Defame1297	ffcbed6c41	fix(tests): replace pipefail-racy echo | grep -q with here-strings ... Why Two suites failed intermittently — tests/test-vale-wrap.sh case 21 and tests/test-check-release-needed.sh cases 4 and 15 — on correct output, and never when run alone. The cause is the `echo "$OUT" | grep -q P` idiom under `set -o pipefail`: grep -q exits as soon as it has an answer, bash's echo can hand a multi-line value to the pipe one line at a time, and a write after the reader is gone kills echo with SIGPIPE. pipefail then reports the writer's death, so output that DID match reads as "no match". Every observed failure had lines after its match; case 15's match is on line 1 of 6, the widest window in that file. Forced with a pause before the writer's last line, the pipe form failed 50 of 50 runs; a here-string, a match on the last line, and the same pipe without pipefail each passed 50 of 50. Unforced the rate is about 1 per 670 suite runs, which is why it read as a flaky gate rather than a bug. The failures at review time are consistent with this, but were not proven to be it: the suite was running while agents edited live config files in place, and a brief change to .vale.ini or .pre-commit-hooks.yaml would produce the same two failures. The race is real and fixed either way. Implementation Notes `grep -q P <<< "$VAR"` has no separate writer process, so there is nothing to race. It is not a retry or a sleep. 121 sites converted across 9 files, three of them scripts rather than tests: new-agent.sh, new-skill.sh and check-executables-allow-sync.sh. None ships via .pre-commit-hooks.yaml, so no external consumer pins them, and all three are single-pipeline checks whose verdict cannot change. Left alone deliberately: 14 sites whose writer is a command, not a shell builtin — they either absorb the writer's status with `|| true` or are python3 and awk, which write once at exit — and one file with no pipefail. `printf '%s'` sites differ from a here-string only by a trailing newline, which no -q verdict on a non-empty pattern depends on. tests/test-no-pipefail-early-exit-grep.sh is a static guard against new occurrences, discovered automatically by run-tests.sh. It only scans files that set pipefail, joins continuation lines, skips comments, and flags only echo/printf writers. Its first case proves the scanner can fail before its second trusts a clean verdict on the tree. A guard covers exactly the spellings its regex models, so the miss surface was measured rather than assumed. Four were found and closed: pipefail declared as `set -o errexit -o pipefail` (where the old pattern required pipefail to follow the FIRST -o, and a file-level miss skips every site in that file); a writer separated from grep by an intermediate stage; a pipeline wrapped on a trailing `|` rather than a backslash; and readers spelled egrep, fgrep, /bin/grep, `command grep` or with an env-var prefix. Segment characters exclude a bare `&` so `echo ok && other | grep -q x`, whose writer is `other`, does not false-fire. Widening surfaced 5 live sites invisible to the original scanner, all in tests/test-apm-current-hook.sh, all `echo "$out" | json_field ... | grep -q`; they are safe today only because json_field is python3, which reads to EOF and writes once. Fixtures go 4 to 12 vulnerable spellings plus near-miss negatives. Two `grep ... | head -1` sites (test-vale-wrap.sh) are the same race with a different early-exiting reader, and are fixed by absorbing the writer. The scanner deliberately does not model `head`, `sed -n 1p` or a bare `read`: most legitimate uses in this tree are already absorbed with `|| true` and the scanner cannot see absorption from pipeline text, so a high false-positive rate would be how this guard gets weakened. Heredoc bodies are scanned as code; none in the tree trips it today. Impact The bug predates the factory-audit merge: every converted site in check-release-needed and case 21 dates to 4d018af and aa8cc22 (2026-08-09). Test suites go 19 to 20. `run-tests.sh --strict` passes 20/20 with 0 skipped, four consecutive runs.

