fix(kyberforge): bridge apm content to Claude Code's flat plugin discovery

Claude Code's (and Copilot's) native plugin installer has zero awareness of
.apm/ nesting -- it convention-scans only flat skills/, agents/, commands/,
hooks.json at each plugin's root. Confirmed via strings on the installed
claude binary and live installs of git@holocron/gitea@holocron/kyberforge@
holocron, all reporting Skills(0) Agents(0) Hooks(0) post ADR-0015's apm
conversion. Root cause (apm_cli/core/plugin_manifest.py): apm's plugin.json
compiler deliberately strips skills/agents/commands keys, assuming the host
already auto-discovers those convention directories -- it has no model of
.apm/ being host-visible at all. Separately, apm's own bundle exporter
(apm_cli/bundle/plugin_exporter.py, behind `apm pack --format plugin`)
implements the correct .apm/ -> flat mapping, but only ever targeted
build/<name>-<version>/, a path nothing in marketplace.json's source: points
at.

scripts/sync-plugin-content.sh wraps that bundle exporter and copies its
agents/, skills/, commands/, instructions/, extensions/, and merged
hooks.json back into each plugin's own root as a second tracked
compiled-output category -- same governance status as
.claude-plugin/plugin.json: generated from .apm/, never hand-edited. tests/
subdirectories are excluded from the mirror (dev fixtures, not host-visible
runtime content; several hardcode a relative repo-root walk-up sized for the
.apm/-nested depth, which breaks when duplicated one level shallower).
Applied for real across all 6 plugins and verified two ways: `claude plugin
validate --strict` passes on every real plugin directory, and a live
`claude --plugin-dir <path> -p "list skills/agents"` behavioral test
confirms content is now actually discovered.

Also, from the same issue #90 review round:
- scripts/check-manifests.sh pointed at each plugin's root-level plugin.json
  (checking skills/hooks/mcpServers/agents pointer fields) -- that file was a
  stale near-duplicate of .claude-plugin/plugin.json nothing else read or
  wrote, now deleted across all 6 plugins. check-manifests.sh is rewritten to
  validate .claude-plugin/plugin.json instead, and drops the pointer-field
  checks entirely (nothing to check -- those fields are correctly absent by
  design). Content-presence drift is now check-plugin-content-sync's job, a
  new pre-push hook wired in .pre-commit-config.yaml.

docs/adr/0017 records the root cause and decision in full, including two
rejected alternatives (patching plugin.json's path fields directly -- apm's
compiler strips them on every run; pointing marketplace.json at apm pack's
build/ output -- a version-suffixed non-source directory nothing can install
from without an extra build step). ADR-0015 and CONTEXT.md are updated to
point at it.

name: agent-audit
description: >
Use when the user wants to review an agent definition they wrote, says "audit this
agent", "check if my agent follows best practices", "review my agent file", or wants
to know if an agent pair is ready to ship — even if they don't use the word "audit".
Also invoke proactively after directly hand-editing an agent file pair outside
agent-author — an unaudited hand-edit is the same risk as unreviewed code.
Audits a Claude Code .md and Copilot .agent.md agent file pair across six dimensions:
structural validation, provider safety, description quality, body quality, comment
discipline, and pair consistency — plus provenance chain validation. Produces a
compact findings report
(findings only, no PASS noise) with Why and Fix per finding. Do not use to fix agent
files — use /agent-author instead. Do not use to audit SKILL.md files — use
/skill-audit instead.

