Could one of the following be used or used to generate a better workflow:
https://html-validate.org/usage/cli.html - written in Javascript, but
has a command line interface
https://github.com/validator/validator - packaged, but a little

https://github.com/w3c-validators/w3c_validators - Wrapper written in
Ruby, with a nice interface to validate a local file
