Gotcha 1 said a style in BasedOnStyles that is not built-in and not
already under StylesPath "finds nothing until vale sync fetches it — a
clean run is not proof anything linted". Reproduced against vale 3.15.2:
that case is a hard `E100 [loadStyles] style '<name>' does not exist on
StylesPath`, exit 2. Nothing is linted and nothing is silent.
Worse, the same commit deleted the Gotcha that was the actual diagnostic —
that Packages and BasedOnStyles are separate keys and a style lints only
once it is in both. So the surviving rule sent a reader staring at E100 to
run `vale sync`, which fetches only what Packages declares and reports
"Synced 0 package(s)" against a BasedOnStyles-only name. The remediation
loop did not terminate. Reproduced end to end.
The genuinely silent case is the reverse — declared in Packages and
synced, but absent from BasedOnStyles — and it is now the one labelled as
such. Testing also turned up that StylesPath must exist as a directory
even when Vale is the only style (E201, exit 2), which was documented
nowhere.
references/configuration-reference.md gains a seven-row resolution matrix,
each row backed by a fixture. Its Frontmatter Scopes section claimed
provenance from the vale.sh research corpus, which contains no frontmatter
material at all; it is house-verified and now says so under its own slug.
Issue #99's wave-3 comment recorded this defect as found and repaired. It
was not — the file was byte-identical to the commit that introduced it, so
nothing here was treated as already correct.
Refs #99
Description 654 -> 294 chars, Gotchas 36% -> 19%. Body 698 -> 642 words:
up from the first pass, because a clean-context audit found four defects
whose fixes are net-additive text.
The suppression-markup warning covered only one of the two paths that
write it -- the list is case-based, so a recurring false positive goes
straight to step 3 and never read step 2's warning. Hoisted above both.
The CI-failure trigger, which the description advertises, had no path to
the file holding its answer: the negative diagnosis 'if the alerts are
warnings, Vale is not what failed the build' survived only in
troubleshooting.md, which no CI-entered invocation loads. An agent would
confidently prescribe --no-exit for a failure Vale never caused.
The description had lost every prose-domain word -- no 'prose', no
'linter' -- while vale-config kept all of them, so 'check prose style'
routed to the wrong skill of the pair.
Accepts two soft SUGGESTIONs rather than dropping restored content;
neither fails the gate.
Refs #99
Description 657 -> 244 chars, body 504 -> 342 words, Gotchas 50% -> 24%.
The 50% was the worst ratio in the corpus and a real inverted body, not
the denominator artefact the ratio usually flags: half the body was a
Gotchas section doing duty as reference material.
A clean-context audit caught the split leaving a false statement behind.
Gotcha 1's kernel lost the qualifier that only package styles need
fetching, so it asserted that any style vale sync has not fetched fails
-- contradicting the same file twice, since the built-in Vale style and
any committed custom style are never fetched. An agent adding a custom
style would have added a spurious Packages entry and broken vale sync
outright. The qualifier is restored in the body rather than behind a
fourth reference pointer.
Also corrects the moved fixture's framing, which tabulated a control row
under a heading claiming it came from a multi-line fixture.

Deploys kyberforge's SessionStart apm-currency hook into
.claude/settings.json (ADR-0019), bumps bin 1.1.2->1.1.3 and
kyberforge 1.4.1->1.5.0 in apm.lock.yaml with new exec_status
fields, and removes lint's now-empty .apm/hooks/ source dir
(the generated hooks/hooks.json mirror is untouched).
mattpocock-skills was pinned as the range ^1.2.0 with no lockfile, so apm
re-resolved it against upstream on every pack. An upstream v1.2.4 would
invalidate the committed ref/sha and fail apm-pack-check-clean with exit 4,
blocking every push in the repo at an unrelated moment, triggered by a third
party. ADR-0015 claimed the opposite -- that nothing advances it. Pinned to
1.2.3, which resolves to the already-committed sha, so the only compiled
change is the version key the remote entry alone was missing.
marketplace.owner.email was dropped on a false premise: ADR-0015 said apm has
no key for it, but yml_schema.py defines _AUTHOR_OBJECT_KEYS as {name, email,
url} and the key compiles through. Restored. (displayName is genuinely
unsupported and stays dropped.)
ADR-0016 dropped per-agent tools: because the allowlist shape is unportable --
Claude takes a comma list, Copilot a {Tool: true} map. That holds. But a
denylist has no such conflict: disallowedTools is honoured by Claude Code and
is absent from its plugin-subagent ignore list, and Copilot copies agent
frontmatter verbatim so an unknown key is inert. gitea-orchestrate,
apm-orchestrate and lint-runner were all write-denied on main and lost that
fence silently; only lint-runner's loss was disclosed, and only lint-runner
had prose to fall back on. All three regain the fence, and the two with no
no-edit language gain three statements each. git-orchestrate is untouched --
it legitimately had edit.
Four plugins shipped changed compiled output under unchanged versions,
against the policy this PR itself wrote: bin 1.1.1->1.1.2, git 1.3.2->1.3.3,
gitea 1.3.3->1.3.4, lint 1.1.5->1.1.6, each in both the plugin manifest and
the root packages[] entry. Root catalog 0.3.3->0.3.4: patch, because the set
of entries is unchanged and what moved is the owner block and four versions.

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.
