B1: check-skill-version-bump.sh resolves every merge-base with `git merge-base
--all` instead of the single base git happens to pick. A criss-cross history has
two, so the verdict turned on that choice: a skill byte-identical to main's tip
could still be reported "not above merge-base" / "not above main tip" and fail a
push that should pass. A skill now counts as changed only when it differs from
EVERY base, and its version must exceed the version at every base it exists at
as well as at the main tip; with more than one base the failure names which one.
Case 40 in tests/test-skill-version-bump.sh builds the criss-cross fixture and
pins both directions.
B2: check-apm-current.sh no longer assumes the remote default branch is `main`
when origin/HEAD is unset. A checkout whose default is `master` was standing on
its default branch and being told "this is a feature branch, so discard it" --
to throw away a real lock update. With origin/HEAD unset nothing is asserted and
the neutral advice stands. tests/test-apm-current-hook.sh covers the unset case
on both `main` and `master`.
#4: the required-frontmatter checks folded into skill-size-check.sh by c8a7c9e
were untested apart from the leading-zero shape -- mutating the missing-version
ERROR into a no-op left every suite green. tests/test-adr0020-frontmatter.sh now
pins name presence and non-emptiness, metadata.version presence and semver
shape, and the four grep defects the deleted test-skill-frontmatter.sh named.
#5: nothing asked whether a Vale rule still MATCHES anything -- rewriting
CompositionNote.yml's tokens to match nothing left test-vale-wrap.sh at 63/63.
Case 35 enumerates the rule files under the Kyberforge* style directories at run
time, requires an alert from each on its own fixture, and fails when a
discovered rule has no fixture row. The stale comment at case 31 is corrected.
#6: tests/run-tests.sh --strict exited 0 when discovery found no test-*.sh at
all; strictness only ever acted on skips, and with no suites there were none. It
now cross-checks the git index the way run-bats.sh does and fails
unconditionally on an empty set, naming the search root.
N9: the skill-size-check hook description in .pre-commit-config.yaml covered
only the size, context-budget and boundary-target gates. It now also names the
required frontmatter fields, matching docs/spec/gates.md.

Why: the docs said to discard a refreshed apm.lock.yaml on a feature
branch because the refresh records main's commit, but the branch's own
lock records a (older) main commit too, and the SessionStart notice gave
the same "commit or discard" advice on every branch.
Implementation Notes:
- check-apm-current.sh picks fixed advice by branch: commit or discard
deliberately on the default branch (origin/HEAD, else main), discard and
reinstall on a feature branch; the branch name is never interpolated.
- README, AGENTS.md and ADR-0019 give the real reasons (no lock churn in
the branch diff, deployed tree matches the committed lock), the cost
(the session runs the older main) and that the next session start
refreshes again.
- ADR-0019's check-clean and stale-server claims restated to match apm's
source.

apm prints "1 outdated dependency found" in the singular when exactly one
package is behind (apm_cli/commands/outdated.py). check-apm-current.sh
matched only "outdated dependencies found", so one stale package was
invisible: the hook exited 0 silently and no refresh ran. With six
packages merging independently, one-behind is the ordinary case, so the
freshness mechanism failed most often in the situation it exists for.
Three further defects in the same hook:
- The host timeout was below the script's own budget. hooks.json declared
320s while the script allows `timeout 60` plus `timeout 300` = 360s, so
a slow remote let the host kill the hook mid-update and leave
.claude/skills/ half-deployed with nothing emitted. Now 380. A test
asserts the invariant rather than the literal: it sums every `timeout N`
parsed out of the script and requires hooks.json to exceed it, so
changing either side alone fails.
- The lockfile guard was cwd-relative, so a session opened in a
subdirectory no-opped silently and ran both apm calls against the wrong
directory. Now anchored on CLAUDE_PROJECT_DIR, falling back to the cwd
so the hook stays inert under a host that does not set it.
- Every assertion mocked apm, so the suite was green over code that could
not detect its own most common trigger. That blind spot is what hid the
singular/plural bug, and it is the same shape as the deleted post-push
tests. The suite now stages a genuinely outdated dependency against a
local git remote — offline, via url.<path>.insteadOf, so the
pass-under-unshare property survives — runs the real `apm outdated`, and
replays its output through the real hook. Reverting the grep to
plural-only fails it.
23 -> 35 assertions. Each fix mutation-tested individually. kyberforge
stays at 1.5.0: it is untagged, so this changes what 1.5.0 ships rather
than superseding it, and executables.allow needs no edit.

Why
---
ADR-0018 left deployed skills tracking the remote default branch with nothing
watching for drift. The mechanism that was supposed to cover this,
scripts/git-hooks/post-push, could never have worked: git has no client-side
post-push hook. install.sh copied it into .git/hooks/ so it looked installed,
and it had never once fired. Issue #78 reported it as skipping the gitea
plugin; it was skipping everything.
Refreshing on push was also the wrong shape. Your install goes stale when
someone else merges, so a push of your own is neither necessary nor sufficient
for staleness to have occurred.
Implementation notes
--------------------
kyberforge ships a SessionStart hook (startup matcher only) that runs
`apm outdated`, and when anything is behind runs `apm update --yes` and returns
reloadSkills:true so the running session picks up redeployed content. It exits
silently with no apm.lock.yaml present, which keeps it inert for hosts that
installed this plugin natively rather than through apm.
Two findings drove the wiring, both verified rather than assumed:
- apm resolves ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT} against the installed package root, and
`apm pack` keeps only *.json from .apm/hooks/. A .../hooks/<script> reference
therefore points into the generated mirror where the script does not exist —
apm reports "Hook script not found" and deploys a hook aimed at nothing. The
reference must be .apm/-relative, and a test pins it.
- apm's executable-trust gate is OFF unless apm.yml carries an `executables:`
block; until now every hook, bin and MCP primitive a dependency shipped would
have deployed unprompted. Root apm.yml now enables it. The allow key is
version-pinned by apm's design, so a kyberforge version bump silently blocks
the hook until the key is bumped too — called out in the block and the ADR.
Also corrects ADR-0018 and AGENTS.md, which named `apm install` as the refresh
command. It is not: `apm install` deploys from apm.lock.yaml's pinned commit
and does not re-resolve refs. `apm update` does.
Impact
------
Session startup costs ~0.7s when current and ~10.4s when six packages are
behind. Auto-refresh rewrites apm.lock.yaml, so an unexplained modification to
it after opening a session is expected; the emitted notice says so.
.claude/settings.json stops being exactly {"hooks": {}} once the hook lands
there — the merged entry is apm's own output, and the rule that nothing
repo-authored goes in that file is unchanged. .claude/hooks/ and the
.claude/apm-hooks.json sidecar are gitignored install output.
The hook cannot install itself: dependencies resolve from the remote, so it
takes effect only after this merges and `apm update` runs once against the new
default branch.
scripts/git-hooks/ is now empty. install.sh's copy block is kept and
test-git-hooks-install.sh synthesizes its own fixture, so the mechanism stays
tested without requiring a dead hook to exist.
