Regenerates `plugins/*/skills`, `plugins/*/agents`, both per-plugin `plugin.json` manifests and the
two marketplace mirrors from `.apm/` per ADR-0017, via `scripts/sync-plugin-content.sh --all`.
The manifests matter beyond tidiness here: `plugin.json` carries the plugin version and wins over
the marketplace entry at install time (calculatePluginVersion precedence). Until this ran, the patch
bumps in the preceding commit were inert for anyone installing these plugins.

Retrofits all 39 skills to ADR-0020's description/body context contract, then fixes what six rounds of independent review found in that retrofit — including four ways the hot gate itself failed open.
Closes#99, #107, #108, #110, #111, #114, #115, #120.
## The retrofit (waves 1-5)
| | Start | Now |
|---|---|---|
| Description FAILs (>400 chars) | 26 | **0** |
| Body FAILs (>900 words, body-only) | 9 | **0** |
| Dangling routing targets | 2 | **0** |
| `Kyberforge.CompositionNote` | 10 | **0** |
| Preload tax | 21,005 chars | **~10,500** |
Under the 12,000-char success criterion. Per-wave detail is on #99.
## The review fixes
**The gate failed open four ways, three of them found after the retrofit shipped.** An unrecognised follower token made a dangling target vanish. A skill directory with no `SKILL.md` resolved as a valid target, so a commit could be green locally and red in a fresh clone — three existing fixtures were relying on that, one of which made the install-leak A/B pass vacuously. Then the free-standing `/name` sweep turned out to be gated on the sentence carrying a boundary marker, so route notation in any other sentence was invisible — not an ERROR, not a SUGGESTION, not an INFO — which left the documented "`/name` always blocks" promise false from a second direction. All four fixed and pinned.
**Two checks were silently not running.** `validate-provenance.sh` checks 7-8 were dead across nine skills. Waking them exposed a deeper problem: they assume `Research doc:` names a source index, but 30 of 121 entries point at topic content documents, so every new check-7 INFO was a false positive and check 8 was saved from a false-FAIL flood only by an *unannounced* skip. Checks 7/8 are now scoped to source indexes and every skip announces itself (#121).
**The retrofit's own anti-goal, four times.** ADR-0020 warns that a blunt gate gets satisfied by deleting content rather than relocating it. `diagnose` and `skill-audit` relocated prose and then read it unconditionally; `prototype` and `vale-config` deleted rules outright that survived nowhere. All four addressed.
## Verification
- `bash tests/run-tests.sh --strict` — 24 suites, 0 skipped, 0 failed
- `bash tests/run-bats.sh` — 325 tests, 0 failures
- `pre-commit run --all-files` — 17/17
- `pre-commit run --hook-stage pre-push --all-files` — 16/16, with `apm marketplace check` and `apm pack --check-clean` run against the remote, not skipped
- `scripts/skill-size-check.sh` over all 39 skills — rc 0, 0 ERROR/FAIL, SUGGESTION-only
- Preload tax measured at **10,498 chars**, max description 390 — both inside budget
- Every new test proven non-vacuous by a deliberate mutation of the behaviour it covers
**Per-commit sync, stated accurately:** the ten commits from the latest review round each pass `check-plugin-content-sync` in isolation, verified by checking each out in a detached worktree with a clean between. The earlier gitea window (`dfacf05..bedbd1d`, nine commits) does **not** — its mirror was regenerated in one batch at `bbc7300`. An earlier revision of this description claimed the property held for every commit; it does not, and a bisect through that window lands on a red commit. **Squash-merge** to collapse it, or accept that this range is not bisectable.
## Version bump
Six plugins and the catalog take a **patch**, not a minor. The branch is **89 commits — 40 `fix` / 30 `refactor` / 12 `docs` / 5 `chore` / 2 `test` — zero `feat`, zero `!`, zero `BREAKING CHANGE`** — and adds no skill, agent, command or hook. (Two earlier revisions of this section cited a stale histogram, most recently 78 commits; the figures above are measured at HEAD.) Both rules this repo ships (`forge/references/version-bump.md`, landing in this PR, and `git-commits/references/conventional-commits-spec.md`) make that a patch, and the catalog set is unchanged at 7 entries.
Not settled by that: four published files were removed from the installed tree, three moved, and `caveman` gained `disable-model-invocation`, retiring its old triggers. Under a strict reading those are major-class and currently ship under `refactor:` with no marker. Whether the deployed skill surface is a public contract is written down nowhere — worth deciding, but it outlives this PR.
## Deliberately not in scope
#112 (cherry-pick ownership, now resolved in favour of `git-commits`), #113 (`rtk git` normalisation), #116 (research fan-out), #101 (audit-skill merge), #122 (non-spec skill-root files), #123 (no PRD producer) stay open. #117 is the one worth reading: the contract's remedy is to move prose into `references/`, which is exactly where neither the size gate nor Vale looks — and the blind spot is wider than #117 currently records, since there is no root `.vale.ini` at all, so every ADR, `CONTEXT.md` and `README.md` is unlinted too.
That blind spot let this branch carry two `level: error` `Kyberforge.SentenceOpenerThereIs` violations into `references/` files it created — `provider-adapter-author/references/provider-matrix.md:31` and `agent-audit/references/finding-criteria.md:95`. Both are reworded in `afadaae`, confirmed by routing each file through the audit's own `vale-wrap.sh` (1 error each before, 0 after). Five further occurrences sit in `references/` files already on `main`; those are the pre-existing corpus and stay with #117, which is the real fix.
Also unfixed and not this PR's: `apm install` appends a duplicate `SessionStart` entry to `.claude/settings.json`, so a fresh clone cannot get pre-push green without an edit AGENTS.md warns against. Reproduces identically on `main`.

