14248e04b9 docs: fix the review findings on the hook-contract retirement
Why: a review of 4de5b6b and 3c5f6a6 found seven places that still
described the retired external hook contract as current, or that could
pass without checking anything.

Implementation Notes:
- gates.md: drop the "one caveat below" pointer; the caveat is gone.
- SIMPLIFICATION-AUDIT.md: the §7 note now says all but one entry is
  closed and lists 36 (4de5b6b) as struck. Finding 2's count chain gets
  a closing note: pre-push is 8 repo-authored hooks (10 reported).
- .pre-commit-config.yaml: the check-vale-style-sync comment points at
  case 32 (one-plugin narrowing guard), not the deleted case 33.
- ADR-0014: the retirement pointer now covers the ADR-0025 amendment
  above it too, naming case 33 and the exported hook IDs. ADR-0022 gets
  a reciprocal amended-by note on its check-release-needed comparison.
  Historical body text is unchanged.
- test-vale-wrap.sh case 32: property 3 fails when a class's corpus
  regex matches no tracked file, instead of passing vacuously after a
  layout move. The corpus regexes are now globals so a new Part D can
  point them at a missing layout and require that failure.

4de5b6b355 chore(gates): retire the external pre-commit hook contract
Why: .pre-commit-hooks.yaml and its release-tag gate served external
consumers that do not exist. No repo on the Gitea instance pins these
hooks, and the README names apm as the only supported install path. The
mechanism was also already failing: skill-size-check.sh changed after
v2.0.1 with no tag cut, and the gate cannot fire through Gitea's merge
button. (Simplification audit finding 36.)

Implementation Notes:
- Delete .pre-commit-hooks.yaml, scripts/check-release-needed.sh,
  tests/test-check-release-needed.sh and tests/test-vale-hooks-consumer.sh,
  and remove the check-release-needed pre-push hook. The repo: local
  skill-size-check and vale-audit-prefilter-* hooks are unchanged.
- ADR-0014 is amended, not retired: its runtime decision to bundle Vale
  inside factory-audit stands. The amendment keeps the entry[0]-only
  constraint (LESSONS.md:101,105) in case the export returns. ADR-0025
  gets a pointer.
- test-vale-wrap.sh: drop case 33 (the cross-manifest drift check) and
  case 28's hook-scope half, which read the published manifest. Case 32
  now also requires each hook to select every tracked file of its class,
  which keeps case 33's one-plugin-narrowing guard, with a mutation test.
- test-skill-size-check.sh and test-adr0020-contract.sh now assert the
  hook contract and verbose: true on .pre-commit-config.yaml only.
- gates.md: pre-push count goes from 9 to 8 authored hooks (11 to 10
  reported), and the Release table, the External consumers section and
  the two-manifest scope table are removed. README and script/test
  comments no longer describe the export as live. The resolver comment
  is edited identically in both copies.
- The v1.0.0/v2.0.0/v2.0.1 tags are left in place; they are inert.

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.

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.

062ca47a18 docs: correct claims left stale by today's apm-only commits
A five-agent review of today's seven commits found no executable
regressions and no dangling references, but a set of documents still
asserting, in present tense, machinery that ADR-0024 and its commits
removed. This corrects them in place, keeping the original text as the
historical record wherever the repo's amendment convention applies.

LESSONS.md: the 2026-06-21 entry prescribed a `claude plugin validate`
sweep that now fails on every plugin, so it is marked superseded with
the surviving gates named. The 2026-08-09 entry gained a recurrence
note: today's manifest deletion broke apm's MCP propagation exactly as
that lesson describes, and its prescribed repo-local grep could not
have caught it, because `plugin_parser.py` ships in the apm toolchain
installed outside this repository.

ADR-0019, ADR-0011 and ADR-0021: amendments extended to passages the
earlier correction passes stepped over -- a dead native-consumer guard,
Consequences bullets still calling for a `plugins/gitea/.mcp.json` that
must not be recreated, and a drift-gate list naming a deleted script.
ADR-0021's list is down to one gate, not two: `apm audit --ci` never
read `description` and was never a drift gate.

architecture.md and enrichments.md: the self-containment constraint is
restated on its live source, the agentskills.io APM package-mode spec,
rather than on Claude Code's plugin cache-install, which ADR-0024
consequence 6 pins as a superseded rationale. releasing.md's pointer to
the deleted sync script is rewritten as history.

tests/run-bats.sh and scripts/lib/batch-run.sh: comment-only. The
`.claude/skills/` exclusion comment claimed a duplication that is not
live yet; apm does not strip `tests/`, and the deployed tree is empty
of them only because the lockfile still resolves the six dependencies
to a pre-ADR-0024 commit carrying the flat mirror. The exclusion is
correct but forward-looking, and now says so.