Defame1297	620f20b0fd	refactor(kyberforge)!: merge skill-audit and agent-audit into factory-audit ... Why The two audit skills carried 1,724 lines of byte-identical duplication: the ADR-0020 boundary resolver (1,061), vale-wrap.sh (526), the Vale style rules (44) and the Contributing-files parser (93). Nothing shared them — they were held in sync by a 413-line pre-push gate and its 797-line test suite. Sync-by-gate had already failed once: at 484357a the two parser copies drifted into different spellings of the bullet loop while a docstring asserted they were identical. That drift was behaviour-neutral and was re-unified by hand at 598a7c3, so the copies were identical at merge time — but nothing had caught it, and the next drift need not be neutral. Implementation Notes Self-containment binds BETWEEN skills, not within one. The agentskills.io spec forbids reaching across skill directories, which is why two separate skills needed embedded copies; two files inside ONE skill may source a third. That is the whole reason the merge removes duplication rather than relocating it. The union of both bodies measured 1,532 words against BODY_MAX_WORDS=900, and only 211 of those words were shared, so SKILL.md is a dispatch body. Step 0 resolves the flow from the target path before any validation, and its table mirrors validate.sh's detection exactly: a directory holding SKILL.md or a SKILL.md file (skill); a *.agent.md, or a .md directly under an agents/ directory (agent); anything else stops without running a validator. Steps 1-3 live in references/skill-flow.md and references/agent-flow.md, and gotchas that apply to one flow live in that flow's file, since it is loaded on every invocation anyway. If validate.sh reports on the other artifact type, the body restarts at Step 0. Named factory-audit rather than forge-audit because forge is a live skill, and a family prefix that matches a live sibling reads as ownership rather than membership. The description carries one arrow per boundary target, because ADR-0020 resolves only the first target after an arrow. It drops the quoted "audit this skill"-style phrases, which restated "audited" in a second register (ADR-0020's duplicate-register rule). 241 characters, Gotchas 16% of the body: no size SUGGESTIONs. The boundary resolver stays embedded in two files rather than imported: a cache-installed plugin cannot read outside its own directory, and the repo-root hook resolves via .pre-commit-hooks.yaml where entry[0] is the only token pre-commit rewrites, so no single file is reachable by both. tests/test-adr0020-contract.sh hashes both copies for byte-identity, and asserts validate.sh sources the resolver and that no third copy exists. The entry scripts classify the target from its resolved parent directory, so a bare agent filename typed inside agents/ works; resolve SCRIPT_DIR CDPATH-safely; and exit 2 when a lib-*.sh is missing, rather than dying with exit 1, the tier the flows relay as real findings. The provenance run functions stash their findings code in KYBERFORGE_PROV_RC and return 0, so validate-provenance.sh calls them UNTESTED. Testing a function's status (`f || RC=$?`) disables errexit for its entire body, and no subshell or `set -e` inside can re-arm it once the call sits in a condition context (measured, both spellings). Their error paths use `exit`, which is unaffected either way; this keeps errexit armed for anything added later. Case 0's readability guard reads the file instead of asking `[[ -r ]]`. `-r` is access(2), which answers yes for uid 0 even on a mode-000 file, and this repo's dev environment is root -- so the guard could never fire where it exists to fire. A read attempt is also the stricter question, catching EIO. This is the reasoning scripts/check-vale-style-sync.sh carried before this commit deleted it; the hazard did not go with it. All three entry scripts are CDPATH-safe, vale-wrap.sh included: both of its cd sites are cleared, the --config resolution and the directory-mirror walk, where an exported CDPATH would otherwise print a decoy path into the -print0 stream and build the mirror from the decoy's files. The two remaining bare cd calls take absolute paths, which CDPATH is never consulted for. Impact BREAKING: skill-audit and agent-audit no longer exist as invocable skills. kyberforge goes to 2.0.0 (catalog 0.4.7). Check logic is unchanged: differential runs of the old and new validators across every skill and agent produced byte-identical stdout, stderr and exit codes, and the reconstructed Python payloads differ only in comments and the references/field-inventory.md -> agent-field-inventory.md rename. One doctrine governs the tiers: exit 0 is audited and clean, exit 1 is audited with findings OR a target present but unreadable, exit 2 is that nothing was audited at all. Edge paths DID change, deliberately (full table in ADR-0025): - a missing target exits 2 (never ran), not 1, under its own "does not exist" message; detection is by path shape, so a shape-matching path that is simply absent used to reach the validator and come back as a FAIL against a file that never existed; - an unshaped target exits 2 under the generic "matches neither" message, and a directory with no SKILL.md under a third, distinct one -- three exit-2 messages, not one; - a dangling symlink or a symlink loop stays exit 1: it is present but broken, which is a finding about the artifact rather than a usage error; - a SKILL.md file path is audited as its skill directory instead of refused; - a .md agent outside an agents/ directory is refused rather than audited; - a missing script library, a missing python3, a missing PyYAML, and no argument at all each exit 2. validate-provenance.sh already exited 2 for the last two; validate.sh now matches it. .pre-commit-hooks.yaml is a published contract consumed by external repos. Both hook IDs and both files: regexes are unchanged; only entry: and description: moved. scripts/check-vale-style-sync.sh (413), scripts/sync-vale-styles.sh (21), tests/test-check-vale-style-sync.sh (797) and agent-audit/scripts/README.md (47) are deleted. The checker made 17 assertions: 6 compared the two Vale copies and are moot; 10 are rehomed into tests/test-vale-wrap.sh (case 0, cases 28-31, and the suite's Vale-absent skip); and the cross-manifest files: agreement check, which selected hooks by entry: and so could not survive both hooks sharing one, is ported as case 33 pairing hooks by id:. Cases 28, 30 and 33 carry mutation self-tests; narrowing the local skill prefilter to 6 of 38 SKILL.md files now fails the suite. Skills go 39 to 38. Pre-push goes 9 repo-authored hooks to 8. ADR: 0025 BREAKING-CHANGE: the skill-audit and agent-audit skills are removed. Both flows are served by factory-audit, which auto-detects whether it was handed a skill directory or an agent file.

