skill-audit/agent-audit's Step 1 resolved vale-wrap.sh/.vale.ini via
`git rev-parse --show-toplevel`, which returns whichever repo the skill
happens to run in. Inside ai-development that works; in any external repo
that installs kyberforge@holocron as a plugin, it resolves to that repo's
own root, which has no .vale.ini — the prefilter silently fell back to
full LLM judgment. ADR-0013 named this as a deliberately deferred gap.
Vale's config/styles/wrapper now ship inside the plugin itself: a
canonical copy in agent-audit/assets/vale/ (Kyberforge + KyberforgeCopilot,
the superset agent-audit needs) and a smaller duplicate in
skill-audit/assets/vale/ (Kyberforge only) — per the no-cross-skill-path
rule already established for plugin cache-installs. Both skills resolve
these relative to their own directory, same as scripts/validate.sh
already does.
A new root .pre-commit-hooks.yaml exposes both copies plus
skill-size-check so any external repo can enforce the same rules via
`repo: <this-repo-url>, rev: <tag>` in its own pre-commit config,
independent of Claude Code entirely — the same mechanism covers CI. This
repo's own pre-commit hook now consumes the identical plugin-bundled
copies via repo: local (not a third root copy, and not a pinned
self-reference, which would lint working-tree edits against the last
tagged release instead of the change being made). Split into
vale-audit-prefilter-skill/-agent hooks after confirming, by diffing the
full corpus against both old and new config before deleting the old
files, that one combined hook pointed at only one copy silently 0-file-
skips the other file type.
scripts/check-vale-style-sync.sh guards the two copies against drift,
wired at pre-push alongside check-manifests.
ADR: 0014
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.

skill-author and agent-author SKILL.md files received bug fixes (git-log
commit-hash verification before reporting completion, skill-author now
forbids self-spawning audit/recheck subagents during its authoring pass,
and agent-author closed checklist/coverage gaps). Patch bump to reflect
fixed behavior, not new capability.

skill-audit/agent-audit now proactively trigger after a skill/agent
file is hand-edited outside skill-author/agent-author, not just on
explicit request — closing a gap from this session where a fork's
direct edits to agent-author/agent-audit shipped without their own
inline audit until forge was invoked to check afterward.
Also: plugin-author gains a gotcha on claude plugin validate --strict
auto-discovering every .md under agents/ regardless of manifest
declarations (ADR-0010); agent-audit's dimension count and
validate-provenance.sh's --help now match actual behavior.

`claude plugin validate --strict` auto-discovers every .md under a
plugin's agents/ directory as an agent requiring frontmatter, so the
provenance file there always needs fake agent frontmatter to pass
validation. Confirmed empirically that an explicit `agents` manifest
array can't suppress this discovery. Move the file to <plugin-root>/
sources.md instead, and update agent-author/agent-audit accordingly.
Adds ADR-0010, partially superseding ADR-0005's `agents/sources.md`
convention. Fixes#63.

kyberforge gains new forge skill for factory artifact routing; git gains pc-author and pc-run skills moved from kyberforge. Includes version parity fixes in CC manifests (ADR-0016).

Corrects three FAIL findings from the skill-audit run:
- Scope detection table in SKILL.md and references/scripts.md now lists all
four plugin-marker variants the script actually checks (plugin.json,
.claude-plugin/plugin.json, .plugin/plugin.json, .github/plugin/plugin.json)
- assets/README.md copilot.agent.md description was wrong about field set;
replaced with accurate CLI-format description noting excluded cloud/IDE fields
and the Copilot tool aliases actually used.
Also applies the SUGGESTION: moves the conditional reference
(`If the destination is a plugin directory, read references/deployment-modes.md`)
out of the ## Gotchas section body and into ## Route as a standalone line,
immediately after ## Gotchas closes.
INFO findings (source_keys frontmatter) were already present in both
references/README.md and references/scripts.md — no change needed.

## Why
agent-author produces paired agent definition files (Claude Code .md +
Copilot .agent.md) but had no companion audit skill to validate them.
agent-audit fills that gap, giving the same structured PASS/FAIL report
that skill-audit provides for SKILL.md files.
## Implementation Notes
- validate.sh uses scope detection (walk up for plugin.json / .git) to
locate the counterpart file and determine whether plugin-silently-ignored
fields (hooks, mcpServers, permissionMode) should be flagged
- CC-only and silently-ignored field lists are read from
references/field-inventory.md at runtime rather than hardcoded —
provenance back to the research corpus; see ADR-0019
- Single-file invocation (pass either file, counterpart derived) chosen
over directory or name+root — see ADR-0018
- 12 bats tests cover provider detection, scope detection, all FAIL paths,
and clean-pair pass
## Impact
- kyberforge bumped to v1.1.2
- agent-author close step should be updated to reference agent-audit (#11)
- Provenance/sources chain check deferred to #60

## Why
The UPDATE flow only bumped version when the version field itself was the
target. Metadata changes (description, keywords, author) went out without a
version bump, making them invisible to consumers with a cached copy.

## Why
Same gap as skill-author: no instruction to bump the plugin version after
creating or modifying an agent inside a plugin.
Co-authored-by: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
## Why
README "What it does" didn't reflect the plugin version bump step added
to both create and improve flows.
Co-authored-by: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
## Why
The skill had no instruction to bump the catalog version after ADD, REMOVE, or UPDATE operations. Clients cache the marketplace catalog and use the version field to detect changes — without a bump, the new state is invisible until a forced refresh.
## Implementation Notes
Added a Gotcha explaining the rule and semver convention (ADD/REMOVE → minor, UPDATE → patch). Added a dedicated "Bump catalog version" step to each mutating flow. Updated README to match.

## 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.
## Why
Plugin and marketplace management had no governed authoring path. Creating or
updating a plugin required knowing the dual-manifest convention, version parity
rules, and directory skeleton by memory — nothing enforced consistency or guided
the process.
`/plugin-author` closes that gap by owning the full plugin scaffold lifecycle:
create, update, rename, and release. `/marketplace-author` handles the
marketplace-facing side: register, deregister, and update plugin entries in
`marketplace.json`.
ADR-0016 codifies the version parity convention (identical `version` in both
`plugin.json` and `.claude-plugin/plugin.json`) that `/plugin-author` now
enforces. The two plugin.json files in this repo are backfilled to comply
(keys also sorted to pass the pretty-format-json hook). CONTEXT.md gains
glossary entries for "plugin scaffold" and "version parity" so future agents
have shared vocabulary for these concepts.
## Implementation Notes
`/plugin-author` ships a `scripts/new-plugin.sh` scaffold script that generates
the directory skeleton and both manifests in one shot; the skill calls the script
rather than generating files ad hoc so the scaffold is reviewable and repeatable.
Version parity is an invariant, not a suggestion — the skill will fail loudly
on create/update if the two versions would diverge.
ADR: docs/adr/0016-plugin-version-parity.md
Scaffolds the kyberforge marketplace management plugin (create-plugin and
marketplace-architect skills will live here). Renames the plugin-create
skill directory to create-plugin to match the canonical kebab-order convention.
