helps you validate the currently open YAML, JSON, or TOML file against the nearest local .cue schema in your workspace. It gives you instant feedback while you edit, so schema drift, missing fields, and invalid values are caught early instead of during deployment.
Validate against a local .cue schema with support for:
- YAML
- JSON
- TOML
- other related data files

Usage
- Open a workspace that contains a
.cue file in the same directory or a parent directory.
- Open a YAML/JSON/TOML file to validate.
- Run the command
CUE: Validate current file or let the extension validate automatically on save.
The extension looks for the nearest .cue file and runs:
cue vet -c=false <schema>.cue <data-file>
It then highlights any matching problems directly in the active document.