Defame1297	718c79af70	chore: drop the flat content mirror and native install support (ADR-0024) ... apm becomes the only supported install path. The flat mirror at each plugin root existed solely so Claude Code's native `claude plugin install` could convention-scan plugin content (ADR-0017). With no native consumers, it cost ~20,000 tracked lines plus ~2,100 lines of sync tooling and ~88s of every push to guard content apm never reads — and its only automated gate, `claude plugin validate --strict`, passes on a plugin with zero content, so it could not detect the defect ADR-0017 was created to fix. Removes the mirror (213 files), the six per-plugin manifest pairs, sync-plugin-content.sh, its 1,289-line test, the orphaned marketplace-plugins.sh, and the check-plugin-content-sync and validate-plugins pre-push hooks. The root `marketplace:` block and .claude-plugin/ catalogue stay: apm's own marketplace consumers read that same file, so `<name>@holocron` short names keep working. tests/run-bats.sh now excludes .claude/skills/. apm installs from .apm/, which carries the tests/ dirs the mirror stripped, so deployed .bats files would otherwise be discovered and double-run.

Defame1297	edcc57c0d6	docs: trim skill READMEs and ADR/changelog narration ... Two related simplification-audit findings, bundled because they edit some of the same skill-audit files and splitting would fragment single-file diffs. Finding 10: delete 48 per-skill/reference README.md files (they restated SKILL.md in narrative form and no agent ever loads them) plus 2 scaffold templates. Drop the README criterion from skill-audit's file-structure.md and finding-criteria.md, and the README-generation step from skill-author's new-skill.sh; update new-skill.bats to match. Plugin-root READMEs are kept intentionally, out of scope. Finding 12: strip historical ADR-0020/ADR-0023 citations and changelog-style narration from model-facing skill content across kyberforge and git plugin skills. Delete skill-author's one-time retrofit.md migration guide and its references. Some ADR-0023 tags were not narration but check-rtk-prefix's required opt-out marker for intentionally-bare git commands -- those were restored, not stripped. Mirror re-synced and full pre-commit/pre-push suite verified green.

