Why: two blind verifiers re-ran the five preceding commits and found four
defects of the same class this branch exists to close -- a confidently stated
measured claim that does not survive re-measurement -- this time inside the
fixes themselves.
- AGENTS.md:41 still carried both phrasings c68e864 reports having corrected.
`grep -rn repo-defined` returned exactly one hit repo-wide: that line, in the
file every session preloads. 4d336bb edited the line directly above it.
- ADR-0021 asserted twice, in the section justifying that no gate is added,
that the ADR-0020 validators "never open an apm.yml". All three open and
yaml.safe_load it (skill-size-check.sh:342, both validate.sh). The conclusion
survives -- none reads the description: key, and their globs are SKILL.md and
*.agent.md only -- but the stated mechanism is falsified by one grep.
- architecture.md said the ADR directory holds 20 numbered ADRs; c7ba3d2 made
it 21, and c68e864 audited that file for exactly this class of stale count.
The number is dropped rather than corrected: `ls docs/adr/` is already the
index, so a count in prose is a second thing to maintain.
- gates.md's new three-verdict table said `-> name` promotes an unresolved
target to ERROR. Reproduced with fixtures: NAME_HYPH (skill-size-check.sh:543)
requires a hyphen, so `-> gitea-prs` is checked and `-> triage` is not
extracted at all, and the unicode arrow is never recognised. The SUGGESTION
text advises that spelling, so taking its advice can silence the finding. The
gap is now documented as a defect; nothing covers it, since the one arrow case
in test-adr0020-targets.sh happens to use a hyphenated target.
Implementation notes:
- AGENTS.md:48's coverage claim is shrunk rather than chased. Restoring six
glossary entries did not make it true: 12 more sampled terms are undefined,
three of them (trigger/capability/boundary clause) used inside CONTEXT.md
itself. It now says CONTEXT.md is the glossary and is not exhaustive.
- CONTEXT.md's output profile and near-miss entries are corrected against their
sources. The first stated a false exclusion -- .github/plugin/plugin.json IS
apm-generated; only the marketplace mirror has no profile. The second
inverted its source's referent: description-quality.md defines a near-miss as
a query, not a sibling skill.
- The strict-mode message named jq, which no suite guards on (`command -v jq`
appears nowhere in tests/), while omitting python3/PyYAML, which three do.
- README's git and gitea bullets now name git-workflow and gitea-workflow.
ADR-0021 leaves README the only inventory and architecture.md now points at
it, so the two bullets that were short had to be completed.
- ADR-0018's 2026-08-14 correction is marked superseded in place. It asserted
machine state in the present tense that its own 2026-08-17 note retracts.
- ADR-0021's remaining errors: six files -> four (measured from de84d1b), the
wiki description's length 114 -> 96 chars, the codex self-contradiction, the
cost argument overstating bumps already owed for any skill addition, and two
claims about files this branch went on to edit.
- The "15 of 17 suites" figure is restored where I had removed it: it is a dated
record of one incident, not a live count, and four sites now describe it the
same way.
Impact: 16/16 pre-push hooks pass, suite 24 passed 0 skipped 0 failed. No
behaviour change; every edit is prose or a comment.

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.