Why: enumerating a plugin's skills in its published description has now failed
three times in four days, the third time inside the correction for the second.
bb9158d (Aug 14) fixed core's description, which described bin's skills. That
failure was wrong content, not an incomplete list -- a syntactically perfect
four-item enumeration that belonged to a different plugin -- so enumerating
harder could not have caught it, and bb9158d's own fix replaced the enumeration
with a domain boundary. 65bac15 and de84d1b then cited that precedent while
doing the opposite, and the re-enumeration is itself incomplete: caveman and
zoom-out are unnamed in bin, git-workflow is unnamed in git despite 65bac15's
message claiming it was added, and gitea-workflow is unnamed in gitea. 23 of 27
skills named at the third attempt.
Nothing checks any of this. check-manifests.sh does not contain the string
"description"; apm audit --ci, apm pack --check-clean and
sync-plugin-content.sh --check all compare compiled output against apm.yml, so
their job is to propagate whatever it says byte-for-byte. The wiki claim passed
all fourteen pre-push hooks every day it was published. Enumeration also makes a
marketplace release the consequence of a directory appearing.
Implementation notes:
- ADR-0021 records the decision, the three failures, and why no gate is added:
the check is one-directional, cannot see an invented capability, and a
correspondence map would relocate the same per-skill maintenance one file over.
- bin 1.1.4 -> 1.1.5, git 1.3.4 -> 1.3.5, gitea 1.3.5 -> 1.3.6,
marketplace.version 0.4.4 -> 0.4.5, all PATCH under per_package.
- apm.yml's top-level version: is restored to lockstep at 0.4.5. It has moved
with marketplace.version in all eleven commits that ever touched the file
until this branch left it at 0.4.2, and apm.yml's own comment records it as
live and consumed by apm audit.
- git's boundary names the pre-commit hooks explicitly: pc-author and pc-run are
not git operations, and a boundary drawn narrower than the contents is the
same defect one level up.
- Regenerated with apm pack for the marketplace manifests and
sync-plugin-content.sh --all for the per-plugin ones; both mirrors verified
byte-identical.
Impact: consumer-facing. 16/16 pre-push hooks pass, suite green, generated diff
is 26 insertions and 26 deletions across 8 files with no incidental churn.

