bin and kyberforge had empty keywords: [], and no plugin set homepage or
repository despite the schema supporting both and the repo having one
canonical Gitea remote -- flagged by an apm-docs-vs-repo audit following
issue #90's plugin->apm conversion.
Compiled .claude-plugin/plugin.json and .github/plugin/plugin.json were
regenerated via scripts/sync-plugin-content.sh to carry the new fields.
Refs: #90
apm pack silently skips regenerating plugin.json when it already exists
("already exists; skipping plugin.json generation. Re-run with --force to
overwrite it."). sync-plugin-content.sh never passed --force, so
.claude-plugin/plugin.json and .github/plugin/plugin.json were written
once on first sync and never refreshed again -- a name/version/description
edit in a plugin's apm.yml would silently stop propagating, with no gate
catching it (check-manifests.sh only checks presence; check-plugin-content-
sync explicitly excludes plugin.json; apm-pack-check-clean is scoped to
marketplace.json only).
Pass --force on real-mode syncs only (--check must not mutate the plugin
root, so plugin.json staleness there stays a known, undetected gap until
the next real sync -- documented in the script's header comment).
Regenerating surfaced a second, unrelated bug: apm's writer and
pretty-format-json's --autofix disagree on JSON key order (semantic vs.
alphabetical), so every real sync would otherwise flip plugin.json's key
order right back after a commit re-alphabetized it. Excluded the four
apm-generated manifests (plugin.json x2, marketplace.json x2) from
pretty-format-json -- their exact formatting is dictated by apm's own
writer as compiled output, not this repo's generic JSON prettifier.
Verified idempotent: a second real sync after this fix produces zero
further diff.
Refs: #90
Uncomment marketplace.outputs.codex in apm.yml. Codex output requires
every package to declare a category -- added one per package (Developer
Tools / Utilities / Version Control / Productivity, matching each
plugin's actual scope).
Re-running apm pack after enabling codex auto-synced 'codex' into each
local package's own targets: list (apm.yml, per plugin) -- packages
belonging to a marketplace that publishes a codex output need to declare
codex as a supported compile target for that to be coherent. Verified
idempotent: a second apm pack --check-clean run makes no further changes.
.claude-plugin/marketplace.json regenerated (now carries category per
plugin); .agents/plugins/marketplace.json is the new codex artifact.
Refs: #90
Claude Code's (and Copilot's) native plugin installer has zero awareness of
.apm/ nesting -- it convention-scans only flat skills/, agents/, commands/,
hooks.json at each plugin's root. Confirmed via strings on the installed
claude binary and live installs of git@holocron/gitea@holocron/kyberforge@
holocron, all reporting Skills(0) Agents(0) Hooks(0) post ADR-0015's apm
conversion. Root cause (apm_cli/core/plugin_manifest.py): apm's plugin.json
compiler deliberately strips skills/agents/commands keys, assuming the host
already auto-discovers those convention directories -- it has no model of
.apm/ being host-visible at all. Separately, apm's own bundle exporter
(apm_cli/bundle/plugin_exporter.py, behind `apm pack --format plugin`)
implements the correct .apm/ -> flat mapping, but only ever targeted
build/<name>-<version>/, a path nothing in marketplace.json's source: points
at.
scripts/sync-plugin-content.sh wraps that bundle exporter and copies its
agents/, skills/, commands/, instructions/, extensions/, and merged
hooks.json back into each plugin's own root as a second tracked
compiled-output category -- same governance status as
.claude-plugin/plugin.json: generated from .apm/, never hand-edited. tests/
subdirectories are excluded from the mirror (dev fixtures, not host-visible
runtime content; several hardcode a relative repo-root walk-up sized for the
.apm/-nested depth, which breaks when duplicated one level shallower).
Applied for real across all 6 plugins and verified two ways: `claude plugin
validate --strict` passes on every real plugin directory, and a live
`claude --plugin-dir <path> -p "list skills/agents"` behavioral test
confirms content is now actually discovered.
Also, from the same issue #90 review round:
- scripts/check-manifests.sh pointed at each plugin's root-level plugin.json
(checking skills/hooks/mcpServers/agents pointer fields) -- that file was a
stale near-duplicate of .claude-plugin/plugin.json nothing else read or
wrote, now deleted across all 6 plugins. check-manifests.sh is rewritten to
validate .claude-plugin/plugin.json instead, and drops the pointer-field
checks entirely (nothing to check -- those fields are correctly absent by
design). Content-presence drift is now check-plugin-content-sync's job, a
new pre-push hook wired in .pre-commit-config.yaml.
docs/adr/0017 records the root cause and decision in full, including two
rejected alternatives (patching plugin.json's path fields directly -- apm's
compiler strips them on every run; pointing marketplace.json at apm pack's
build/ output -- a version-suffixed non-source directory nothing can install
from without an extra build step). ADR-0015 and CONTEXT.md are updated to
point at it.
Refs: #90
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.