## Gotchas
- The unit of authoring at project/user scope is always a pair (CC `.md` + Copilot `.agent.md`). A missing counterpart is a FAIL under the kyberforge project convention at those scopes — neither the CC nor the Copilot platform itself requires a counterpart file. Label such findings as project convention violations, not platform spec failures. **At plugin/APM scope there is no pair** — the unit of authoring is a single vendor-neutral `.apm/agents/<name>.agent.md` file, and Pair Consistency does not apply there at all (see below).
- Scope is detected by walking up from the agent file's directory: at each level, if `apm.yml` exists AND contains a top-level `type: instructions|skill|hybrid|prompts` line, that directory is an APM package root — plugin/APM scope. A `type:`-less `apm.yml` is marketplace-only (see `docs/research/docs/microsoft-apm/monorepo-and-repo-shapes.md`) — skip it and keep walking up. Otherwise, if `.git` is a directory at that level, stop there — project scope. If neither is found before the filesystem root, fall back to user scope at `$HOME`. `plugin.json`/`.claude-plugin/plugin.json` are no longer scope signals for this skill — a directory with only a `plugin.json` and no `apm.yml` falls through to project (or user) scope.
- `references/field-inventory.md` must exist for `validate.sh` to run. The script exits with an error if it is missing.
- Do not output findings while auditing — gather internally, surface in Step 3 report.
## Step 1 — Run structural validation
```bash
bash scripts/validate.sh <path-to-agent-file>
bash scripts/validate-provenance.sh <path-to-agent-file>
scripts/vale-wrap.sh <path-to-cc-file> <path-to-copilot-file> # project/user scope
scripts/vale-wrap.sh <path-to-apm-agent-file> # plugin/APM scope — single file
```
The script accepts either the CC file, the Copilot file, or (at plugin/APM scope) the single `.apm/agents/<name>.agent.md` file. It detects provider from extension and scope from the walk-up above, then runs the checks for that scope.
At **project/user scope** it derives the counterpart and runs the existing pair-based checks. Note FAILs and SUGGESTIONs for the `### Structure` and `### Provider safety` report dimensions. Findings about missing fields, bad name format, empty body, or missing frontmatter → `### Structure`. Findings about CC-only fields in a Copilot file, Copilot-only fields in a CC file, body length, or subagent-unavailable tools → `### Provider safety`. A missing counterpart file → `### Pair consistency`.
At **plugin/APM scope** there is no counterpart — the script instead checks the single file's frontmatter against the `apm-agent-allowlist` in `references/field-inventory.md` (`name`, `description`, `model`, `source_keys` — nothing else; `source_keys` is provenance metadata, not a provider-specific field, and is validated separately by `validate-provenance.sh` against `sources.md`). Findings about missing fields, bad name format, name/filename-stem mismatch, empty body, or missing frontmatter → `### Structure`, same as project/user scope. Findings about any field outside the allowlist (e.g. `tools`, or any Claude-only/Copilot-only field carried over from a hand-edit) and body length → `### Provider safety` — but the dimension's meaning shifts here: it is no longer a CC-vs-Copilot field-leakage check, it's a vendor-neutral-field-allowlist check, since `apm compile` verbatim-copies this file's frontmatter to every target and there is no per-target integrator to reconcile a CC-only or Copilot-only field (ADR-0016). `### Pair consistency` never applies at this scope — the script never emits a missing-counterpart FAIL here, because there is nothing to pair by design.
`vale-wrap.sh` ships inside this skill's own `scripts/` — resolve it relative to this skill's directory the same way `scripts/validate.sh` is resolved above, so the invocation works whether this skill is running from this repo or from an installed plugin cache. Pass no `--config`: handed none, the wrapper loads its own sibling `assets/vale/.vale.ini`, located from the script's path rather than from the cwd. Adding an explicit relative `--config` breaks exactly the case the self-location covers — a resolved script path plus an unresolved config path yields `E100 Runtime error ... does not exist`, exit 2, which the fallback below then misreads as "vale unavailable". At project/user scope, run it against both files of the pair (not just the one passed in); at plugin/APM scope, run it against the single file. `Kyberforge` applies to all of these files via the `**/agents/*.md` glob; `KyberforgeCopilot` applies to any `*.agent.md` file — including the plugin/APM-scope file, which already has that extension — via the `**/*.agent.md` glob, since its one rule (`Use proactively`) flags CC-specific phrasing that's meaningless in a vendor-neutral or Copilot description. Every Vale alert is a `FAIL` — all rules are graded `error` — so report each one in the `### Description` / `### Body` dimensions citing its rule ID (e.g. `KyberforgeCopilot.ProactivePhrase`). Skip and fall back to Step 2 judgment if the `vale` binary is unavailable. If Vale reports `0 files` scanned, treat the pass as NOT RUN — not as clean — and fall back to full Step 2 judgment for the dimensions it would have covered.
`validate-provenance.sh` operates at plugin/APM scope only — it walks up from the agent file's directory the same way `validate.sh` does (nearest ancestor `apm.yml` with a top-level `type:` field; skip a `type:`-less marketplace-only `apm.yml`; stop at `.git` or the filesystem root) and exits 0 silently if that walk doesn't land on a package root, or when no provenance data exists. When it does apply, it validates the chain between the single file's own `source_keys` and the package-scoped `sources.md` (package root — see ADR-0010). Note FAILs from this script for the `### Provenance` dimension — surface them verbatim with Why and Fix.
