parse_contributing_files documented that callers depend on None vs [], because a
parse failure returning [] would silently disable the check. Only check 8
honoured it; checks 4/5 (skill-audit) and 3/4 (agent-audit) used a truthiness
test, so an unreadable block disabled them without a word.
Two live corpus entries were skipping this way. A sweep of all 32 sources.md
found 134 entries, exactly 2 parsing to None, both in gitea-files: one heading
carried an inline parenthetical that defeated both regexes, and one (none) was
written without its leading bullet. Also pins EMPTY_SOURCE_KEYS_RE to the two
indents parse_source_keys actually reads.
agent-audit had no INFO tier at all, so it gains one rather than reporting a
check that could not run as a FAIL.

484357a taught the Contributing parser the bullet form, but a block it still
could not parse returned the same empty result as an explicit "(none)", so the
checker read "no contributing files" and skipped check 8 rather than reporting
that it could not tell. Checks 7 and 8 were consequently dead across the whole
git plugin without anything failing.
The parser now distinguishes "declared none" from "could not parse", which
wakes both checks. Because the parser is duplicated between the skill-audit and
agent-audit copies, it is fenced with BEGIN/END markers and a test hashes the
two regions so the copies cannot drift apart again silently.
Addresses #111.
validate-provenance.sh matched Contributing files only as a single inline
line beginning "- **Contributing files:**". Seven skills write it as a
bare "**Contributing files:**" heading above a bullet list, so
parse_contributing_files returned None and checks 4 (contributing file
exists) and 5 (bidirectional source_keys) silently verified nothing on
git-branches, git-remotes, git-submodules, git-workflow, git-worktrees,
gitea-files and gitea-releases.
Those are among the skills this branch changed most — git-branches alone
gained five reference files — and the retrofit's mandatory sources.md
collateral went in unchecked. Demonstrated rather than argued: planting a
nonexistent contributing path in git-remotes yields 0 findings under the
old parser and 1 FAIL under the new one.
Both forms are now accepted. The bullet form is parsed per bullet rather
than by splitting a joined value, because its per-file notes contain
commas that would otherwise be read as path separators. The return type
becomes a list of note-stripped paths, with "(none)" as an empty list and
an absent entry as None, so the two callers no longer re-split a string.
Applied to agent-audit's copy as well. No agent ships a sources.md today,
so it is latent there, but it is the same defect.
This is a third gate blind spot alongside #117 and #118, and was unfiled.
One real defect surfaced immediately and is fixed separately.
Refs #99
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.