Defame1297	3811f5481b	fix(kyberforge): unblock the scaffold and finish the #125 and ADR-0022 edits ... Three related half-applied changes from #130, each leaving the corpus in a state its own documentation contradicts. Why: - `assets/templates/SKILL.md` shipped `metadata:` fully commented out, and `new-skill.sh` only substitutes SKILL_NAME. Every scaffolded skill therefore lacked the `metadata.version` ADR-0022 made mandatory and was blocked at first commit by the very hook this PR added. The commented example also read `"1.0"` — neither the `0.1.0` new-skill seed nor valid semver. - `agent-audit/references/scope-project-user.md` still joined `disable-model-invocation` and `user-invocable` with a slash — #125's defect verbatim — while pointing the reader at the file this PR had just corrected to say the opposite. - ADR-0022 required the "when present" bump conditional dropped and `metadata.version` moved into create.md's required list. It was dropped from SKILL.md but left in README.md, and the field was edited in place under a heading that still authorises removing it entirely. Implementation notes: - The template emits `metadata: version: "0.1.0"` live, captioned as required, with the optional keys left commented. `new-skill.bats` gains a case asserting a live key and three-part semver, so this cannot regress. - `description-quality.md` now asserts only what the vendored Copilot research supports: two fields with opposite defaults, and the retired `infer` replaced by the pair rather than by either alone. The unsupported negative it previously stated as fact is gone. - The `1.0.0` retrofit seed is stated in improve.md and retrofit.md, which the retrofit flow actually reads — create.md, where it lived, is unreachable from that path. The compression item moved out of the file-churn checklist, whose preamble excluded the wording-only change it covers. - Executable git commands in these three skills now carry the ADR-0023 rtk prefix.

Defame1297	60be7b3232	refactor(skills): mandate metadata.version on every skill's frontmatter ... Only 12 of 39 skills carried metadata.version, and adoption tracked which plugin a skill lived in rather than any stated rule: core, gitea and lint were consistent adopters, bin and kyberforge were consistent non-adopters, git was split with one outlier. There was no documented convention, and skill-author's own bump logic was already written as if presence were conditional. metadata.version is now required on every skill. The 19 skills here that never carried one (bin, kyberforge, gitea-files) are seeded at 1.0.0, not 0.1.0 -- that value stays reserved for a skill's actual creation point under skill-author's existing convention. The skill-frontmatter pre-commit hook now fails a SKILL.md missing the field, the same class of failure as a missing name/description. Full rationale in the new ADR. The git-plugin skills that also need this field follow in the next commit, bundled with issue #113's rtk normalization since both touch the same files.