If the scripts cannot run (Bash denied, python3 unavailable), perform checks manually. At project/user scope: counterpart file exists, required fields present (`name`, `description`, non-empty body), `name` is kebab-case, Copilot CLI `.agent.md` `name` must match filename stem (CC files are exempt — the CC platform does not require name to match filename), no `FILL IN:` placeholders, no CC-only fields in Copilot file, no Copilot-only fields in CC file (read `references/field-inventory.md` for the authoritative field lists). At plugin/APM scope: required fields present (`name`, `description`, non-empty body), `name` is kebab-case and matches the filename stem, no `FILL IN:` placeholders, no frontmatter field outside `name`/`description`/`model`/`source_keys` (read the `apm-agent-allowlist` section of `references/field-inventory.md`; `source_keys` carries provenance metadata, checked separately by `validate-provenance.sh` against `sources.md`).
## Step 2 — Qualitative checks
Read both agent files. Work through each dimension internally. Collect findings only; report in Step 3.
**Description (both files):**
- Action-verb opening: description starts with a verb ("Reviews...", "Analyzes...", "Generates...") — FAIL if absent. Vale's `Kyberforge.DescriptionOpener` alert flags the specific known-bad "This agent..." opener directly; verifying an arbitrary opening word is genuinely a strong verb still requires judgment.
- Specificity: is the trigger condition stated precisely? — SUGGESTION if vague. Vale's `Kyberforge.VagueWording` alert covers known filler ("helps with", "utilize", ...) directly; report those as FAILs without re-deriving by judgment.
- `Use proactively` in a Copilot description: Vale's `KyberforgeCopilot.ProactivePhrase` alert (Copilot file only) flags this directly — report it without re-deriving by judgment.
If a description finding is borderline, read `references/description-quality.md`.
**Body:**
- Direct role instruction: system prompt opens with `You are a [role]. When invoked, [action].` — SUGGESTION if absent
- One job per agent: system prompt describes a single bounded task — SUGGESTION if scope appears unbounded
- Generic, non-specific reference pointers to the `references/` directory: Vale's `Kyberforge.PaddingPhrase` alert flags this directly — report it without re-deriving by judgment
- Sentences that open with "There is"/"There are": Vale's `Kyberforge.SentenceOpenerThereIs` alert flags this directly — report it without re-deriving by judgment
**Body/Frontmatter comments:**
- Inspect each comment block in the YAML frontmatter. For each comment, apply: *"Would the agent get this wrong without this comment?"* Flag any that answer "no" as padding.
- Look for patterns like `# Optional. <long explanation>` or extensive inline guidance (more than 1–2 lines per field) that should be condensed or removed before shipping.
- This mirrors skill-audit's body-discipline check but applies to template documentation in the frontmatter — template guidance belongs in development; agent-ready files should have minimal comments.
**Pair consistency (cross-file) — project/user scope only:**
- Both files exist — FAIL if counterpart is missing (kyberforge project convention; not a platform requirement from either CC or Copilot — label as such)
- The following checks are covered automatically by `validate.sh`; apply them manually only when the script cannot run: both system prompt bodies non-empty — FAIL if either is empty
- **Does not apply at plugin/APM scope** — there is only one file, by design; do not raise a Pair Consistency finding there under any circumstance.
**Unexpressable Claude-only behavior — plugin/APM scope only:**
- Read the description and body. If either implies a need the vendor-neutral frontmatter can no longer express — tool restriction, `isolation`, `memory`, or another Claude-only behavior that a hand-authored CC file could have declared — flag it as a SUGGESTION, never a FAIL. This is a known upstream schema limitation (APM's agent primitive has no per-target compile integrator, so `tools:`/`isolation`/etc. can't be emitted safely to both CC and Copilot — ADR-0016), not an authoring mistake. The finding exists to give the author visibility into the gap, not to imply the schema can be made to do something it can't.
- Example: a body that says "only use Read and Grep, never Edit" but the frontmatter has no `tools` field to enforce it — SUGGESTION, not FAIL.
## Step 3 — Report
Open with a coverage line. At project/user scope:
```text
Checked: structure · provider-safety · description · body · comment-discipline · pair-consistency · provenance
```
At plugin/APM scope, omit `pair-consistency` — it does not apply when there is no pair:
```text
Checked: structure · provider-safety · description · body · comment-discipline · provenance
```
Then output only dimensions that have findings, grouped under H3 headings, FAILs before SUGGESTIONs within each dimension. Omit clean dimensions entirely. `### Provenance` findings are sourced verbatim from `validate-provenance.sh` output — copy them without rephrasing.
For each finding:
```text
FAIL/SUGGESTION <finding> — file:line
Why: <why this is a problem>
Fix: <exact change — quote before/after where applicable>
```
Close with:
```text
## Result
PASS
PASS · P info
PASS (N suggestions)
PASS (N suggestions) · P info
FAIL (N fails · M suggestions)
FAIL (N fails · M suggestions) · P info
Run /agent-author to address findings.
```
Omit `Run /agent-author to address findings.` when there are no findings at all. Do not apply fixes — report and propose only.
