Six defects, each one a place where two files that an author reads in the same sitting told them different things — or where the trim dropped a rule and nothing noticed because no gate covers prose. **"Use proactively" contradicted itself across the pair.** All three agent templates said to add it where the runtime should delegate unprompted, while `agent-audit`'s `KyberforgeCopilot.ProactivePhrase` rule grades it a hard FAIL in any `*.agent.md` — which is the Copilot half of every project/user pair *and* the vendor-neutral plugin-scope file, since that compiles to a real Copilot agent downstream. Following the template produced a file the repo's own gate rejects. The phrase is now permitted in exactly one place, the Claude Code `.md`, and `references/contract.md` carries the per-file table plus the consequence authors ask about next: a pair whose CC half has it and whose Copilot half does not is correct, because `agent-audit` checks that both halves describe the same job, not that they match word for word. **The output-schema rule contradicted itself inside one file.** `contract.md` said any content only one branch reaches moves to `references/`, and then offered an "Output format template" body pattern with no qualification. Stated once now, so it is not re-litigated: an output schema stays in the body only when every flow produces it and it is roughly 50 words or less. No third option. **Gotchas tiers disagreed with the script.** `validate.sh` emits the entry count through `suggest()` and exits 0, while `skill-author` and `skill-audit` both called more than five entries a FAIL. Whether a given gotcha earns its place is judgment, so the prose moves to the script's tier rather than the reverse. The paraphrase rule stays a FAIL and is explicitly marked as the auditor's call — no script detects it. **The dispatch exemplar was cited at the wrong number.** `apm-workflow`'s body is 421 words; 554 is its whole-file count. Both `contract.md` and `body-discipline.md` cited 554 while describing a body budget, so an author calibrating against the exemplar overshot by ~30% — the exact whole-file/body-only conflation those two sections exist to warn against, reproduced inside the warning. **"Error handling" came back as a required body element.** It was one of four and is the one that gets dropped, and dropping it is not neutral: an agent handed malformed input with no instruction invents a recovery, and a subagent's invented recovery is invisible to its caller until the output is wrong. Restored in `agent-audit`'s rubric as a SUGGESTION, in `agent-author`'s contract and both scope checklists as a required element, and as an `## Errors` section in all three templates. **`skill-author` Step 4 gains the one check the audit misses.** An empty body reports `PASS SKILL.md body word count 0` — a word gate cannot tell "concise" from "absent". Step 4 now hand-checks for a non-empty section, and its commit verification is conditioned on actually being inside a git worktree, which a skill under `~/.claude/skills/` is not. Also here: absolute repo paths removed from `skill-author`'s SKILL.md and contract.md in favour of naming the skill (`zoom-out`'s description is quoted inline instead of pointed at), the boundary-target universe documented to match the resolver, a two-hops-from-SKILL.md limit on reference chains, and `new-agent.sh`'s next-steps output naming the description budget and the deliberate absence of an agent body gate.

GitHub Copilot CLI:
copilot plugin marketplace add <owner>/<repo>
copilot plugin install kyberforge
Local (development):

# GitHub Copilot CLI
copilot plugin install ./plugins/kyberforge
Contents
Authoring source lives in .apm/. The skills/, agents/, and hooks/hooks.json paths below are the generated mirror that plugin hosts actually scan — produced by scripts/sync-plugin-content.sh, never hand-edited (ADR-0017).
| Component | Path | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Skills | .apm/skills/ → skills/ |
Slash commands available after install |
| Agents | .apm/agents/*.agent.md → agents/ |
Role-based agents; one vendor-neutral .agent.md per agent, copied verbatim to both targets (ADR-0016) |
| Hooks | .apm/hooks/ → hooks/hooks.json |
Event-triggered automation — read by Claude Code only, see below |
| MCP servers | .mcp.json |
Model Context Protocol server definitions (hand-authored at the plugin root) |
Hooks are Claude Code-only in practice. Claude Code convention-scans hooks/hooks.json at the plugin root, so that file is live. 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 "hooks": "hooks.json" pointer in plugin.json (docs/research/docs/github-copilot-plugins/examples.md:49). apm's manifest compiler strips pointer fields from every manifest it generates, so neither .claude-plugin/plugin.json nor .github/plugin/plugin.json carries one, and re-injecting it is the option ADR-0017 explicitly rejected. Copilot therefore loads no hooks from this plugin — and did not load them from the old root-level hooks.json either. The Copilot half of this row is aspirational, not current behaviour.
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 |
skill-audit |
Audit a skill directory against the agentskills.io spec and produce a findings report |
agent-author |
Author an agent definition file |
agent-audit |
Audit an agent definition across structure, provider safety, description and body quality, and provenance; produces a findings report |
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.