Claude Code AI - Gitea MCP	598a7c326a	refactor(skills): retrofit the corpus to the ADR-0020 context contract (#129) ... Retrofits all 39 skills to ADR-0020's description/body context contract, then fixes what six rounds of independent review found in that retrofit — including four ways the hot gate itself failed open. Closes #99, #107, #108, #110, #111, #114, #115, #120. ## The retrofit (waves 1-5) | | Start | Now | |---|---|---| | Description FAILs (>400 chars) | 26 | **0** | | Body FAILs (>900 words, body-only) | 9 | **0** | | Dangling routing targets | 2 | **0** | | `Kyberforge.CompositionNote` | 10 | **0** | | Preload tax | 21,005 chars | **~10,500** | Under the 12,000-char success criterion. Per-wave detail is on #99. ## The review fixes **The gate failed open four ways, three of them found after the retrofit shipped.** An unrecognised follower token made a dangling target vanish. A skill directory with no `SKILL.md` resolved as a valid target, so a commit could be green locally and red in a fresh clone — three existing fixtures were relying on that, one of which made the install-leak A/B pass vacuously. Then the free-standing `/name` sweep turned out to be gated on the sentence carrying a boundary marker, so route notation in any other sentence was invisible — not an ERROR, not a SUGGESTION, not an INFO — which left the documented "`/name` always blocks" promise false from a second direction. All four fixed and pinned. **Two checks were silently not running.** `validate-provenance.sh` checks 7-8 were dead across nine skills. Waking them exposed a deeper problem: they assume `Research doc:` names a source index, but 30 of 121 entries point at topic content documents, so every new check-7 INFO was a false positive and check 8 was saved from a false-FAIL flood only by an *unannounced* skip. Checks 7/8 are now scoped to source indexes and every skip announces itself (#121). **The retrofit's own anti-goal, four times.** ADR-0020 warns that a blunt gate gets satisfied by deleting content rather than relocating it. `diagnose` and `skill-audit` relocated prose and then read it unconditionally; `prototype` and `vale-config` deleted rules outright that survived nowhere. All four addressed. ## Verification - `bash tests/run-tests.sh --strict` — 24 suites, 0 skipped, 0 failed - `bash tests/run-bats.sh` — 325 tests, 0 failures - `pre-commit run --all-files` — 17/17 - `pre-commit run --hook-stage pre-push --all-files` — 16/16, with `apm marketplace check` and `apm pack --check-clean` run against the remote, not skipped - `scripts/skill-size-check.sh` over all 39 skills — rc 0, 0 ERROR/FAIL, SUGGESTION-only - Preload tax measured at **10,498 chars**, max description 390 — both inside budget - Every new test proven non-vacuous by a deliberate mutation of the behaviour it covers **Per-commit sync, stated accurately:** the ten commits from the latest review round each pass `check-plugin-content-sync` in isolation, verified by checking each out in a detached worktree with a clean between. The earlier gitea window (`dfacf05..bedbd1d`, nine commits) does **not** — its mirror was regenerated in one batch at `bbc7300`. An earlier revision of this description claimed the property held for every commit; it does not, and a bisect through that window lands on a red commit. **Squash-merge** to collapse it, or accept that this range is not bisectable. ## Version bump Six plugins and the catalog take a **patch**, not a minor. The branch is **89 commits — 40 `fix` / 30 `refactor` / 12 `docs` / 5 `chore` / 2 `test` — zero `feat`, zero `!`, zero `BREAKING CHANGE`** — and adds no skill, agent, command or hook. (Two earlier revisions of this section cited a stale histogram, most recently 78 commits; the figures above are measured at HEAD.) Both rules this repo ships (`forge/references/version-bump.md`, landing in this PR, and `git-commits/references/conventional-commits-spec.md`) make that a patch, and the catalog set is unchanged at 7 entries. Not settled by that: four published files were removed from the installed tree, three moved, and `caveman` gained `disable-model-invocation`, retiring its old triggers. Under a strict reading those are major-class and currently ship under `refactor:` with no marker. Whether the deployed skill surface is a public contract is written down nowhere — worth deciding, but it outlives this PR. ## Deliberately not in scope #112 (cherry-pick ownership, now resolved in favour of `git-commits`), #113 (`rtk git` normalisation), #116 (research fan-out), #101 (audit-skill merge), #122 (non-spec skill-root files), #123 (no PRD producer) stay open. #117 is the one worth reading: the contract's remedy is to move prose into `references/`, which is exactly where neither the size gate nor Vale looks — and the blind spot is wider than #117 currently records, since there is no root `.vale.ini` at all, so every ADR, `CONTEXT.md` and `README.md` is unlinted too. That blind spot let this branch carry two `level: error` `Kyberforge.SentenceOpenerThereIs` violations into `references/` files it created — `provider-adapter-author/references/provider-matrix.md:31` and `agent-audit/references/finding-criteria.md:95`. Both are reworded in `afadaae`, confirmed by routing each file through the audit's own `vale-wrap.sh` (1 error each before, 0 after). Five further occurrences sit in `references/` files already on `main`; those are the pre-existing corpus and stay with #117, which is the real fix. Also unfixed and not this PR's: `apm install` appends a duplicate `SessionStart` entry to `.claude/settings.json`, so a fresh clone cannot get pre-push green without an edit AGENTS.md warns against. Reproduces identically on `main`.

Defame1297	54d7bd80ba	docs: rule host built-ins out of the routing target universe ... Closes the second open design decision on PR #103. The `/compact` finding was recorded as a false positive needing an allowlist or a suppression mechanism. It is neither: the routing universe is the apm marketplace, so a target either resolves to a skill or an agent or it does not resolve, and `/compact`, `/clear` and `/init` are Claude Code slash commands with no counterpart in Copilot CLI or Codex. `.apm/` source compiles for all three, so a vendor-neutral description routing to one is a portability defect and the hard FAIL is a true positive. An allowlist was rejected for a concrete reason, not a stylistic one: it answers a different question ("does this exist on some host?"), it cannot answer that portably from a single source file, and it goes stale the next time a host ships a command — reintroducing the same-commit-two-verdicts failure ADR-0020 already closed for deployed trees. Nothing is blocked today: zero of the 43 descriptions name a host built-in, and an author who needs to mention one writes it un-slashed, which is not route notation and carries no routing claim. Recorded in ADR-0020 and in both author-facing contract references, so the next agent reads the decision rather than "fixing" the gate.

