# validate

> Run a series of validations on your local directory

The `openlayer validate` runs a series of validations on your local directory
to verify if it conforms to Openlayer's expectations.

It specifically checks the fields in your [openlayer.json](/development/openlayer-json)
and your **output directory** structure (if you are [pre-computing your model outputs](/development/configuring-output-generation)).

## Usage

```bash theme={null}
openlayer validate
```
