Documentation asserted things the code no longer did, which is how several of this
round's defects survived three review passes.
- `docs/spec/architecture.md` still described the pre-APM model — "each plugin has a
`plugin.json` manifest" — when no such file exists. AGENTS.md routes agents here
for the current structure, so it was live drift, not archive. Also cited ADR-0012
where ADR-0003 is meant.
- AGENTS.md never said `.apm/` is the sole hand-edited source, while the generated
mirror is byte-identical with no marker — an agent reading only AGENTS.md would
edit the mirror and find out at pre-push. It also omitted that `apm` and `jq` are
now required to push, unlike the `vale` bullet that exists for exactly that reason,
and understated the pre-push gate. `apm marketplace check` hard-fails offline and
`--offline` does not help, so the `SKIP=` escape hatch is documented rather than
new machinery built.
- ADR-0017 carried hardcoded line numbers that drifted twice within one PR, and said
`mcpServers` reinjection was real-syncs-only where the script's own header says
both modes. Line numbers dropped rather than corrected.
- ADR-0015 asserted issue #90 was closed. It is open. Reworded to defer to the
issue's own state rather than depend on someone remembering to close it.
- ADR-0014 said both audit skills pass `--config`; both SKILL.md files say pass none,
and passing one fails with E100. The ADR was wrong.
- ADR-0007 cross-referenced an archived ADR-0011 whose number was later reused.
Disambiguated with a note — renumbering a published ADR rewrites an immutable
record and breaks every existing citation.
- CONTEXT.md claimed `lint-runner` is report-only via a missing `Edit` tool.
Plugin-scope APM agents cannot express `tools:` (ADR-0016), so it is report-only by
instruction now; ADR-0016 accepted that regression but CONTEXT.md was not updated.
- Recorded two undocumented consequences of the conversion: `displayName` dropped
from all six compiled manifests and `owner.email` from the marketplace, and
`mattpocock-skills` silently version-pinned and manually maintained.
- Wrote the version-bump policy issue #90 specified but never delivered. Its previous
carrier, `marketplace-author`, was deleted in this PR, leaving the per-package rule
documented nowhere.
- README fixes: kyberforge listed skills belonging to the `git` plugin and a deleted
hooks path, `bin` advertised an agents directory it never had, and the docs index
listed files that do not exist.

`core`'s description and keywords described `bin`'s skills — triage, diagnosis,
architecture review — while `core` ships the three agentsmd/provider-adapter skills.
Pre-existing text, but this PR compiles it into `plugin.json` and both
`marketplace.json` files, so it became published metadata. The root `apm.yml` entry
carried the same stale text and is the one that actually reaches the marketplace
manifests, so fixing only the package manifest left it half-propagated.
Version bumps follow the per_package policy this PR documents, each landing in both
the package `apm.yml` and the root entry: kyberforge 1.4.0 -> 1.4.1 for the
reference-doc changes, core 1.1.0 -> 1.1.1 for the metadata, catalog 0.3.2 -> 0.3.3
as a marketplace-block-only edit.
The compiled diff is larger than those four changes because the manifests committed
at HEAD were not apm output: `json.dumps(indent=2, sort_keys=True)` reproduces all
three byte-for-byte, i.e. `pretty-format-json --autofix` had rewritten them before
the exclusion existed. Regenerating realigns them to genuine `apm pack` output;
the remainder of the diff is key ordering and UTF-8 escaping. `core`'s keyword
change is a fifth semantic change, invisible at marketplace level because
`marketplace.json` carries no keywords field.

--check's throwaway pack copy seeded .claude-plugin/plugin.json and
.github/plugin/plugin.json from the real plugin dir, then packed without
--force -- apm pack silently skips regenerating a plugin.json that already
exists, so the diff always compared the copy against itself and never caught
drift in the compiled name/version/description/mcpServers. --force is now
always passed; in check mode it forces regeneration inside the throwaway copy
only, which sync_plugin_manifest() then diffs against the real committed
manifest.
sync_hooks_json() returned early whenever .apm/hooks/ was missing, without
checking whether a stale hooks.json was still sitting at the plugin root from
a prior sync -- unlike sync_dir(), which already detects that kind of orphaned
mirrored output. It now mirrors sync_dir()'s shape: flagged as drift in
--check, removed on a real sync.
Running the corrected --check --all against this repo's own plugins surfaced
3 real orphans: plugins/{git,gitea,core}/hooks.json, empty stubs added in
4edaaac only to satisfy an old plugin.json pointer-field check that no longer
exists (their compiled plugin.json has never had a hooks field, and none of
the three ever had .apm/hooks/). Removed as part of this fix since they're
exactly the drift the corrected check now catches -- leaving them would break
the sync-plugin-content pre-push gate on this branch.
Also extracts two shared helpers into scripts/lib/, sourced by this script and
others so a future bug fix doesn't need hand-applying three times:
- marketplace-plugins.sh: walks marketplace.json for local plugin dirs (this
script's --all branch and check-manifests.sh had near-identical copies)
- batch-run.sh: the bounded-batch concurrent job runner (this script,
tests/run-tests.sh, and tests/run-bats.sh each hand-rolled the same
core-count-capped wait loop independently)
Extended tests/test-sync-plugin-content.sh with coverage for both drift cases
(plugin.json version-bump drift, orphaned-hooks.json drift), including that a
re-sync clears each.

