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

Release and tag conventions
Practitioner conventions that inform how to use the mechanics in call-signatures.md — not
additional tool schemas.
Release wraps a tag, not the reverse
A release is a title, body (notes), and draft/prerelease flags layered on top of an existing or
newly-created tag. The tag is the git-level object (a name pointing at a commit); the release is a
Gitea-level metadata wrapper around it. This is why delete_release and delete_tag are separate
calls with separate identifiers (numeric id vs. tag name) — removing the wrapper never implies
removing the underlying pointer, and vice versa.
Semver tag naming
Per the tea CLI (the reference Gitea client), tag names conventionally follow semver with a v
prefix: v1.2.0, v2.0.0-beta.1. This is a convention observed by tooling and humans, not a
Gitea-enforced constraint — the API accepts any string as tag_name. Don't validate or rewrite a
caller-supplied tag name against semver; just pass it through.
Draft and prerelease are explicit flags
is_draft and is_pre_release are booleans the caller sets directly on create_release — Gitea
does not infer either from the tag name, even though the -beta/-rc suffix convention above is
commonly used to signal a prerelease to humans. When a user asks to "cut a beta" or "publish a
release candidate," set is_pre_release: true explicitly in the same call rather than relying on
the tag string to carry that meaning.
Note the input/output naming mismatch: the input param is is_draft, but the release object
returned by the API uses draft (and prerelease) as the field names. draft is never a valid
input key — passing draft: true to create_release is silently ignored rather than erroring.
Release notes sourcing
Practitioner convention (per tea) is to source release notes (body) from a changelog file
rather than typing them inline for each release — useful context when a caller asks to "generate"
or "use the changelog for" release notes rather than write them from scratch.
