Summary

Two new skills for the kyberforge plugin, designed to complete the plugin lifecycle factory alongside the existing skill-author and agent-author skills.

plugin-author

Manages plugin scaffold and configuration — not plugin content (skills, agents, hooks).

Scope:

Create: scaffold new plugin (plugin.json + .claude-plugin/plugin.json + empty skills/, agents/, hooks/, bin/ dirs) via scripts/new-plugin.sh <name> <repo-root>
Update: modify manifest fields, syncing shared fields across both manifests in one pass
Release: bump version in both manifests → validate → HITL gate → claude plugin tag --push
Validate: runs inline before tagging

Key conventions established:

Both Claude Code (.claude-plugin/plugin.json) and Copilot CLI (plugin.json) manifests maintained in sync
Shared fields (name, description, version, author, license, keywords) always updated in both manifests
Version parity: version field present in both manifests (new convention — existing plugins need backfill)
Opinionated scaffold defaults with FILL_IN_* placeholders

Files to create:

plugins/kyberforge/skills/plugin-author/SKILL.md
plugins/kyberforge/skills/plugin-author/scripts/new-plugin.sh
plugins/kyberforge/skills/plugin-author/references/manifest-fields.md
plugins/kyberforge/skills/plugin-author/references/sources.md
plugins/kyberforge/skills/plugin-author/README.md
plugins/kyberforge/skills/plugin-author/scripts/README.md
plugins/kyberforge/skills/plugin-author/references/README.md
plugins/kyberforge/skills/plugin-author/tests/README.md
docs/adr/0016-plugin-version-parity.md
Update CONTEXT.md with "Plugin scaffold" and "Version parity" glossary terms
Backfill version field into plugins/kyberforge/plugin.json and plugins/bin/plugin.json

marketplace-author

Manages marketplace entries — not plugin files.

Scope:

Add: add a plugin entry to the marketplace (supports all source types: local path, GitHub object, git URL, npm)
Remove: remove an entry
Update: modify an existing entry (version, description, source)
Validate: claude plugin validate . — runs inline
Always updates both .claude-plugin/marketplace.json and .github/plugin/marketplace.json in the same pass
No script — purely agentic
Does NOT manage claude plugin marketplace add (runtime setup, not authoring)

Files to create:

plugins/kyberforge/skills/marketplace-author/SKILL.md
plugins/kyberforge/skills/marketplace-author/references/manifest-fields.md
plugins/kyberforge/skills/marketplace-author/references/sources.md
plugins/kyberforge/skills/marketplace-author/README.md
plugins/kyberforge/skills/marketplace-author/references/README.md
plugins/kyberforge/skills/marketplace-author/tests/README.md

Acceptance criteria

plugin-author SKILL.md routes correctly across create / update / release branches
new-plugin.sh is file-by-file no-op, produces both manifests with correct opinionated fields
Version parity enforced in script output and documented in ADR-0016
marketplace-author SKILL.md handles all four source types in the add flow
Both skills update their respective mirror files in the same edit pass
CONTEXT.md updated with new glossary terms
skill-audit passes on both new skills