Why: bin's marketplace description read "A place for things to be binned" — a
routing boundary sitting in the enumeration slot, phrased as a joke. It is what
a consumer sees in the marketplace listing for a plugin shipping eleven
substantive skills: research, write-docs, tdd, prototype, triage, diagnose,
improve-codebase-architecture, grill-me, grill-with-docs, zoom-out and caveman.
This is the same category error b0ef503 fixed for git and gitea, and the same
text bb9158d moved out of core's description in August — "triage, diagnosis,
architecture review" left core precisely because those skills live in bin, so
bin is where it should have landed.
Implementation notes: bin 1.1.3 -> 1.1.4, marketplace 0.4.3 -> 0.4.4, PATCH for
metadata under the per_package strategy. README's bin line mirrors the new
description. architecture.md's routing boundary is deliberately left as
"unsorted skills that have not earned a home yet" — that is still true, and it
answers a different question than the listing does.
Impact: consumer-facing. apm-pack-check-clean, check-plugin-content-sync,
check-marketplace-mirror-sync, validate-marketplace, validate-plugins and
apm-audit-ci all pass.
plugins/bin/.mcp.json declared the obsidian server as
`npx @bitbonsai/mcpvault@latest`, so an unpinned third-party npm package
was fetched and executed at every session start. The apm-consumed install
promoted that string to committed repo-root content in .mcp.json, giving
every clone the same unpinned execution. Pinned to 0.15.0, the version
`latest` currently resolves to.
bin 1.1.2 -> 1.1.3 and marketplace 0.4.0 -> 0.4.1, following the mapping
bb9158d establishes and 3bfdf58 confirms: the marketplace takes the same
bump severity as the highest-severity package bump. kyberforge is not
bumped here, so executables.allow's `kyberforge#1.5.0` key is untouched.
The pin is not live for this working copy until this lands on the remote
and `apm update` re-resolves — apm.lock.yaml still records 1.1.2 and
`@latest`, because the six dependencies resolve from the remote rather
than from the tree beside them. Correct for a fresh clone immediately.
.gitignore gains /.claude-plugin/plugin.json: a bare `apm pack` emits a
root-package manifest there that has never been tracked on any branch.
Scoped to the file, since the sibling marketplace.json is compiled output
that is committed.

Output of apm pack, sync-plugin-content.sh --all and
sync-marketplace-mirror.sh against this round's source changes. No file here
is hand-edited.
Carries the version bumps and marketplace owner.email into the compiled
manifests, the disallowedTools frontmatter and doc corrections into the flat
mirrors, and changes plugins/bin/.github/plugin/plugin.json's mcpServers from
the inlined server object to the ".mcp.json" pointer. That last file also
returns to 0644: the previous re-injection wrote it through mktemp and carried
0600 across, which no gate could see because the mode check did not cover
.github/plugin/ and git tracks only the exec bit.
.agents/plugins/marketplace.json is unchanged and that is correct -- apm's
codex profile carries neither version nor owner keys, so nothing in this round
reaches it.

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
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.

The round-3 fixes changed shipped skill content in three plugins without
touching their manifests, so installed copies would keep serving the old
content from cache. plugin-author requires a patch bump for exactly this
reason: consumers use the version to detect changes.
It matters most for lint — anyone installed at 1.1.2 has a cached
vale-run/SKILL.md stating that Vale exits non-zero on warnings, which is
backwards and would lead them to build a gate that passes everything.
- bin 1.1.0 -> 1.1.1 (caveman: suppression comments removed)
- kyberforge 1.2.3 -> 1.2.4 (skill-audit/agent-audit: Vale step reworked)
- lint 1.1.2 -> 1.1.3 (vale-run: exit-code and suppression-syntax fixes)
Marketplace entries carry no per-plugin version, so both marketplace.json
files are unchanged.

plugins/bin loses a whole skill (gitea removed) — minor bump (1.0.5 ->
1.1.0) to reflect the capability-surface change. plugins/gitea gains a
reference file and a README fix, no new capability — patch bump
(1.3.1 -> 1.3.2).

The gotcha claimed Gitea never auto-closes issues on merge. Confirmed
empirically (issue #63 / PR #64) that a regular merge preserving an
original commit's closing keyword does auto-close — only squash merges
(this skill's default) are unreliable. Also drops search_issues from
allowed-tools since no dispatch route calls it.

## Why
The Obsidian MCP server config was living at the repo root, making it
a repo-level concern rather than part of the plugin it belongs to.
Moving it into plugins/bin/ means the plugin is self-contained and the
server travels with it on install.
## Implementation Notes
mcpServers is declared in the Copilot manifest (plugin.json) because
Copilot requires explicit path declarations. CC auto-discovers .mcp.json
from the plugin root so no change to the CC manifest is needed.
Bumps version to 1.0.3 in both manifests.

## Why
Version sync across all plugin manifest locations so the CC plugin loader,
the .github marketplace mirror, and the canonical plugin.json files all
report the same version.
## Impact
Consumers fetching the plugin via the marketplace will see the updated
version entry.
Skills and evals migrated from .agents/ to plugins/bin/ plugin directory.
Remove .mcp.json, provider-manifest.sh, and skills-lock.json legacy artifacts.
