Neither has a real consumer: Codex is not a supported target, and
mattpocock-skills was the sole remote marketplace.packages[] entry
forcing apm-marketplace-check and apm-pack-check-clean to git
ls-remote on every push. Removing both drops .agents/plugins/marketplace.json
(the codex output artifact) and makes every pre-push hook resolve
fully offline. Updates README, AGENTS.md, gates.md, architecture.md,
and ADR-0015/ADR-0021 to match.

Six pre-push hooks were validating overlapping sets of the same
manifests. check-manifests (marketplace.json/plugin.json path checks)
is redundant with validate-plugins (claude plugin validate) and
apm-pack-check-clean, which already cover the same ground.
Deletes the check-manifests hook entry, scripts/check-manifests.sh
(282 lines), and tests/test-check-manifests.sh (771 lines).
scripts/lib/marketplace-plugins.sh is kept — it is still sourced by
sync-plugin-content.sh. Updates the now-stale check-manifests.sh
mentions and hook counts in README.md and docs/spec/gates.md.
The apm-audit-ci and apm-marketplace-check hooks named in the same
finding are left untouched — the audit flags them as needing a
separate decision.

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: the relocation into gates.md and architecture.md moved text faster than it
verified it, and a review found eight assertions that do not survive contact
with the repo.
- gates.md cited docs/research/examples/, which does not exist; the tree is at
plugins/kyberforge/docs/research/examples/. The same wrong string survives at
ADR-0013:98, where it originated, and is tracked separately.
- gates.md's description-budget arithmetic was built on 23,427, a figure
ADR-0020 measured at f9b919d and pins there, and compared a name-inclusive
total against a description-only ceiling. Dropped rather than re-measured,
following the precedent this branch set for CONTEXT.md's token figure: a
second live copy is a second thing to go stale.
- gates.md listed "every boundary-clause routing target must resolve" as a hard
FAIL. skill-size-check.sh emits unresolved targets as SUGGESTION by default,
promotes to ERROR only when terminal and either route-notated or corroborated
by a resolving target in the same sentence, and reports INFO DID NOT RUN when
no universe resolves. Verified with five fixtures; replaced with a
three-verdict table.
- gates.md and README called `pre-commit run --hook-stage pre-push --all-files`
the whole push gate. check-release-needed.sh exits 0 unless
PRE_COMMIT_REMOTE_BRANCH is refs/heads/main, which only the real git hook
exports -- its own header comment titles this a "Known gap".
- "repo-defined" was loose: the two meta hooks are also declared here, and what
separates them is repo: meta from repo: local.
- architecture.md claimed `when:` appears in two of 39 skill sources. Exactly
one SKILL.md carries it; the second hit is a META.md. The likely origin is
skill-implementation-workflow.md:233, which claims META.md sits alongside
every skill when one exists in the whole tree.
- architecture.md said core/AGENTS.md is "deployed beside" CLAUDE.md.
deploy-manifest.sh sends them to ~/.claude/ and ~/.agents/ respectively; the
relation is import, not adjacency.
- gates.md's see-also cited ADRs as bare stems where its neighbours use paths.
Implementation notes: architecture.md's closing pointer sent readers to the
published description "for what a consumer actually gets", which was true
against an enumeration and is not after ADR-0021. It now names the boundary
relationship and points at the skills tree and README for an inventory. README's
bin bullet gains caveman and zoom-out, since ADR-0021 leaves it the only place
an inventory lives.
Impact: 16/16 pre-push hooks pass. Deliberately not fixed here and tracked
separately: the 12 pre-commit-stage hooks gates.md does not document, its own
SentenceOpenerThereIs violation, and README's missing scripts/install.sh step.