SIMPLIFICATION-AUDIT.md: reconciled against what the commits actually
did. Two closed findings recorded conclusions that ADR-0024 reversed
hours later; findings 1, 3, 31 and 35 carried prescriptions voided the
same day; finding 28 is now recorded as having moved backwards, with
docs/adr/ measured at +336 lines over the day. The section 1 headline
table is re-measured at a6434e0 and labelled with its basis. The
ADR-0012 contradiction between finding 2b and section 8 is resolved in
2b's favour after reading the ADR: only finding 24 is governed by it.

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.

36596598ef fix(tests): point the strict-mode dependency citation at README.md
Why: this branch moved the prerequisites list out of AGENTS.md into README.md
but left three references behind. The worst is run-tests.sh's --strict failure
message, which a developer is handed at the exact moment a push gate fails and
they need the dependency list: it named AGENTS.md, which no longer documents
vale, apm or jq anywhere. 56cc173 re-anchored this same class of citation in
.pre-commit-config.yaml, scripts/check-vale-style-sync.sh,
scripts/sync-marketplace-mirror.sh and tests/test-check-vale-style-sync.sh --
tests/run-tests.sh was missed, and it is the only one a human actually reads.

Implementation notes:
- run-tests.sh:262 (user-visible), run-tests.sh:16 (header rationale) and
  test-run-tests.sh:395 all now cite README.md's Prerequisites table, verified
  to name vale, apm, jq, python3/PyYAML and the claude CLI.
- Every assertion on this message greps for "a skip is a SETUP ERROR", which
  sits before the changed clause, so no test needed updating.
- test-vale-wrap.sh's bash 3.2 citation is corrected in the same pass: it
  credited LESSONS.md and the script headers, but LESSONS.md's only mention of
  3.2 is an aside inside an unrelated lesson, not a target declaration. It now
  cites scripts/lib/batch-run.sh and providers/claude-code/statusline-command.sh,
  which do declare it. The citation 56cc173 replaced was already false, so this
  finishes a half-fix rather than correcting a regression.

Impact: forced the strict-failure path with vale removed from PATH and confirmed
the corrected message printing -- 21 passed, 3 skipped, exit 1. Full suite with
vale present: 24 passed, 0 skipped, 0 failed.

56cc173f65 fix: re-anchor doc citations that the CONTEXT.md trim broke
Why: eight comments and one status note cited CONTEXT.md or AGENTS.md text that
b9c7762 and 1929ffd moved or deleted. All are inert at runtime, but they are the
rationale comments that tell the next maintainer why an assertion exists, and
they now name a file that no longer explains it.

Implementation notes: re-anchored by what the citation is for, not uniformly.
- Four sites quoted facts ADR-0013 owns — every rule is `level: error` with no
  ignorable tier (ADR-0013:59-70), and KyberforgeCopilot's `.agent.md`-only
  scope (ADR-0013:43-46). These now cite ADR-0013. ADRs are append-only here;
  the spec docs are refactored, which is what caused this rot.
- Two sites quoted the glob location-independence property, which no ADR owns.
  The quote was already inline and carried the full rationale, so the citation
  added a rot surface and no information — dropped, statement kept.
- sync-marketplace-mirror.sh's header attributed the mirror-not-a-profile fact
  to CONTEXT.md; the parenthetical beside it already carries the evidence, so
  the attribution is dropped rather than re-pointed.
- .pre-commit-config.yaml cited an AGENTS.md instruction that no longer exists;
  generalised to "the documented instruction".
- LESSONS.md:29 misquoted AGENTS.md's current session-start line.

Also corrects a pre-existing misattribution at tests/test-vale-wrap.sh:454:
AGENTS.md has never named bash 3.2 as a repo target (`git log -S'3.2'` on it is
empty). LESSONS.md and the script headers do.

