Validation

mkdir -p output/alicloud-ai-image-zimage-turbo
for f in skills/ai/image/alicloud-ai-image-zimage-turbo/scripts/*.py; do
  python3 -m py_compile "$f"
done
echo "py_compile_ok" > output/alicloud-ai-image-zimage-turbo/validate.txt

Pass criteria: command exits 0 and `output/alicloud-ai-image-zimage-turbo/validate.txt` is generated.

Output And Evidence

Workflow

1) Confirm user intent, region, identifiers, and whether the operation is read-only or mutating.

2) Run one minimal read-only query first to verify connectivity and permissions.

3) Execute the target operation with explicit parameters and bounded scope.

4) Verify results and save output/evidence files.
