 """
 Development workflow runner for the Skelly Godot project.
 
-Runs code quality checks (linting, formatting, testing) individually or together.
+Runs code quality checks (linting, formatting, testing, validation) individually or together.
 Provides colored output and error reporting.
 
 Usage examples:
-    python tools/run_development.py                    # Run all steps
-    python tools/run_development.py --lint             # Only linting
-    python tools/run_development.py --steps lint test  # Custom workflow
+    python tools/run_development.py                           # Run all steps
+    python tools/run_development.py --lint                    # Only linting
+    python tools/run_development.py --validate                # Only file validation
+    python tools/run_development.py --validate --silent       # Silent validation (only errors)
+    python tools/run_development.py --test --yaml             # Test results in YAML format
+    python tools/run_development.py --steps lint test         # Custom workflow
+
+Features:
+- GDScript formatting and linting
+- Test execution
+- YAML, TOML, and JSON file validation (respects .gitignore)
+- Colored output and comprehensive error reporting
+- Machine-readable YAML output for CI/CD integration
 
 NOTE: Handles "successful but noisy" linter output such as
 "Success: no problems found" - treats these as clean instead of warnings.