Impact: no behaviour change. test-check-vale-style-sync.sh and test-vale-wrap.sh
both pass (42 passed, 0 failed).

49d21bcb4d fix(providers): guard the statusline's unguarded array expansion
`parts` is seeded empty and all seven appends are conditional, so
"${parts[@]}" at the join loop can expand an empty array. install.sh
deploys this file to every user machine.

Two things had to both hold for the bare form to be safe: this file
enabling no `set -u`, and the shell being bash 4.4+, which stopped
treating an empty-array expansion as unbound. On bash 3.2 -- macOS's
system bash, an explicit repo target -- adding `set -u` aborts here.
That is also why the hazard is unreproducible on a modern dev box and
why the enforcement is a static scan rather than a runtime test.

Adds the `providers` glob to test-vale-wrap.sh's bash-3.2 scan, which
excluded it precisely because of this defect. Floor is 1 rather than
"count minus slack": the glob holds one file, so any slack at all
means a floor of 0, which passes vacuously on a renamed directory.

Also adds case 27, the regression test for the stale `shellcheck
source=` directives fixed in the next commit (#97 item 2). It lives in
this file because that is where the exemption it guards lives.

413a750819 fix(scripts): close gates that passed while the thing they guard was disabled
Four repo gates reported success in states they exist to reject.

`check-vale-style-sync.sh` passed while a Kyberforge lint rule was silenced. The
check matched a blocklist of severity values, but Vale's semantic is an allowlist:
anything that is not exactly YES/error/warning/suggestion disables the rule. So
`= false`, `= 0`, `= garbage`, an empty value and — worst — a lowercase `= yes` all
killed enforcement while reading as "enabled" to a human. Inverted to an allowlist.
Two sibling holes: dropping `KyberforgeCopilot` from `BasedOnStyles` unloaded the
Copilot-only check silently, and narrowing a section glob to a location made Vale
lint zero files, which is the "0 files, hook Passed" failure the script's own
comment says it exists to catch.

`sync-marketplace-mirror.sh --check` failed open when its source was missing, while
its sibling correctly errored in the same state.

`check-scope-walkup-sync.sh` wrote to hardcoded `/tmp/fN.out` paths and read one
back, making it non-reentrant — a concurrent instance can flip a verdict, and this
branch made the test runner concurrent. Now per-run `mktemp -d`.

`check-manifests.sh` had no disk-to-marketplace pass, so a plugin directory absent
from `marketplace.json` passed every gate while the `validate-plugins` hook globbed
it. The "listed" match is restricted to remote-source entry names; matching any
entry name let a genuine orphan through on a name coincidence.

`run-bats.sh` reported an empty TAP stream as `0 tests, 0 failures`, exit 0 — a
total harness failure reading as a pass.

The test-side changes are the larger half, because the guards were the real problem.
`test-sync-marketplace-mirror.sh` could overwrite the live tracked mirror under an
inherited GIT_DIR, which is precisely the git-hook context it runs in. The bash-3.2
scan hand-maintained its file list, omitting the new shared runner, and had no rule
for `wait -n` or `nproc` — the two hazards the previous review round found live. It
now derives 43 files across three globs with per-glob floors. Several assertions
were decoration: the concurrency checks caught the reentrancy defect 0 times in 10,
the leak fix was green either way, and two manifest fixtures passed with the code
they claimed to cover deleted. Every assertion now has a revert it provably fails
against.

e79497b3cf fix(tests): guard remaining bash 3.2 hazards from PR #95 review
Review findings #5 and #7 on PR #95 flagged two bash-3.2-incompatible
patterns despite the surrounding scripts claiming 3.2 safety:

- tests/run-bats.sh used `mapfile` (bash 4.0+), which fails immediately
  under macOS's stock bash 3.2 before any batching logic runs. Replaced
  with the `while read` loop already established in tests/run-tests.sh,
  and guarded the two downstream `${TEST_FILES[@]}` expansions with
  `${arr[@]+"${arr[@]}"}` to match that file's convention.

- `trap 'rm -rf "${CLEANUP_DIRS[@]}"' EXIT` was unguarded in
  tests/test-sync-marketplace-mirror.sh and
  tests/test-sync-plugin-content.sh: under `set -u`, if `mktemp -d`
  fails before the array is populated, the trap itself throws an
  unbound-variable error that masks the real test failure. A repo-wide
  grep for the same pattern turned up a third, unreviewed instance in
  tests/test-check-release-needed.sh. Fixed all three with the guarded
  idiom already used elsewhere in the repo.