Addresses 7 verified findings from the /code-review pass on PR #91's
APM-conversion changes:
- apm-workflow's description omitted install triggers, misrouting
"install my apm dependencies" requests to apm-install instead
- `apm marketplace check` was listed under both the marketplace and
audit dispatch rows, breaking the "one reference file per action"
contract; kept under marketplace.md, its real usage-sequence home
- ADR-0015 claimed apm-workflow docs are generic/repo-agnostic while
marketplace.md cited this repo's AGENTS.md and git-commits/
git-remotes skills by name; stripped the holocron-specific
citations (marketplace.md, compile.md) so the claim now holds
- plugin-author/marketplace-author are superseded per ADR-0015 with
deletion deferred to #90; added deprecation notices pointing to
the replacing apm-workflow dispatch actions
- apm-orchestrate/gitea-orchestrate/git-orchestrate all instruct
dispatch "via Skill" without granting the Skill tool; added it to
all three
- apm-orchestrate mandated strictly sequential fan-out across
independent packages with no shared state; relaxed to permit
parallel dispatch, matching this repo's own subagent-parallelization
guidance

gitea 1.3.2 -> 1.3.3. The round-1 Vale corpus fix (3324a73) changed
shipped skill content (gitea-issues, gitea-prs, gitea-releases SKILL.md)
without touching this plugin's manifests, so installed copies would keep
serving the old content from cache. Every other plugin whose content
changed in this PR got this bump (bin, kyberforge, lint, four times
total) — gitea was missed each time.
Marketplace entries carry no per-plugin version, so both marketplace.json
files are untouched, matching prior version-bump commits in this PR.
Refs: #85
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.

Deferred item from PR #85 review. Per ADR-0013: cherry-picks two low-noise
rules from trialing write-good/alex against the real corpus (VagueQualifier,
SentenceOpenerThereIs) into styles/Kyberforge rather than adopting either
package wholesale (both are tuned for blog prose and were noisy on this
repo's terse, imperative instruction files - see the ADR's rejected-rule
list). Adds a new skill-size-check pre-commit hook enforcing agentskills.io's
500-line/5,000-token SKILL.md ceiling, currently unenforced. Fixes the 28
resulting violations across 20 existing SKILL.md/agent files so the
enforcing pre-commit hook lands clean.
governance.md/CONTROLS.md were evaluated and excluded as rule sources -
they're org/CI-infrastructure controls, not prose patterns Vale can express.

plugins/bin loses a whole skill (gitea removed) — minor bump (1.0.5 ->
1.1.0) to reflect the capability-surface change. plugins/gitea gains a
reference file and a README fix, no new capability — patch bump
(1.3.1 -> 1.3.2).

The deep-module split in plugins/gitea/ (ADR 0011) already covers every
domain the old plugins/bin/skills/gitea/ flat skill handled. Move its
token-access.md into plugins/gitea/references/ first, since it held
empirical scope-test results (Actions/CI, Wiki, Notifications, Packages,
User/Org) not reproduced anywhere in the new plugin, then drop the old
skill and fix a stale cross-reference pointing at it.

scripts/install.sh hardcoded $REPO_ROOT/.git/hooks, which breaks under any
git worktree checkout (.git is a file there, not a directory) — this is
what blocks every worktree-based agent from pushing cleanly. Resolve the
hooks directory via `git rev-parse --git-path hooks` instead, normalizing
to an absolute path since git returns it relative to the queried repo root
for plain checkouts but absolute for worktrees.
Also drops `agents`/`skills` fields from plugins/bin, plugins/core, and
plugins/gitea plugin.json where the referenced directories don't exist on
main yet (bin never had an agents/ dir; core and gitea's real skill/agent
content is still pending merge from an in-flight branch) — these were
failing scripts/check-manifests.sh and blocking pushes for unrelated work.
