# Validate Template Endpoint

`GET /v1/templates/{template_id}/validate`

Return structural violations for a template's goals and settings.

Checks: resolved_reference fields reference a registered data_source,
data_source endpoint.url is non-empty, output_schema.template is a
transformation map, default_params {fieldName} targets exist as sibling
fields, and items vs item_schema on resolved_reference arrays.

Returns {"violations": [...]} — empty list means no structural errors.
