Description

The repository has no automated validation of the publiccode.yml files in data/. Adding a check would catch structural errors in PRs before merge.

The publiccode-parser-action GitHub Action or the publiccode-parser-go CLI (also available as Docker image) can validate files against the spec.

Suggested approach: add a CI workflow that runs the parser against all .yml files in data/ on every PR.

Research direction

Inspect the existing CI workflow configuration and the YAML files under data/. Compare the publiccode-parser-action and publiccode-parser-go options, then run the chosen parser against every .yml file on pull requests. Done means malformed publiccode.yml files cause CI to fail before merge.
