Defame1297 874bf06b18 chore(apm): regenerate compiled manifests and content mirrors
Output of apm pack, sync-plugin-content.sh --all and
sync-marketplace-mirror.sh against this round's source changes. No file here
is hand-edited.

Carries the version bumps and marketplace owner.email into the compiled
manifests, the disallowedTools frontmatter and doc corrections into the flat
mirrors, and changes plugins/bin/.github/plugin/plugin.json's mcpServers from
the inlined server object to the ".mcp.json" pointer. That last file also
returns to 0644: the previous re-injection wrote it through mktemp and carried
0600 across, which no gate could see because the mode check did not cover
.github/plugin/ and git tracks only the exec bit.

.agents/plugins/marketplace.json is unchanged and that is correct -- apm's
codex profile carries neither version nor owner keys, so nothing in this round
reaches it.

skill-audit

Audit a skill directory against the agentskills.io specification. Runs structural validation then a qualitative review across description quality, body discipline, patterns, formatting, file structure, scripts, and internal consistency, plus a provenance chain check.

What it does

  1. Runs scripts/validate.sh and scripts/validate-provenance.sh for structural and provenance checks, plus scripts/vale-wrap.sh — a Vale prefilter that deterministically flags known-bad description openers, vague wording, padding phrases, and "There is/are" sentence openers
  2. Reads all files in the skill directory
  3. Applies qualitative checks across seven dimensions
  4. Outputs a compact findings report — findings only, grouped by dimension, each with Why and Fix — and a result block with handoff to /skill-improve

Usage

/skill-audit

Provide the path to the skill directory to audit when invoking.

Files

File Purpose
SKILL.md Skill instructions for agents
scripts/validate.sh Structural validator — checks name format, name matches directory, description length, line count, placeholder detection, script executable bit, and interactive-prompt detection
scripts/validate-provenance.sh Provenance validator — checks sources.md completeness, source_keys/slug consistency, Contributing files existence, bidirectional linkage, Research doc: fields, and upstream research doc alignment
scripts/vale-wrap.sh Vale prefilter wrapper — runs the bundled Kyberforge Vale styles against SKILL.md and reports alerts as deterministic FAILs ahead of Step 3's qualitative review
assets/vale/.vale.ini Vale configuration — points Vale at the bundled Kyberforge style path, self-located relative to vale-wrap.sh
assets/vale/styles/Kyberforge/DescriptionOpener.yml Vale rule — flags literal "This skill..."/"This agent..." description openers
assets/vale/styles/Kyberforge/PaddingPhrase.yml Vale rule — flags generic "see references/" padding phrasing in conditional references
assets/vale/styles/Kyberforge/SentenceOpenerThereIs.yml Vale rule — flags body sentences starting with "There is"/"There are"
assets/vale/styles/Kyberforge/VagueWording.yml Vale rule — flags known filler wording (e.g. "helps with", "utilize")
references/description-quality.md Spec-grounded rubric for description auditing — loaded when a finding is borderline
references/body-discipline.md Spec-grounded rubric for body discipline auditing — loaded when padding vs necessity is unclear
references/sources.md Provenance record — agentskills.io sources that informed this skill and which files each contributed to
tests/validate.bats (source-only) Bats test suite for validate.sh
tests/validate-provenance.bats (source-only) Bats test suite for validate-provenance.sh
tests/README.md (source-only) Setup instructions for bats-support and bats-assert test dependencies

Rows marked (source-only) exist in the authoring source (.apm/skills/skill-audit/) but are not present in an installed plugin: scripts/sync-plugin-content.sh strips <category>/<name>/tests when it generates the flat mirror, because these are dev-time fixtures no plugin host needs to discover (ADR-0017). Run them from a repo checkout, not from an install.