Extended the existing bash-3.2-hazard static check (test 16 in

so a regression of either pattern fails the suite instead of only
surfacing on a real bash 3.2 host.

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.

389a4f0f7a fix(lint): avoid bash 4 associative arrays in check-vale-style-sync.sh
check-vale-style-sync.sh used `declare -A` for a per-skill regex cache.
Associative arrays are bash 4.0+; this script runs as an always-run
pre-push hook with `language: system`, so it inherits whatever bash is
first on the invoking user's PATH. On macOS's stock bash 3.2, `declare -A`
at top level aborts immediately under `set -euo pipefail` — every push
would hard-fail before the sync check ran anything.

Replaced with two parallel indexed arrays (HOOK_REGEX_CACHE_KEYS/_VALS),
linear-scanned by index — same caching behavior (avoids re-parsing both
pre-commit manifests when agent-audit is probed twice), but only ever
uses ${#arr[@]} and index access, never a bare ${arr[@]} expansion.

Extended test-vale-wrap.sh's existing bash-3.2 hazard sweep to scan this
file too, and added a check for `declare -A` itself — it previously only
caught unguarded ${arr[@]} expansions and mapfile/readarray, so this
exact regression had no test that would have caught it.

ad1e5aaa9b fix(kyberforge): carry apostrophes verbatim through a |- literal block
The flattener's last-resort branch rewrote ASCII ' to U+2019, justified as the
one combination no YAML scalar can carry verbatim. That claim was false: a |-
literal block with a single indented content line carries ', ", \ and ": "
verbatim and keeps text.frontmatter.description matching — as the wrapper's own
docstring already said of literal blocks. The rewrite fired on 12 of 54
in-scope files, silently disabling every rule whose token contains an
apostrophe. Case 20 pinned only that the scope stayed alive, so it passed
either way.

The emission site now splits the emitted scalar on its first newline so a
carried-over trailing comment stays on the "description: |-" header line rather
than becoming part of the value, and pads by span_lines - 1 - newlines. The pad
stays non-negative because the branch is only reachable when the original span
is at least two lines. Verified across all 73 in-scope files: no line-count
changes, and exactly the 12 expected files take the new branch.

One reported position moves: an alert on a description that is itself flagged
shifts from the key line to the block's content line, both inside the original
span. YAML cannot put a literal block's content on the key's own line, so this
is unavoidable; no line at or after the end of any description span moves.

Also: --output no longer absolutises the built-in style names line, JSON and
CLI, which a same-named file or directory in cwd turned into a template path
(exit 2, E100 Runtime error). And case 19's empty-baseline guard no longer
lets five dependent comparisons print vacuous passes — while fixing it the
guard turned out to be unreachable, since under pipefail an alert-free report
aborted the script at the assignment.

aa8cc22695 fix(lint): flatten every multi-line description form in vale-wrap.sh
Vale locates a frontmatter description by matching the parsed YAML value back
against the source text, so any scalar whose value is not spelled out verbatim
loses the `text.frontmatter.description` scope entirely. The wrapper only
flattened `>` folded scalars, so plain, double-quoted and single-quoted
multi-line descriptions silently reported zero alerts and exit 0 — a clean pass
indistinguishable from a real one, in a prefilter whose callers are instructed
not to re-derive its verdict by judgment.

Implementation notes:

- Classify the scalar kind after `^description:[ \t]*` and reuse one shared
  continuation-line generator for every form; `|` literal blocks keep their
  line breaks, stay verbatim-matchable, and are still left untouched.
- Emit the flattened value in whichever scalar form needs no escape at all
  (plain, then single-quoted, then double-quoted), because any escape breaks
  the verbatim match. The old blanket `'` -> U+2019 substitution silently made
  apostrophe-bearing rule tokens unmatchable across 63% of the corpus; it now
  survives only for the one combination no YAML scalar can carry verbatim.
- Terminate continuations at a line flush with the key, not only on a shallower
  indent — a `description:` followed by a flush-left line previously swallowed
  the rest of the frontmatter.
- Route vale's value-taking flags explicitly instead of inferring targets by
  file existence, and absolutize relative `--output`/`--path` values the way
  `--config` already was, since the run `cd`s into the scratch mirror.
- Fail loudly on a nonexistent path instead of inheriting bare vale's fallback
  to stdin, which rendered a typo'd path as `0 errors ... in stdin`, exit 0 —
  a form the callers' `0 files` NOT-RUN guard cannot match.
- Follow symlinks when walking a directory argument, matching bare vale.

