Poem

A whisker twitch, a wake word said,
I bounce through bytes on soft-tread tread—
Who speaks? I check, then hop along,
If it’s you, we sing the command song;
If not, I nibble silence tight—
Secure as carrots in the night. 🥕🐇

Check name	Status	Explanation	Resolution
Title Check	⚠️ Warning	The title “ww validator” is too vague and relies on an unclear acronym, so it does not clearly summarize the primary change of adding a new blog post about the OVOS Wake Word Speaker Validator plugin. It fails to convey that this PR introduces a detailed blog entry, its purpose, or its context in the project. As a result, teammates scanning the PR history may not understand its intent.	Please update the title to fully describe the change, for example “Add OVOS Wake Word Speaker Validator blog post” or “Publish blog post for Wake Word Speaker Validator plugin,” using clear terms and proper capitalization.

2-11: Front matter: future-dated publish + metadata shape verification

• The date is in the future; ensure your site is configured to publish future posts, or this won’t render until 2025‑11‑01.
• Verify your theme expects author: { name, picture } and ogImage: { url } (some themes expect strings or different keys).

4-10: Validate asset path and OG image behavior

Confirm the image exists at /assets/blog/ww-validator/thumb.png and that your theme uses ogImage.url for social previews; otherwise, previews may break.
