improve.md still required a retrofit before extending but lost the procedure with retrofit.md. Restore the ordered cuts inline, and fix the stale hook name and plugin-mode wording in skill-author's tests and deployment-modes reference.

kyberforge
Skills and agents for creating, maintaining, and managing a Claude Code / Copilot CLI plugin marketplace.
Install
apm is the only supported install path (ADR-0024). Declare this package in the consuming project's apm.yml:
dependencies:
apm:
- git: git@git.dev.rkdr.net:Defame1297/holocron.git
path: plugins/kyberforge
Then:
apm install
The entry above is unpinned and tracks the remote's default branch — add ref: <tag> to pin a release. Registering the catalogue instead (apm marketplace add git@git.dev.rkdr.net:Defame1297/holocron.git --name holocron) gets you the kyberforge@holocron short name, but writes to ~/.apm/marketplaces.json at user scope; the git+path object needs nothing beyond the manifest.
Native plugin installs do not work. This package ships no per-plugin manifest and no flat content directories, so a host that installs it natively gets zero skills, agents and hooks — and Claude Code raises no error while doing it (ADR-0024).
Contents
Authoring source lives in .apm/; it is the only content source and the only thing apm install deploys (ADR-0024).
| Component | Path | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Skills | .apm/skills/ |
Slash commands available after install |
| Agents | .apm/agents/*.agent.md |
Role-based agents; one vendor-neutral .agent.md per agent (ADR-0016) |
| Hooks | .apm/hooks/ |
Event-triggered automation — Claude Code only, see below |
Hooks are Claude Code-only. apm merges .apm/hooks/*.json into the consuming project's .claude/settings.json at install. Copilot CLI has no default hooks path — agents and skills default to agents/ and skills/, but hooks defaults to nothing (docs/research/docs/github-copilot-plugins/configuration.md:47), so Copilot reads hooks only via an explicit pointer in a plugin manifest — and since ADR-0024 there is no per-plugin manifest to carry one. Copilot therefore loads no hooks from this plugin. Details, including why a pointer was the wrong fix even when a manifest existed, are in docs/hooks.md.
Skills
| Skill | Description |
|---|---|
forge |
Grill an unclassified "I want to add something" request, decide whether it's a skill, agent, plugin, or marketplace entry, then route to the matching author skill |
skill-author |
Create or improve a skill from scratch, audit findings, or inline feedback |
agent-author |
Author an agent definition file |
factory-audit |
Audit a skill directory or an agent definition — structure, provider safety, description and body quality, and provenance; produces a findings report. Auto-detects which of the two it was handed (ADR-0025) |
apm-install |
Install or upgrade the apm CLI and set up the agent runtimes it drives (Copilot CLI, Codex, Gemini, generic llm) |
apm-workflow |
Author apm.yml, scaffold an apm package/marketplace, install dependencies, and compile/pack/publish/audit apm content |
Pre-commit tooling (pc-author, pc-run) lives in the git plugin, not here.