16c038b178 fix(lint): guard empty array expansions in vale-wrap.sh for bash 3.2
Under set -u, "${arr[@]}" on an empty array aborts on bash before 4.4,
which is what macOS ships as /bin/bash. Three expansion sites now use
${arr[@]+"${arr[@]}"} consistently.

The hazard is not currently reachable: verified on a bash 3.2.57 built
from source that all seven invocation shapes succeed against the
previous code, including zero args, flags-only and an empty directory.
vale_args is provably non-empty at every site because the default
--config branch always appends first. The guard is kept because that
invariant is non-local and untested, so an edit to the default-config
branch would reintroduce a macOS-only crash silently.

Test fidelity is deliberately mixed. Case 16 is static and is the only
one that fails against the previous code, since no bash 5 host can
reproduce the abort at runtime. Case 17 runs the emptiest invocations
under the oldest bash it can find and names that shell in its output
so it cannot overclaim. Case 18 guards against the tempting wrong fix
of dropping the quotes, which also silences the abort but word-splits
a path containing a space.

No other bash 4.x construct is present; swept for mapfile, declare -A,
case modification, negative indices, globstar, wait -n and namerefs.

8c570e9659 fix(lint): make the Vale prefilter work for external consumers
pre-commit prefixes only entry[0] with the hook-repo clone path
(cmd = (prefix.path(cmd[0]), *cmd[1:])), so the --config argument in
.pre-commit-hooks.yaml resolved against the *consuming* repo's root
and hard-failed every external run with E100. Two of the three hooks
ADR-0014 promises were unusable.

vale-wrap.sh now self-locates its config from BASH_SOURCE when no
--config is supplied; an explicit --config still wins in all three
argv forms and stays cwd-relative. Both manifests drop the argument
and are kept byte-identical: the local repo: local config resolved
--config correctly only because the consuming repo *was* this repo,
and that divergence is why three review rounds missed the defect.

Also in the wrapper:
- replace GNU-only `realpath -m` with a portable abspath helper; -m is
  load-bearing (dest does not exist yet), so BSD realpath aborted the
  script under set -e on macOS
- walk directory arguments instead of passing them through unflattened,
  which reported a clean 0-error run for files that fail when named
  explicitly
- read/write with errors='surrogateescape' so one non-UTF-8 .md under a
  directory argument cannot abort the hook

New test-vale-hooks-consumer.sh builds the hook repo from the working
tree and points a file:// consumer at it, covering the manifest as a
hook repo for the first time.

1164f3abad fix(lint): make Vale prefilter portable via the plugin
skill-audit/agent-audit's Step 1 resolved vale-wrap.sh/.vale.ini via
`git rev-parse --show-toplevel`, which returns whichever repo the skill
happens to run in. Inside ai-development that works; in any external repo
that installs kyberforge@holocron as a plugin, it resolves to that repo's
own root, which has no .vale.ini — the prefilter silently fell back to
full LLM judgment. ADR-0013 named this as a deliberately deferred gap.

Vale's config/styles/wrapper now ship inside the plugin itself: a
canonical copy in agent-audit/assets/vale/ (Kyberforge + KyberforgeCopilot,
the superset agent-audit needs) and a smaller duplicate in
skill-audit/assets/vale/ (Kyberforge only) — per the no-cross-skill-path
rule already established for plugin cache-installs. Both skills resolve
these relative to their own directory, same as scripts/validate.sh
already does.

A new root .pre-commit-hooks.yaml exposes both copies plus
skill-size-check so any external repo can enforce the same rules via
`repo: <this-repo-url>, rev: <tag>` in its own pre-commit config,
independent of Claude Code entirely — the same mechanism covers CI. This
repo's own pre-commit hook now consumes the identical plugin-bundled
copies via repo: local (not a third root copy, and not a pinned
self-reference, which would lint working-tree edits against the last
tagged release instead of the change being made). Split into
vale-audit-prefilter-skill/-agent hooks after confirming, by diffing the
full corpus against both old and new config before deleting the old
files, that one combined hook pointed at only one copy silently 0-file-
skips the other file type.

scripts/check-vale-style-sync.sh guards the two copies against drift,
wired at pre-push alongside check-manifests.