Defame1297	ede3f06689	fix(kyberforge): restore the authoring rules the ADR-0020 trim dropped ... Diffing each retrofitted SKILL.md against its replacement references/ files found rules that existed on main and now existed nowhere — relocated in intent, deleted in fact. A trim that loses a rule is not progressive disclosure, it is data loss with a smaller word count. Three had no survivor. The least-privilege guidance for `tools` kept its mechanics and lost the "restrict to what the agent needs" half, so the remaining text read as encouragement to omit the field. The improve flow lost its regression check, so nothing compared the closing audit against the pre-edit state and a PASS quietly becoming a SUGGESTION went unnoticed — restored on both halves of the author pair, since agent-author had dropped its equivalent too. And agent bodies lost "would the agent get this wrong without it?", which mattered more than it looks: ADR-0020 deliberately sets no body word gate for agents, three of the four already sit between 933 and 1,199 words, and the delegation check only fires on procedure a skill already owns. That heuristic was the only brake left. Two more were reachable only from the wrong scope. agent-author tells the reader to load only the file for the resolved scope, but the mcp__ glob syntax for disallowedTools and the five tools no subagent ever receives had both landed in project-user-scope.md. disallowedTools is the ONLY permitted fence at plugin/APM scope, so the scope that needs the syntax most could not reach it, and a plugin-scope run could write a body telling the agent to ask the user a question. Two documents were actively wrong rather than merely thin. agent-audit told auditors that validate.sh resolves boundary targets for skills only; it runs at both scopes, so the auditor was hand-resolving what the script had already decided and could contradict it. And skill-audit routed to its script-troubleshooting reference whenever validate.sh "fails" — but it exits 1 on ordinary content FAILs, the normal outcome for the whole #99 population, so 1,302 words loaded on nearly every audit. A context-budget regression inside the skill that enforces the context budget. Finally, two illustrations taught the shape the gate ERRORs on, unfenced, while an adjacent rubric called it a hard ERROR. LESSONS.md records the reference-chain depth rule flipping from "one level deep" to "two hops, never three". ADR-0020 is silent on it and the reversal rode entirely on the diff; the looser rule is what mandatory dispatch requires.

Defame1297	311e7cd22c	fix(kyberforge): reconcile the authoring rules the ADR-0020 trim left disagreeing ... Six defects, each one a place where two files that an author reads in the same sitting told them different things — or where the trim dropped a rule and nothing noticed because no gate covers prose. **"Use proactively" contradicted itself across the pair.** All three agent templates said to add it where the runtime should delegate unprompted, while `agent-audit`'s `KyberforgeCopilot.ProactivePhrase` rule grades it a hard FAIL in any `*.agent.md` — which is the Copilot half of every project/user pair *and* the vendor-neutral plugin-scope file, since that compiles to a real Copilot agent downstream. Following the template produced a file the repo's own gate rejects. The phrase is now permitted in exactly one place, the Claude Code `.md`, and `references/contract.md` carries the per-file table plus the consequence authors ask about next: a pair whose CC half has it and whose Copilot half does not is correct, because `agent-audit` checks that both halves describe the same job, not that they match word for word. **The output-schema rule contradicted itself inside one file.** `contract.md` said any content only one branch reaches moves to `references/`, and then offered an "Output format template" body pattern with no qualification. Stated once now, so it is not re-litigated: an output schema stays in the body only when every flow produces it and it is roughly 50 words or less. No third option. **Gotchas tiers disagreed with the script.** `validate.sh` emits the entry count through `suggest()` and exits 0, while `skill-author` and `skill-audit` both called more than five entries a FAIL. Whether a given gotcha earns its place is judgment, so the prose moves to the script's tier rather than the reverse. The paraphrase rule stays a FAIL and is explicitly marked as the auditor's call — no script detects it. **The dispatch exemplar was cited at the wrong number.** `apm-workflow`'s body is 421 words; 554 is its whole-file count. Both `contract.md` and `body-discipline.md` cited 554 while describing a body budget, so an author calibrating against the exemplar overshot by ~30% — the exact whole-file/body-only conflation those two sections exist to warn against, reproduced inside the warning. **"Error handling" came back as a required body element.** It was one of four and is the one that gets dropped, and dropping it is not neutral: an agent handed malformed input with no instruction invents a recovery, and a subagent's invented recovery is invisible to its caller until the output is wrong. Restored in `agent-audit`'s rubric as a SUGGESTION, in `agent-author`'s contract and both scope checklists as a required element, and as an `## Errors` section in all three templates. **`skill-author` Step 4 gains the one check the audit misses.** An empty body reports `PASS SKILL.md body word count 0` — a word gate cannot tell "concise" from "absent". Step 4 now hand-checks for a non-empty section, and its commit verification is conditioned on actually being inside a git worktree, which a skill under `~/.claude/skills/` is not. Also here: absolute repo paths removed from `skill-author`'s SKILL.md and contract.md in favour of naming the skill (`zoom-out`'s description is quoted inline instead of pointed at), the boundary-target universe documented to match the resolver, a two-hops-from-SKILL.md limit on reference chains, and `new-agent.sh`'s next-steps output naming the description budget and the deliberate absence of an agent body gate.

