VFX-D-1102¶

Title¶

YamlParseError

Explanation¶

The suite's YAML could not be parsed at all — reported as validation data (valid: false), not a tool error, because "your YAML does not parse" is itself the validation answer the caller asked for.

Common causes¶

• Inconsistent indentation — YAML is indentation-sensitive, and mixing tabs and spaces is a frequent trigger.
• An unclosed quote, bracket, or flow-style ({...}/[...]) collection.
• A duplicate key at the same mapping level.

Fixes¶

• Run the file through a YAML linter or formatter to surface the exact parse position.
• Check indentation consistency (spaces only, never tabs) throughout the file.
• Inspect the lines around the reported position for an unmatched quote or bracket.
