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- plugin-author/marketplace-author are superseded per ADR-0015 with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
Refs: #91
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.

## Why
The UPDATE flow only bumped version when the version field itself was the
target. Metadata changes (description, keywords, author) went out without a
version bump, making them invisible to consumers with a cached copy.

## Why
Several small quality issues accumulated across plugin-author and
marketplace-author: the plugin-author description was ambiguous about
scope, the ADD flow asked an unnecessary clarifying question when local
path is the obvious default, VALIDATE had redundant wording already
captured inline, the keywords field was missing from the validation
checklist, and tests/README.md was a placeholder with nothing to test.
## Implementation Notes
- plugin-author: tightened description scope to "inside those
directories"; added `keywords` identical-in-both-manifests check to
VALIDATE checklist.
- marketplace-author: moved reserved-prefix constraint from gotchas
into the ADD checklist item; replaced the four-option prompt with a
default+escape-hatch ("I'll treat this as local path — is that right?");
folded the validate-from-root note inline and removed trailing padding;
deleted tests/README.md — no scripts/ directory exists, so the
placeholder was noise.
- README.md: removed the tests/README.md row from the file table.
## Why
The manifest-fields tables in both skills used imprecise labels ("CC-only",
"Copilot-only") that conflated two distinct reasons a field appears in only
one manifest: platform constraint (the other tool does not support the field
at all) versus repo convention (both tools support it, but the scaffold places
it in one manifest by design). This caused agents to treat convention
boundaries as hard platform constraints, producing unnecessary errors when
updating manifests for dual-tool repos.
Provenance was also incomplete: sources.md files were missing entries for
sources that had been consulted and were already contributing to SKILL.md
and manifest-fields.md content, making the evidence chain unverifiable.
## Implementation Notes
Field classification now uses three explicit categories — shared, platform
(one tool does not support the field), and convention (both tools support it;
scaffold places it in one manifest by design). The distinction matters because
convention fields may legitimately appear in the other manifest when there is
a deliberate reason; platform fields may not.
New gotchas added to plugin-author: agent files silently ignore hooks,
mcpServers, and permissionMode frontmatter; claude plugin tag --push requires
a clean working tree; --dry-run preview before tagging; --strict flag on
validate. New gotchas in marketplace-author: metadata object as Copilot CLI
canonical location for top-level fields; strict: false for dual-tool plugins;
sha takes precedence over ref for pinning; --strict flag on validate.
tests/ removed from plugin-author because new-plugin.sh has no branching
logic warranting a bats suite at this stage.
## Impact
Skill prompt changes only — no runtime code affected. Agents using these
skills will now correctly distinguish convention from constraint when deciding
which manifest to update for a given field.

## Why
Plugin and marketplace management had no governed authoring path. Creating or
updating a plugin required knowing the dual-manifest convention, version parity
rules, and directory skeleton by memory — nothing enforced consistency or guided
the process.
`/plugin-author` closes that gap by owning the full plugin scaffold lifecycle:
create, update, rename, and release. `/marketplace-author` handles the
marketplace-facing side: register, deregister, and update plugin entries in
`marketplace.json`.
ADR-0016 codifies the version parity convention (identical `version` in both
`plugin.json` and `.claude-plugin/plugin.json`) that `/plugin-author` now
enforces. The two plugin.json files in this repo are backfilled to comply
(keys also sorted to pass the pretty-format-json hook). CONTEXT.md gains
glossary entries for "plugin scaffold" and "version parity" so future agents
have shared vocabulary for these concepts.
## Implementation Notes
`/plugin-author` ships a `scripts/new-plugin.sh` scaffold script that generates
the directory skeleton and both manifests in one shot; the skill calls the script
rather than generating files ad hoc so the scaffold is reviewable and repeatable.
Version parity is an invariant, not a suggestion — the skill will fail loudly
on create/update if the two versions would diverge.