Defame1297	4a5c3c0cff	feat(kyberforge): enforce the ADR-0020 context contract for skills and agents ... Skill name+description pairs are preloaded into every session, costing ~6,200 tokens across 39 skills before any skill is invoked. The authoring rules mandated that growth: skill-author:104 and description-quality.md:21 both required padding, while skill-author:102 (the deflating rule) had no FAIL condition behind it. Gates (blocking, no baseline file): - description 250 chars SUGGESTION / 400 FAIL, measured on the folded YAML value - body-only 600 words SUGGESTION / 900 FAIL, independent of the unchanged whole-file 2770-word / 500-line spec backstop - every boundary-clause routing target must resolve to a real skill or agent; catches skill-improve, neuledge-context and gitea-labels - agents take the description gates but deliberately no body gate; a test pins that absence Vale: DescriptionOpener widened to ^This\b, new CompositionNote rule banning architecture notes from descriptions. 10 hits, 0 false positives. Kyberforge's own four skills retrofitted: descriptions 3,364 -> 938 chars (-72%), bodies 8,306 -> 2,487 words (-70%), all via the apm-workflow dispatch pattern. Fixes the skill-improve dangling route and the agent-author misroute to manual review. Also fixes a pre-existing false positive where any line-initial 'read ' was flagged as interactive input, which had already caused two scripts to be rewritten around it.

Defame1297	b8dc400365	fix: reap only our own jobs, and say why a vale probe missed ... batch_run ended with a bare wait, which blocks on every background job the calling shell has, not the ones it started. Harmless for all three current callers, but a future caller that backgrounds anything of its own would have batch_run block on it or consume its status. It now records each $! and reaps exactly those PIDs. The `wait "$pid" || true` there is load-bearing: unlike a bare wait, wait <pid> returns the job's status, so without it a single failing job would abort the set -e caller at the call site -- before run-tests.sh or sync-plugin-content.sh could read their .status files and print a summary. Status semantics stay in those files, exactly as before. check-vale-style-sync.sh's glob probe discarded vale's exit code and output and decided purely on a grep, so a failed exec, an OOM-killed vale or a full TMPDIR was indistinguishable from a real glob defect -- both printed "its glob sections do not cover a path" with no evidence. A flake seen once in this probe could not be diagnosed afterwards for that reason. The probe now attaches vale's rc and output: a genuine glob defect reads "vale exited 0 ... in 0 files", a killed vale reads "vale exited 137; output: <empty>". That flake was investigated and not reproduced -- 1680 probes across three contention setups including an offline namespace, all clean -- so nothing is changed speculatively. The misattribution is worth recording: it was reported against tests/test-vale-wrap.sh, which never invokes this script; the assertion belongs to check-vale-style-sync.sh and reaches a log through a different suite. Also drops the last stale field roster from agent-author's scaffolder. Its next-steps hint enumerated "(name, description, model, body only)" -- omitting disallowedTools, and never accurate anyway, since the template marks only description and the body FILL IN. Its --help carried the inverted form, already missing six forbidden fields. Both now state the shape rule and point at field-inventory.md, and a bats case enforces all-or-nothing: name every allowlisted field or name none, since a partial roster is the shape that goes stale silently.

