Why:
The repo published apm packages but consumed them the old way — `claude plugin install
<name>@holocron`, six plugins enabled per project. Dogfooding stopped one layer short of the
install tooling kyberforge itself ships.
Implementation notes:
- Root apm.yml declares the six packages as dependencies.apm git+path objects against the
holocron remote. Object form over `<name>@holocron` aliases on purpose: an alias first needs
`apm marketplace add`, which writes to ~/.apm/marketplaces.json — user scope, absent on a fresh
clone. Unpinned against the default branch, matching the autoUpdate the native install had.
- apm.lock.yaml is committed; .claude/skills/, .claude/agents/ and apm_modules/ are gitignored
regenerable install output. Committing the deployed skills would add a third mirror of content
ADR-0017 already governs two copies of.
- .mcp.json is generated by apm from plugins/bin/.mcp.json, so the obsidian MCP server survives
the switch.
- .claude/settings.json is reduced to {"hooks": {}}. apm replays the install into a scratch tree
and diffs, so any repo-owned key there is permanent drift that fails apm-audit-ci. Nothing was
lost: enabledPlugins was empty after the uninstall and the only hooks entry was PreToolUse: [].
- tests/run-bats.sh and tests/run-tests.sh exclude apm_modules/. It holds a full copy of every
plugin, and a copied .bats file resolves its helpers against the dependency root rather than
this repo — 334 tests, 167 failures before the exclusion.
Impact:
Skills are now unnamespaced — `git-commits`, not `git:git-commits` — because apm deploys plain
project skills with no plugin to prefix. AGENTS.md, CONTEXT.md and docs/spec/architecture.md are
updated accordingly. Root apm.yml now declares dependencies, which arms apm-audit-ci's
lockfile-exists check for the root manifest. External consumers are unaffected: the marketplace
manifests are untouched and `apm pack --check-clean` stays clean. Project scope only.

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.

`core`'s description and keywords described `bin`'s skills — triage, diagnosis,
architecture review — while `core` ships the three agentsmd/provider-adapter skills.
Pre-existing text, but this PR compiles it into `plugin.json` and both
`marketplace.json` files, so it became published metadata. The root `apm.yml` entry
carried the same stale text and is the one that actually reaches the marketplace
manifests, so fixing only the package manifest left it half-propagated.
Version bumps follow the per_package policy this PR documents, each landing in both
the package `apm.yml` and the root entry: kyberforge 1.4.0 -> 1.4.1 for the
reference-doc changes, core 1.1.0 -> 1.1.1 for the metadata, catalog 0.3.2 -> 0.3.3
as a marketplace-block-only edit.
The compiled diff is larger than those four changes because the manifests committed
at HEAD were not apm output: `json.dumps(indent=2, sort_keys=True)` reproduces all
three byte-for-byte, i.e. `pretty-format-json --autofix` had rewritten them before
the exclusion existed. Regenerating realigns them to genuine `apm pack` output;
the remainder of the diff is key ordering and UTF-8 escaping. `core`'s keyword
change is a fifth semantic change, invisible at marketplace level because
`marketplace.json` carries no keywords field.

Uncomment marketplace.outputs.codex in apm.yml. Codex output requires
every package to declare a category -- added one per package (Developer
Tools / Utilities / Version Control / Productivity, matching each
plugin's actual scope).
Re-running apm pack after enabling codex auto-synced 'codex' into each
local package's own targets: list (apm.yml, per plugin) -- packages
belonging to a marketplace that publishes a codex output need to declare
codex as a supported compile target for that to be coherent. Verified
idempotent: a second apm pack --check-clean run makes no further changes.
.claude-plugin/marketplace.json regenerated (now carries category per
plugin); .agents/plugins/marketplace.json is the new codex artifact.
Refs: #90
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.
