The apm conversion (5e23250) moved skills/agents to plugins/<name>/.apm/
and deleted plugin-author/marketplace-author, but a review against issue
#90's Definition of Done found several stale pre-conversion references
left behind by straight git-mv's, plus one real content gap:
- ADR-0014 still documented the old flat vale-prefilter paths in 6
places, despite ADR-0015 claiming it had been updated.
- ADR-0015 also overclaimed: it said ADR-0014 had both a skills/ and an
agents/ path regex updated, but ADR-0014 never had an agents/ path
regex to begin with (its one "agents" mention is a Vale glob-section
identifier, not a filesystem path). Corrected the wording.
- CONTEXT.md's Skill glossary entry, its Vale-prefilter section, and its
plugin-author/marketplace-author forward-pointer all still described
the pre-conversion layout or a "pending issue #90" state that has since
landed.
- LESSONS.md and two skill test READMEs pointed at skill-author/
skill-audit/agent-author paths without the .apm/ segment.
- apm-workflow/references/marketplace.md cited plugin-author/SKILL.md's
Gotchas for the Claude Code reserved plugin-name-prefix list, but that
list was never actually carried into apm-workflow during the
conversion despite ADR-0015 claiming it was. Recovered the list from
git history and inlined it directly rather than leaving a dangling
citation.
- agent-author/references/deployment-modes.md had an example
contradicting its own stated .apm/agents/ convention two lines above.
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.

A grill-me session determined plugin-author/marketplace-author are fully
superseded by the landed apm-install/apm-workflow/apm-orchestrate artifacts
and will be deleted (not adapted) under issue #90, narrowing issue #89 to
skill-author/agent-author only; forge stays untouched. ADR-0015 is amended
to record this correction plus a three-way content-migration audit.
Claude Code platform-constraint facts that lived only in
plugin-author/marketplace-author (reserved name prefixes, the ADR-0010
agents/ stray-.md validator gotcha, claude plugin validate as a terminal
check, and a removal/re-pack confirm-before-proceeding note) remain true
post-conversion and are migrated into apm-workflow's reference docs via
kyberforge:skill-author, which also updated the skill's README and
sources.md provenance records. Dual-manifest-specific conventions (ADR-0006
parity, CC/Copilot field-placement split) do not carry forward since they
no longer apply.
ADR: 0015
Re-review (comment 24) of fix commit e16c3dc found six new issues, mostly
introduced by that fix commit itself: a dangling reference to a Hard Rule
bullet the same commit deleted (apm-orchestrate.md/.agent.md Process step
2 still named "secret indirection"), and an ADR-0015 Decision bullet that
claimed "this ADR does not update CONTEXT.md" while the same commit had
just added a forward-pointer sentence to CONTEXT.md's Plugin/Plugin
marketplace entries. Both reworded to match what actually happened.
apm-install's APM_INSTALL_DIR escape-hatch example dropped the curl pipe
entirely (`APM_INSTALL_DIR=... sh` with nothing piped into it) — fixed in
both apm-install/SKILL.md and the installation.md research doc, verified
against the upstream Microsoft APM docs via Context7.
Neither apm-workflow nor apm-orchestrate routed to plain `apm install
[PACKAGE_REF]`, the CLI command that actually resolves/fetches
dependencies declared in apm.yml — apm-install only bootstraps the apm
binary/runtime, not per-package deps. Added a 5th "install" dispatch
action to apm-workflow (new references/install.md, SKILL.md table row,
README usage/files sync, sources.md provenance entry) and a matching
"install" operation group on apm-orchestrate so it can route there.
configure.md's apm.yml schema block was also missing the "legacy singular
`target:` CSV form is still accepted" caveat its sibling research doc
documents for the same field — added for consistency.
The sixth finding (paired .md/.agent.md Output-contract disagreement) was
checked against git-orchestrate and gitea-orchestrate's existing pairs and
found to match established repo convention (JSON schema in .md, prose
summary without the enum in .agent.md) — left unchanged as a false
positive rather than "fixed."
kyberforge bumped 1.3.0 -> 1.3.1 via agent-author's normal improve flow.

ADR-0015's Decision bullet stated ADR-0001 was superseded as present
fact while Consequences framed it as conditional on issue #90 —
reworded Decision to match, and added a Supersedes header (repo
convention per ADR-0007/ADR-0010) so the pending change is visible
from the title. Also fixed a forward-note that misattributed the
pre-existing .agent.md convention (ADR-0005/0010) to the APM move,
and reworded the rejected-plugins/apm/ rationale to acknowledge the
shipped skills are actually generic rather than repo-specific.
CONTEXT.md's Plugin/Plugin-marketplace glossary entries got a
forward-pointer to ADR-0015 so a session-start read surfaces the
pending manifest-authoring change.
apm-orchestrate.md/.agent.md: removed a Hard Rule requiring ${VAR}
secret indirection that can never fire (the orchestrator has no
Edit/Write tool and never touches apm.yml — apm-workflow's SKILL.md
already owns this rule where content is actually written); removed
compile-manifest-check, an operation with no backing apm CLI command
anywhere in the research docs; added explicit CLI mappings for
add-package/add-marketplace so an executing agent can't invert them.
marketplace.md's release steps shelled out to raw git add/commit/
tag/push — replaced with a pointer to the git-commits/git-remotes
skills per AGENTS.md's "prefer plugin skills over raw shell" rule.
compile.md now states audit runs after compile/pack (audit scans
deployed output, not the source apm.yml) — answers a reviewer
question that had no documented answer.

Records the grill-with-docs decision on issue #88: replace the
hand-authored plugin/marketplace manifest model with Microsoft APM
(apm.yml + .apm/) as this repo's authoring source of truth. The
plugins/<name>/ monorepo-hybrid layout survives; marketplace.json and
provider plugin.json files become compiled output. Supersedes
ADR-0001; touches but does not resolve ADR-0006/0010/0014. Follow-up
work tracked in issues #89 and #90.