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.
Why: both plugins' published descriptions named capabilities that do not exist
and omitted ones that do. `gitea` advertised wikis — no wiki skill exists and
`grep -ri wiki plugins/gitea/.apm/` is empty — while omitting gitea-branches and
gitea-files. `git` advertised pull requests, which are gitea's, while omitting
pc-author/pc-run, git-submodules and git-workflow. These are compiled into
plugin.json and both marketplace.json files, so they are published metadata, not
internal notes.
This is the same defect bb9158d fixed on `core` in August, so the fix follows
that precedent exactly: correct the package apm.yml and the root marketplace
entry together — fixing only the package manifest leaves it half-propagated,
since the root entry is what reaches the compiled marketplace.
Implementation notes:
- git 1.3.3 -> 1.3.4, gitea 1.3.4 -> 1.3.5, marketplace 0.4.2 -> 0.4.3, all
PATCH for metadata under the per_package strategy at apm.yml:76.
- Regenerated with `apm pack` for the two marketplace manifests and
`scripts/sync-plugin-content.sh --all` for the four per-plugin plugin.json
files; `apm pack` alone does not touch those. `scripts/sync-marketplace-mirror.sh`
refreshed the Copilot legacy mirror, which no apm profile targets.
- README's gitea line mirrors the new published description. The routing
boundaries in architecture.md deliberately do not, since they answer a
different question.
Impact: consumer-facing. Anyone reading the marketplace now sees what these
plugins ship. apm-pack-check-clean, check-plugin-content-sync,
check-marketplace-mirror-sync, validate-marketplace and apm-audit-ci all pass.
Why: the review found architecture.md's plugin table and README's plugin list
were both written by enumerating what happened to be in each plugin, so both
went stale immediately — README credited `git` with pull requests it has no
skill for, and both omitted `pc-author`/`pc-run`. bb9158d fixed this same class
on `core` in August and it recurred here, so the fix is to stop enumerating in
the place whose job is routing.
Implementation notes:
- architecture.md's table now states routing boundaries only, with a note saying
so and pointing at each plugin's published apm.yml description for the actual
inventory. Two boundaries are named explicitly: `core` vs `kyberforge` (kept),
and `git` vs `gitea` — wire protocol against a local clone versus the forge's
HTTP API, which is why git-branches and gitea-branches are not duplicates.
- The `git` row is widened to cover git hook tooling rather than moving
pc-author/pc-run elsewhere. pre-commit manages .git/hooks/, so the placement
was always right and the row was simply under-described.
- README's setup block had a comment where step 2's command should be. It now
carries `pre-commit install -t pre-commit -t commit-msg -t pre-push`, verified
against the three stages in .pre-commit-config.yaml and the three hooks in
.git/hooks/. pc-run is still named, as the option rather than the only path.
- README:11 said each plugin carries agents, hooks and MCP servers. Only
kyberforge ships hooks and only bin ships an MCP server.
- gates.md:30 claimed its hook list was in config order; it is grouped by
concern, which is the better layout, so the claim is corrected to match.
Impact: docs-only. gitea's published description is corrected separately, since
that regenerates consumer-facing manifests.
Why: AGENTS.md is preloaded into every session via CLAUDE.md's @AGENTS.md
import, so every word is a tax paid whether or not it is relevant. It had
grown to 3,371 words (~4,550 tokens), 75% of it a single "Setup and testing"
section that was mostly neither: roughly 1,600 words were gate forensics —
why a hook is shaped the way it is, what was tried and rejected, verification
numbers — and only ~390 words were genuine one-time setup.
Implementation notes: split three ways by audience rather than by heading.
One-time setup, prerequisites and test commands move to a new root README.md,
which did not previously exist. The gate forensics move to a new
docs/spec/gates.md, preserving every constant, hook ID, error string and
tried-and-rejected note (policy.fetch_failure_default, the removed fallback
frontmatter reader, extending skill-size-check's files: pattern to agents,
tidying .claude/settings.json out of the pretty-format-json exclude list) —
these exist to stop settled decisions being re-litigated, so none were
dropped. AGENTS.md keeps only what applies every session, at one clause of
rationale per rule. The .apm/-mirror section collapses to a pointer because
docs/spec/architecture.md already covers it in full. The hot ADR-0020 gate
counts stay in AGENTS.md deliberately: they block any skill edit today.
Also corrects docs/spec/architecture.md's stale claim of 19 ADRs; ADR-0020
landed without updating the count.
Impact: per-session preload drops from ~4,550 to ~1,116 tokens, a 75% cut.
agentsmd-audit passes: secrets clean, drift clean, 4 informational findings
for sections deliberately relocated to the README.
