Addresses PR #85's outstanding review items after grilling the open
questions against ADR-0013/CONTEXT.md/ADR-0010:
Blocking fixes:
- vale-wrap.sh: replace json.dumps() escaping (which silently defeated
Vale's frontmatter scope on any description containing a quote,
backslash, or non-ASCII char — ~58% of the corpus) with a single-quoted
YAML scalar, substituting a Unicode right single quote for embedded
apostrophes rather than '' doubling (Vale's frontmatter scanner isn't a
full YAML parser and silently truncates on '' too).
- vale-wrap.sh: fix a blank-line-inside-a-folded-description truncation
bug via indentation-based, blank-line-tolerant body capture; narrow
flattening to `>`-style scalars only (`|` already works unflattened).
- skill-audit/agent-audit Step 1: make the vale-wrap.sh invocation
cwd-independent via git rev-parse --show-toplevel, fixing a bug where
no single cwd satisfied all three Step 1 commands.
- styles/Kyberforge/VagueQualifier.yml: prune 17 tokens verified
false-positive-dominated on this repo's own voice via a real corpus
sweep (obvious, clearly, usually, several, simple, easy, completely,
simply, tiny, etc.), keep 13 with real or unattested noise. Revert the
28 prose "fixes" those tokens drove across 14 skill files back to their
original, correct wording, including a functional regression to
caveman/SKILL.md's own filler-word list (a mention, not a use) — now
guarded with vale-off comments against recurrence.
Gaps:
- --minAlertLevel=warning on the pre-commit hook and Step 1 invocation
so warning-level rules actually surface, without collapsing the
FAIL/SUGGESTION severity mapping skill-audit/agent-audit rely on.
- vale-wrap.sh: fix --config=<path> equals-form, absolute-path silent
no-op, and a zero-file-argument stdin hang.
- Route vale-run and lint-runner through a documented wrapper script
when a target repo has one, instead of unconditionally recommending
bare `vale`.
- Wire Kyberforge.VagueQualifier/SentenceOpenerThereIs into skill-audit/
agent-audit's dimension-mapping prose (Body discipline).
- Add plugins/lint/sources.md provenance for lint-runner (ADR-0010).
- Sync both marketplace.json lint-entry descriptions with plugin.json.
- Retune skill-size-check.sh's MAX_WORDS 5000->2900 (measured ~1.6-1.7
tokens/word on this repo's corpus, the old value gated at ~8,500
tokens against a stated 5,000 ceiling); fix the >/>= line-count
boundary and wc -l undercount on files with no trailing newline.
- Document the vale binary as a Setup prerequisite in AGENTS.md.
- Fix SentenceOpenerThereIs's dead regex alternative and add a real
sentence-start anchor/scope.
- Fix a stale docs/research/docs/vale/ index pointer in kyberforge's
docs README (moved to plugins/lint/ in e1a5403).
- Rewrite ADR-0013's Consequences section past-tense to describe what
actually landed, and record the styles-portability limitation
(repo-root placement stays intentional; deferred to a separate
session per this PR's review).
Test coverage: 9 new vale-wrap.sh fixtures (quotes, backslash/unicode,
blank-line paragraphs, --config= form, zero-arg/absolute-path handling,
literal-block no-regression) and boundary-pair tests for
skill-size-check.sh's line/word ceilings.
bash tests/run-tests.sh: 9 scripts + 125 bats assertions, all passing.
scripts/check-manifests.sh and claude plugin validate --strict: clean.

Prep work for issue #84 - gathers Vale (vale.sh) config, styles/rules,
CLI, installation, and troubleshooting reference material into
plugins/kyberforge/docs/research/docs/vale/ alongside the existing
research topics.
Refs #84
Audits a target repo's AGENTS.md file(s) for embedded secrets, structural
completeness against the agents.md common-sections checklist, and drift
(referenced commands/paths that no longer resolve). First active skill in
the core plugin — kyberforge is scoped to marketplace-factory meta-tooling,
not generic target-repo documentation (see ADR-0012). Moves the agentsmd
research corpus from plugins/kyberforge to plugins/core to match.

Fills a gap needed for the planned forge orchestrator skill: neither doc set
previously stated when to build a skill vs a subagent/custom agent. Sourced
via context7 against the same libraries already recorded in each sources.md.
Also confirms agentskills.io's spec is runtime-agnostic and defines no agent
concept, so it has no bearing on this decision by design.
## Why
The existing kyberforge research covered skills vs agents (ADR-0010),
Copilot track selection, and agent scope hierarchy — but had no documented
basis for three practical decisions: when to use MCP servers vs skills vs
agents, when hooks are the right tool vs skills, and when bin/ is
appropriate vs scripts/ inside a skill directory. Without this, the
plugin-author and agent-author skills have no research backing for those
choices.
## Implementation Notes
Sourced from official Claude Code plugin docs (code.claude.com), official
GitHub Copilot CLI docs (docs.github.com), and the Copilot
customization-cheat-sheet and comparing-cli-features pages — the latter
containing the only official "putting it together" decision table across
components. Context7 MCP was the primary retrieval mechanism; web reads
deepened the hooks and bin/ content.
Three files produced:
- overview.md — mental model, component roles, cross-provider portability
- decision-guide.md — explicit decision tables for all three gaps,
including anti-patterns and Copilot surface support matrix
- hooks.md — full lifecycle event reference, stdin/stdout schema,
hookSpecificOutput per event, plugin scope restriction

## 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.

## 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.

Research from official docs (code.claude.com) and Context7, covering
plugin manifest schema, agent definition frontmatter spec, scope
priority, marketplace distribution, and plugin subagent restrictions.
Foundation for writing an agent-author skill.

Adds the gitea skill to kyberforge — a dispatch skill for managing
Defame1297/holocron via Gitea MCP from within Claude Code. Covers
issues, PRs, milestones, labels, branches, and status. Owner/repo
derived from git remote at runtime; no config required.
Also adds research docs (api-reference, data-model, examples,
overview, troubleshooting) and token-access reference used during
authoring and available for runtime scope lookups.

Deletes the neuledge-context skill (.agents/skills/) and four kyberforge
plugin skills — marketplace-architect, plugin-create, promptfoo, and
write-agent — along with associated docs (adding-agents.md,
plugin-marketplace-architecture.md).

Separates development-time reference material from live plugin docs.
agentskillsio/, agentsmd/, and examples/skill-write/ are not shipped with
the plugin — grouping them under research/ makes that boundary explicit.
README now lists all top-level files and explains what research/ is for.

Moves the previous write-skill implementation to docs/examples/skill-write/write-skill/
for reference. The skill has been superseded by the spec-compliant skill-write rewrite.

claude plugin validate scans all .md files in agents/ as agent
definitions and warns on missing YAML frontmatter. The file was a
contributor guide, not an agent. Kyberforge ships no agents, so the
agents/ directory is now correctly empty.

Moves create-plugin, marketplace-architect, write-skill, and write-eval
from canonical .agents/skills/ into plugins/kyberforge/skills/, along
with all bundled sub-files, evals, and the plugin-marketplace-architecture
research doc. Bundles templates/plugin/ into create-plugin/assets/plugin-template/
so the skill is self-contained after install-time caching. Removes
templates/plugin/ and docs/research/plugin-marketplace-architecture.md
from the repo root as they are now exclusively in the plugin.

Scaffolds the kyberforge marketplace management plugin (create-plugin and
marketplace-architect skills will live here). Renames the plugin-create
skill directory to create-plugin to match the canonical kebab-order convention.