validate-secrets.sh checked the placeholder allowlist regex against the
whole line before running any secret-pattern regex. An unrelated
placeholder-looking token anywhere on the line (e.g. "example" or
"your-token-here" in a trailing comment) suppressed detection of a real
credential earlier on the same line. Scope the allowlist check to the
matched secret-candidate substring only, which the per-match re-check
already did downstream but the whole-line pre-check short-circuited
before it ever ran.
Extend validate-secrets.bats with a case proving a real AWS-style key is
still caught when a placeholder token sits elsewhere on the line.
Regenerate the flat-mirror copy at
plugins/core/skills/agentsmd-audit/scripts/validate-secrets.sh via
scripts/sync-plugin-content.sh --all per ADR-0016.
bin and kyberforge had empty keywords: [], and no plugin set homepage or
repository despite the schema supporting both and the repo having one
canonical Gitea remote -- flagged by an apm-docs-vs-repo audit following
issue #90's plugin->apm conversion.
Compiled .claude-plugin/plugin.json and .github/plugin/plugin.json were
regenerated via scripts/sync-plugin-content.sh to carry the new fields.
Refs: #90
apm pack silently skips regenerating plugin.json when it already exists
("already exists; skipping plugin.json generation. Re-run with --force to
overwrite it."). sync-plugin-content.sh never passed --force, so
.claude-plugin/plugin.json and .github/plugin/plugin.json were written
once on first sync and never refreshed again -- a name/version/description
edit in a plugin's apm.yml would silently stop propagating, with no gate
catching it (check-manifests.sh only checks presence; check-plugin-content-
sync explicitly excludes plugin.json; apm-pack-check-clean is scoped to
marketplace.json only).
Pass --force on real-mode syncs only (--check must not mutate the plugin
root, so plugin.json staleness there stays a known, undetected gap until
the next real sync -- documented in the script's header comment).
Regenerating surfaced a second, unrelated bug: apm's writer and
pretty-format-json's --autofix disagree on JSON key order (semantic vs.
alphabetical), so every real sync would otherwise flip plugin.json's key
order right back after a commit re-alphabetized it. Excluded the four
apm-generated manifests (plugin.json x2, marketplace.json x2) from
pretty-format-json -- their exact formatting is dictated by apm's own
writer as compiled output, not this repo's generic JSON prettifier.
Verified idempotent: a second real sync after this fix produces zero
further diff.
Refs: #90
Uncomment marketplace.outputs.codex in apm.yml. Codex output requires
every package to declare a category -- added one per package (Developer
Tools / Utilities / Version Control / Productivity, matching each
plugin's actual scope).
Re-running apm pack after enabling codex auto-synced 'codex' into each
local package's own targets: list (apm.yml, per plugin) -- packages
belonging to a marketplace that publishes a codex output need to declare
codex as a supported compile target for that to be coherent. Verified
idempotent: a second apm pack --check-clean run makes no further changes.
.claude-plugin/marketplace.json regenerated (now carries category per
plugin); .agents/plugins/marketplace.json is the new codex artifact.
Refs: #90
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.
Refs: #90
Why:
ADR-0015 established that Microsoft APM (apm.yml + .apm/) should replace
this repo's hand-authored plugin.json/marketplace.json model, with those
files becoming compiled output of `apm pack` instead of files edited by
hand via the (now-retired) plugin-author/marketplace-author skills.
Issue #90 was the deferred execution of that decision, gated on #88
(apm tooling) and #89 (apm-native agent-author/skill-author routing).
Implementation notes:
- All six plugins (bin, core, git, gitea, kyberforge, lint) now carry
apm.yml + .apm/{skills,agents,hooks} as their authoring source. Skills
moved with a plain git mv (content-identical across targets). Agents
were re-authored, not moved: per ADR-0016, .apm/agents/*.agent.md
compiles verbatim to both Claude and Copilot, so plugin-scope agents
now carry only name/description/model/source_keys -- no tools: field,
no Claude-only knobs (isolation, maxTurns, effort, memory,
permissionMode).
- Root apm.yml registers all 7 marketplace packages (6 local plus
mattpocock-skills as a remote entry) under versioning: per_package,
matching this repo's existing independent-plugin-versioning practice.
- .claude-plugin/marketplace.json and every plugin's plugin.json are now
apm-pack-compiled output, verified against the prior hand-maintained
content: same names/descriptions/versions/licenses/authors, only
cosmetic serialization differences (JSON key order, owner email vs.
url, Unicode escaping).
- plugin-author and marketplace-author are retired now that apm-based
authoring fully replaces their job; kyberforge bumped 1.3.1 -> 1.4.0
for that removal, and the root marketplace catalog bumped
0.3.1 -> 0.3.2 to match, per the version-bump convention now
documented in apm-workflow's reference docs instead of a dedicated
script (apm has no native version-bump automation).
- Fixed hardcoded pre-.apm/ path assumptions across
.pre-commit-config.yaml, .pre-commit-hooks.yaml,
scripts/check-scope-walkup-sync.sh, scripts/sync-vale-styles.sh,
scripts/check-vale-style-sync.sh, six plugins' root plugin.json
(stale skills/hooks/agents pointer fields that check-manifests.sh
validates), and several tests/*.bats and tests/*.sh fixtures --
including a bats REPO_ROOT relative-path depth bug (10 files, one
extra .apm/ directory level to walk up) and a vale probe-path
isolation regression introduced mid-fix.
- Corrected empirically-wrong assumptions surfaced this session in
apm-workflow/apm-install's own reference docs: `apm marketplace
package add` does not accept local paths (only owner/repo remote
shorthand -- local packages are registered by editing apm.yml's
marketplace.packages[] directly); `apm compile` is a consumer-side
AGENTS.md/CLAUDE.md generator, not the plugin.json producer, and
hard-fails on skill/agent-only packages without --clean; `apm plugin
init <name>` nests a stray subdirectory when run with a positional
name arg from inside a same-named directory; no native Copilot
marketplace output profile exists; .mcp.json is merged into the
compiled plugin.json content-aware and target-scoped, with no
dependencies.mcp entry needed for simple passthrough; pipx is the
correct pip fallback on externally-managed Python environments.
- Renamed agent-author's copilot.agent.md template asset to
copilot.agent.md.template so apm compile's recursive *.agent.md glob
stops misparsing the placeholder template as a real agent primitive.
Impact:
plugin.json and marketplace.json are compiled artifacts from here on --
editing them by hand is no longer the workflow; edit apm.yml/.apm/ and
run apm pack. CONTEXT.md's Plugin/Plugin marketplace glossary entries
reflect this. ADR-0001 is marked superseded, ADR-0006 moot, and
ADR-0010 updated for the new .apm/agents/ path (project/user scope
unaffected, per ADR-0016). Full local verification: claude plugin
validate --strict on all 6 plugins, apm audit --ci, apm marketplace
check, check-manifests.sh, and the full test suite (165/165 bats,
13/13 shell scripts) all pass clean.