Defame1297	f4bb1cf4e5	docs: finish reconciling the agent write fence across the toolchain ... The previous round taught agent-audit's validator to permit disallowedTools but left the skill that writes agents still forbidding it, in six places. Running agent-author on any of the three fenced orchestrators would have stripped the fence, and nothing would have caught it: the validator's allowlist is a permit list, so an absent field passes. The template was the worst of them, since its comment is copied verbatim into every new plugin-scope agent. Where a list had to be restated it is now a pointer to field-inventory.md's apm-agent-allowlist instead -- the same data validate.sh reads -- because a roster copied into a template goes stale one step further out than the roster itself. Where the text has to teach something it teaches the shape rule rather than the exception: tools is an allowlist whose vocabulary differs per harness, so verbatim copy makes one value wrong on one target; disallowedTools is a denylist, where an unrecognised name denies nothing, so the worst case is a missing fence rather than a wrongly granted capability. ADR-0016's amendment claimed an unrecognised key is inert on Copilot while the same ADR's Context says that behaviour is unconfirmed by research -- asserting as settled the exact thing it flags as unknown, and justifying it with apm's compile-time behaviour, which says nothing about Copilot's runtime. It is rewritten into labelled tiers: confirmed for Claude Code with citations, inferred by analogy for Copilot with the analogy's limits stated, unverified where it is unverified, and the residual risk accepted explicitly with its blast radius. It also no longer claims to restore a write sandbox: the denylist does not deny Bash, which these agents inherit and legitimately need. docs/hooks.md called the old root hooks.json a stale sync artifact -- it was added in the plugin's creating commit and pointed at by main's Copilot manifest -- and claimed both ecosystems now resolve hooks/hooks.json. Copilot does not: its hooks field has no default and no compiled manifest declares one, so it resolves nothing. Recorded as the gap it is, with re-injection noted as a follow-up rather than asserted away. Its event list is marked partial. Also: new-agent.bats asserted a hardcoded four-field allowlist and would have rejected a scaffolded agent carrying the field the ADR now blesses; it reads field-inventory.md too. And ADR-0016's premise that Claude's tools: is space-separated was wrong -- it takes a comma-separated string or a YAML list. The incompatibility with Copilot is the vocabulary, not the punctuation.

Defame1297	430f46b8e8	docs: correct the claims this review found false ... AGENTS.md told an offline agent to push with SKIP=apm-marketplace-check and asserted that hook was "the only one whose failure mode is 'no network'". Running all 12 pre-push hooks under a network namespace shows two fail, for one shared cause: apm-pack-check-clean resolves the same remote entry. An exact pin does not remove the ls-remote, so both hooks are named now. AGENTS.md also said everything in a plugin root except .apm/ is generated. Plugin roots carry hand-authored README.md, docs/, bin/, sources.md and .mcp.json, so an agent would hunt for an .apm/ source that does not exist or refuse the edit. The rule is positional: immunity belongs to the plugin root, and anything inside a mirrored directory is still rm -rf'd. ADR-0017 said apm strips a hooks field. The real loop is (agents, skills, commands, instructions) -- hooks absent, instructions never mentioned -- and it can never fire, because synthesize_plugin_json_from_apm_yml only emits the eight identity fields. The decision stands; the mechanism was overstated. Its mcpServers amendment is rewritten for the pointer payload and now records the real reason: inlining bypassed apm's credential sanitizer. ADR-0015's owner.email and version-pin passages are corrected against the apm source, and ADR-0016 gains the disallowedTools amendment. agent-audit's allowlist is data, so it gains disallowedTools too -- the ADR and the validator that enforces it had come apart. architecture.md described a root CLAUDE.md that imports two files (it imports one, plus an RTK block) and pointed at an ADR index that does not exist. Seven skill READMEs listed tests/ files the mirror strips, promising installed users files their install lacks; those rows are marked source-only, with the depth-4 template tests explicitly called out as surviving. And plugins/kyberforge/hooks/README.md, deleted during the conversion and preserved nowhere, is restored to a path the mirror does not own -- verified by running a sync against a scratch copy.

Defame1297	7910b8b12c	docs(kyberforge): fix path drift and content gaps from apm conversion ... 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.

Defame1297	5e232503c4	feat(kyberforge): execute plugin-to-apm marketplace conversion ... 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.
