Description
Description
It would be nice if the offline fortran vs metadata checker also linted the XML SDFs to validate those.
Solution

def validate_xml_file(filename, schema_root, version, logger,
schema_path=None, error_on_noxmllint=False):

Research direction
Start in scripts/offline_check_fortran_vs_metadata.py and inspect how SDF paths are discovered and checked. Read validate_xml_file in scripts/parse_tools/xml_tools.py, then use it for each SDF and confirm that XML validation is performed alongside the existing checks. Done means the checker validates every SDF on its path and reports validation failures appropriately.