149d564f6a fix(lint): make the Vale gate actually gate, drop VagueQualifier
Round-3 review of PR #85 found the "enforcing" pre-commit hook enforced
nothing. Vale's exit code keys on error-level alerts alone: five of the
six rules were level: warning, so they exited 0, and pre-commit hides
output from a passing hook — the alerts were invisible and blocked
nothing. ADR-0013 rejected a report-only trial tier and then shipped one
by accident.

Flatten every rule to level: error. Vale's own exit code is then correct,
so the hook entry drops to a bare vale-wrap.sh call and the graded
error->FAIL / warning->SUGGESTION mapping disappears from both audit
skills: every alert is a FAIL, in the gate and the audit alike. No
ignorable tier, matching shellcheck, the test suite and
conventional-pre-commit.

Delete Kyberforge.VagueQualifier. Measured against the 41 skill/agent
files as they stood before the rule ever ran: 2 hits. One marginal
("very different" -> "fundamentally different"), one an unfixable false
positive — caveman/SKILL.md quotes "of course" as an example of filler,
a mention not a use — which forced the only Vale suppression comments in
the repo. Those four lines go with it; two of them were dead anyway,
suppressing a frontmatter-scoped rule on a body line. Held-out prose (273
files) fired 15 times, 9 inside out-of-scope research examples and the
rest one word in two idioms in a single doc. SentenceOpenerThereIs
survives: 22 held-out hits, both in-corpus hits clean rewrites, zero
suppressions.

Widen .vale.ini's globs to [**/SKILL.md], [**/agents/*.md] and
[**/*.agent.md]. The plugins/*/-prefixed globs scoped nothing — Vale's *
crosses /, so they already matched docs/research/examples/**/agents/*.md
and assets/templates/SKILL.md, the two paths CONTEXT.md claimed they
excluded. Scoping is and was the hook's files: regex. The old globs also
hid a silent false negative: a skill outside plugins/ matched no section,
so Vale reported 0 files and exited 0, which both audits read as clean.
They now treat a 0-file run as NOT RUN and fall back to full judgment.

Also:
- vale-wrap.sh resolves relative --config values and file arguments
  against the caller's cwd, as vale does, instead of the repo root, which
  hard-errored from a subdirectory and silently skipped flattening for
  file args that did not resolve from the root. Absolute paths inside the
  cwd are relativized so reports cite resolvable paths, not scratch ones.
- vale-run's exit-code model was documented backwards ("exits non-zero
  whenever it finds an alert at or above MinAlertLevel") and would have
  led anyone following it to build a gate that passes everything. Its
  Markdown suppression syntax was MDX-only and does not suppress in .md;
  corrected in the skill and its troubleshooting reference, with
  backtick/fence exemption documented as the first resort.
- skill-size-check.sh fails only above 500 lines, agreeing with
  skill-audit's validate.sh <= 500 pass.
- ADR-0013 and CONTEXT.md amended to match, recording why graded
  severities cannot gate.

Verified: 9 test scripts / 15 vale-wrap cases pass; vale-audit-prefilter,
skill-size-check and shellcheck pass --all-files; check-manifests and
claude plugin validate --strict clean. New tests fail against the old
script (3 of them) and pass against the new one.

792d3e1852 fix(lint): resolve round-1 and round-2 review findings on the Vale prefilter
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.

bbb0dcd21a fix(lint): flatten multi-line frontmatter descriptions before Vale runs
Vale's text.frontmatter.description scope silently stops matching once
the description is a YAML block scalar spanning 2+ physical lines —
the style used by most skills/agents in this repo. scripts/vale-wrap.sh
flattens the description to one line in a scratch copy (preserving the
repo-relative path and total line count) before invoking real vale, and
both audit skills plus the pre-commit hook now call it instead of vale
directly. Also tightens the pre-commit hook's file glob to single path
segments so it can't cross into docs/research examples or asset
templates the way the audit skills' scoped invocations already avoid.

Addresses PR #85 review feedback.
