## 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.

check-manifests.sh requires all paths declared in plugin.json to exist.
Adds empty hook and MCP server stubs matching kyberforge convention.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
## Why
The Obsidian MCP server config was living at the repo root, making it
a repo-level concern rather than part of the plugin it belongs to.
Moving it into plugins/bin/ means the plugin is self-contained and the
server travels with it on install.
## Implementation Notes
mcpServers is declared in the Copilot manifest (plugin.json) because
Copilot requires explicit path declarations. CC auto-discovers .mcp.json
from the plugin root so no change to the CC manifest is needed.
Bumps version to 1.0.3 in both manifests.

Both skills exist on disk but were missing from the plugin README and the
skills/ directory README. Adding them so the listings stay consistent with
the actual skill set.
Co-authored-by: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
## Why
Several small quality issues accumulated across plugin-author and
marketplace-author: the plugin-author description was ambiguous about
scope, the ADD flow asked an unnecessary clarifying question when local
path is the obvious default, VALIDATE had redundant wording already
captured inline, the keywords field was missing from the validation
checklist, and tests/README.md was a placeholder with nothing to test.
## Implementation Notes
- plugin-author: tightened description scope to "inside those
directories"; added `keywords` identical-in-both-manifests check to
VALIDATE checklist.
- marketplace-author: moved reserved-prefix constraint from gotchas
into the ADD checklist item; replaced the four-option prompt with a
default+escape-hatch ("I'll treat this as local path — is that right?");
folded the validate-from-root note inline and removed trailing padding;
deleted tests/README.md — no scripts/ directory exists, so the
placeholder was noise.
- README.md: removed the tests/README.md row from the file table.
## 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
The manifest-fields tables in both skills used imprecise labels ("CC-only",
"Copilot-only") that conflated two distinct reasons a field appears in only
one manifest: platform constraint (the other tool does not support the field
at all) versus repo convention (both tools support it, but the scaffold places
it in one manifest by design). This caused agents to treat convention
boundaries as hard platform constraints, producing unnecessary errors when
updating manifests for dual-tool repos.
Provenance was also incomplete: sources.md files were missing entries for
sources that had been consulted and were already contributing to SKILL.md
and manifest-fields.md content, making the evidence chain unverifiable.
## Implementation Notes
Field classification now uses three explicit categories — shared, platform
(one tool does not support the field), and convention (both tools support it;
scaffold places it in one manifest by design). The distinction matters because
convention fields may legitimately appear in the other manifest when there is
a deliberate reason; platform fields may not.
New gotchas added to plugin-author: agent files silently ignore hooks,
mcpServers, and permissionMode frontmatter; claude plugin tag --push requires
a clean working tree; --dry-run preview before tagging; --strict flag on
validate. New gotchas in marketplace-author: metadata object as Copilot CLI
canonical location for top-level fields; strict: false for dual-tool plugins;
sha takes precedence over ref for pinning; --strict flag on validate.
tests/ removed from plugin-author because new-plugin.sh has no branching
logic warranting a bats suite at this stage.
## Impact
Skill prompt changes only — no runtime code affected. Agents using these
skills will now correctly distinguish convention from constraint when deciding
which manifest to update for a given field.

## 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
## Why
Plugin cache is keyed by version string. Adding pc-author and pc-run
skills requires a version bump so claude plugin update resolves a new
cache directory and picks up the new skills.

## Why
Pre-commit config management was entirely manual — no skill existed to
help create, modify, or validate `.pre-commit-config.yaml`, or to run,
install, and maintain the pre-commit setup. These two skills close that
gap with clear scope separation: authoring vs. execution.
## Implementation Notes
- `pc-author` owns `.pre-commit-config.yaml` only (no hook publishing,
no install). Runs `pre-commit validate-config` after every write.
Shallow file-extension scan drives proactive hook recommendations;
rev staleness is flagged against `references/hooks-by-language.md`
rather than hardcoded versions. Remove path reverts on failure.
- `pc-run` owns install, run, autoupdate, gc, and clean. Defaults to
`--all-files`. Install warns about existing `.git/hooks/` files being
overwritten by `-f`. Clean requires HITL confirmation. Failure
interpretation delegates to `references/failure-patterns.md`.
- Provenance wired to `plugins/kyberforge/docs/research/docs/pre-commit/`.
- Both skills resolve via the existing `"skills/"` glob in `plugin.json`.
## Impact
Two new slash commands available after `claude plugin install kyberforge@holocron`:
`/pc-author` and `/pc-run`.

## Why
The initial research pass focused on agent definitions. An audit identified
critical and minor gaps in both doc sets around plugin publishing, marketplace
registration, and the Copilot extensibility model.
## Implementation Notes
Claude Code gaps filled: end-to-end publish walkthrough (scaffold → validate →
tag → host → register), CLI vs in-session command surface equivalence, all six
marketplace source URL formats, plugin update/upgrade lifecycle, interactive
plugin manager UI, private marketplace auth, `commands` vs `skills/` distinction.
Copilot gaps filled: discovered that the GitHub App-based Copilot Extensions
track was sunset November 2025. Created copilot-extensions.md as historical
reference (deprecated, with MCP servers as the current replacement path).
Documented the agent vs. skillset extension type distinction, OAuth install
flow, and VS Code Chat Participants as the surviving @mention mechanism.
overview.md updated with a "Which Track to Use" decision table covering all
four active tracks plus the deprecated one.
Co-authored-by: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
## Why
skill-author explicitly excludes agent definition files ("Do not use to author
agent definition files"). No factory skill existed to create or improve the
.md / .agent.md files that define Claude Code subagents and Copilot CLI agents
in a plugin, project, or user scope. This fills that gap.
## Implementation Notes
Single-root scaffold convention: new-agent.sh <name> <root> derives both
provider file paths from the root by convention — plugin scope (plugin.json
present) writes both files into <root>/agents/; non-plugin scope writes
.claude/agents/<name>.md and .github/agents/<name>.agent.md. This keeps
input minimal while always generating both provider files. See ADR-0015.
Routing is file-level (not directory-level like skill-author): neither file
exists → create flow; at least one exists → improve flow; scaffold is a
file-by-file no-op so retries are safe.
No companion agent-audit skill — inline validation in the close step covers
the simpler agent field contract. agent-audit is tracked as a follow-on.
## Impact
Closes the skill-author gap for agent definitions. Follow-ons tracked in
Gitea #11: agent-audit skill and --copilot-dest override flag for non-standard
Copilot project paths.

## Why
Parallel research track to the Claude Code plugins research already
committed. Needed to understand GitHub Copilot's extensibility model
before designing cross-tool plugin compatibility for the kyberforge
plugin system.
## Implementation Notes
Three distinct Copilot extension tracks are covered: CLI plugins
(plugin.json + marketplaces), cloud/IDE custom agents (frontmatter .md
files committed to repos), and the SDK programmatic API. The SDK track
got its own topic file (sdk.md) because the content doesn't fit neatly
into the default topic list. Sources include Context7 (/websites/github_en_copilot),
both user-provided reference URLs, and four additional deepened pages.
## Impact
Provides a reference baseline for evaluating .claude-plugin/ / plugin.json
compatibility between Claude Code and Copilot CLI — the two formats share
a manifest discovery path and the strict:false field enables cross-tool
plugin distribution.
