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.

Adds repo-root .vale.ini plus a custom Kyberforge style (description-opener,
vague-wording, and generic reference-pointer padding rules) and a
KyberforgeCopilot style scoped to .agent.md files (Use proactively check).
skill-audit and agent-audit Step 1 now run vale against the specific file(s)
being audited and defer the corresponding Description/Patterns/Body checks
to its output instead of re-deriving them by LLM judgment, per the split
proposed in issue #84.
Closes#84

skill-audit/agent-audit now proactively trigger after a skill/agent
file is hand-edited outside skill-author/agent-author, not just on
explicit request — closing a gap from this session where a fork's
direct edits to agent-author/agent-audit shipped without their own
inline audit until forge was invoked to check afterward.
Also: plugin-author gains a gotcha on claude plugin validate --strict
auto-discovering every .md under agents/ regardless of manifest
declarations (ADR-0010); agent-audit's dimension count and
validate-provenance.sh's --help now match actual behavior.

Independent skill-audit clean-check surfaced that the dimension-mapping
list and manual-fallback checklist both skipped the counterpart-missing
case, which validate.sh already treats as a hard FAIL.

`claude plugin validate --strict` auto-discovers every .md under a
plugin's agents/ directory as an agent requiring frontmatter, so the
provenance file there always needs fake agent frontmatter to pass
validation. Confirmed empirically that an explicit `agents` manifest
array can't suppress this discovery. Move the file to <plugin-root>/
sources.md instead, and update agent-author/agent-audit accordingly.
Adds ADR-0010, partially superseding ADR-0005's `agents/sources.md`
convention. Fixes#63.

- agent-author: convert template comments from YAML (#) to HTML (<!-- -->)
- Easier to spot and distinguish from functional comments
- Add explicit "Delete template comments before shipping" reminders
- Update SKILL.md Steps 2-3 with removal instruction
- agent-audit: add comment-discipline check
- Flag excessive frontmatter documentation comments as padding
- Mirrors skill-audit's body-discipline principle
- Update coverage line to include comment-discipline dimension
This ensures agents follow the same comment-cleanup discipline as skills,
preventing template documentation from shipping with agent definitions.

Remove phantom cross-file name-match claim from SKILL.md manual fallback
list (validate.sh has no such check). Fix broken bats stem-mismatch test
to overwrite the Copilot file instead of the CC file, exercising the
actual Copilot stem check.

- Fix validate.sh: remove incorrect name==stem check for CC files (CC docs say filename need not match name field); keep check for Copilot CLI only
- Fix validate.sh: plugin scope detection now checks both plugin.json and .claude-plugin/plugin.json
- Fix validate.sh: Copilot cloud/IDE agents (.github/copilot/agents/) have name as optional; path-based guard added
- Add validate.sh checks: Copilot body length >30,000 chars (SUGGESTION), Copilot-only fields in CC files (FAIL), subagent-unavailable tools in tools field (SUGGESTION)
- Add references/description-quality.md as conditional escape hatch for borderline description findings
- SKILL.md: name five audit dimensions in description; sharpen indirect-trigger phrasing
- SKILL.md: label pair-mandate as kyberforge project convention, not platform requirement
- SKILL.md: scope redundant name-match/body-empty checks to manual fallback only
- SKILL.md: add conditional reference to description-quality.md; update provider-safety description for new check categories; fix plugin scope gotcha to mention .claude-plugin/plugin.json
- SKILL.md: add INFO tier to result block template
- Add source_keys frontmatter to references/README.md; update sources.md to add description-quality.md to contributing files

## Why
agent-author produces agents/sources.md at plugin scope to record which
research sources informed which agent files. agent-audit had no way to
validate this chain, leaving stale or missing provenance undetected.
## Implementation Notes
Validation is per-pair (the given agent file + its counterpart) rather
than plugin-wide, keeping the scope consistent with validate.sh. The
script exits 0 silently for non-plugin-scope agents.
source_keys is top-level in both CC .md and Copilot .agent.md files
(not under metadata:) to avoid conflict with Copilot's own metadata
field semantics. Checks 0, 1, 2, 4, 5, 6 mirror the skill provenance
set; upstream research-doc cross-reference checks (7, 8) are deferred.
agent-author Steps 2, 3, and 4 updated to formally specify the
agents/sources.md format and instruct authors to add source_keys to
both files when research sources are in context.

## Why
agent-author produces paired agent definition files (Claude Code .md +
Copilot .agent.md) but had no companion audit skill to validate them.
agent-audit fills that gap, giving the same structured PASS/FAIL report
that skill-audit provides for SKILL.md files.
## Implementation Notes
- validate.sh uses scope detection (walk up for plugin.json / .git) to
locate the counterpart file and determine whether plugin-silently-ignored
fields (hooks, mcpServers, permissionMode) should be flagged
- CC-only and silently-ignored field lists are read from
references/field-inventory.md at runtime rather than hardcoded —
provenance back to the research corpus; see ADR-0019
- Single-file invocation (pass either file, counterpart derived) chosen
over directory or name+root — see ADR-0018
- 12 bats tests cover provider detection, scope detection, all FAIL paths,
and clean-pair pass
## Impact
- kyberforge bumped to v1.1.2
- agent-author close step should be updated to reference agent-audit (#11)
- Provenance/sources chain check deferred to #60
