+.SYNOPSIS
+    Validates that new database migration files follow naming conventions and chronological order.
+
+.DESCRIPTION
+    This script validates migration files in util/Migrator/DbScripts/ to ensure:
+    1. New migrations follow the naming format: YYYY-MM-DD_NN_Description.sql
+    2. New migrations are chronologically ordered (filename sorts after existing migrations)
+    3. Dates use leading zeros (e.g., 2025-01-05, not 2025-1-5)
+    4. A 2-digit sequence number is included (e.g., _00, _01)
+
+.PARAMETER BaseRef
+    The base git reference to compare against (e.g., 'main', 'HEAD~1')
+
+.PARAMETER CurrentRef
+    The current git reference (defaults to 'HEAD')
+
+.EXAMPLE
+    # For pull requests - compare against main branch
+    .\verify_migrations.ps1 -BaseRef main
+
+.EXAMPLE
+    # For pushes - compare against previous commit
+    .\verify_migrations.ps1 -BaseRef HEAD~1