PR review feedback: Step 3 gave no concrete guidance on what good
AGENTS.md content looks like, and the skill had no substantive
references file (only provenance bookkeeping in sources.md), unlike
sibling kyberforge skills. Adds section-by-section content guidance,

core gained three skills for the first time (agentsmd-author,
agentsmd-audit, provider-adapter-author). Minor bump reflects new
capability rather than a fix. Also declares the missing `skills`
path in the Copilot manifest so Copilot CLI discovers them
(CC auto-discovers from the plugin root; Copilot requires explicit
declaration per ADR-0016 convention).

Creates/updates a target repo's AGENTS.md by exploring real repo
conventions, supports nested monorepo placement, closes out via
agentsmd-audit, and composes into provider-adapter-author for
provider-file reconciliation. Completes the three-skill trio from
ADR-0012.
Converts a target repo's provider-specific instruction file (CLAUDE.md,
.cursor/rules, copilot-instructions.md, etc.) into a thin adapter over
AGENTS.md, mirroring this repo's own two-tier CLAUDE.md pattern
(ADR-0002/0003). Self-validates via a bundled deterministic script
(scripts/validate-adapter.sh) rather than a separate paired audit skill.

Independent clean-context audit recheck flagged that README.md's file
table omitted scripts/README.md and tests/README.md despite both
existing on disk, inconsistent with sibling kyberforge skills.
The previous commit only landed the research-folder rename — a multi-path
git add silently failed and left CONTEXT.md, ADR-0012, and the actual skill
files unstaged. This lands them: the agentsmd-audit skill itself (three
deterministic validators for secrets, structure, and drift against a target
repo's AGENTS.md), its bats test suite, provenance record, and the
CONTEXT.md/ADR entries documenting why this lives in core rather than
kyberforge.

Audits a target repo's AGENTS.md file(s) for embedded secrets, structural
completeness against the agents.md common-sections checklist, and drift
(referenced commands/paths that no longer resolve). First active skill in
the core plugin — kyberforge is scoped to marketplace-factory meta-tooling,
not generic target-repo documentation (see ADR-0012). Moves the agentsmd
research corpus from plugins/kyberforge to plugins/core to match.

scripts/install.sh hardcoded $REPO_ROOT/.git/hooks, which breaks under any
git worktree checkout (.git is a file there, not a directory) — this is
what blocks every worktree-based agent from pushing cleanly. Resolve the
hooks directory via `git rev-parse --git-path hooks` instead, normalizing
to an absolute path since git returns it relative to the queried repo root
for plain checkouts but absolute for worktrees.
Also drops `agents`/`skills` fields from plugins/bin, plugins/core, and
plugins/gitea plugin.json where the referenced directories don't exist on
main yet (bin never had an agents/ dir; core and gitea's real skill/agent
content is still pending merge from an in-flight branch) — these were
failing scripts/check-manifests.sh and blocking pushes for unrelated work.
