Defame1297 38f1ba4e03 fix(kyberforge): bridge apm content to Claude Code's flat plugin discovery
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.

# Branch operations
Call signatures below were verified live against the deployed `gitea-mcp` server via `ToolSearch`
at authoring time, not copied from research docs — this is deliberate: research docs are generated
from source code at a point in time and can drift from the server actually deployed. Re-verify
against the live schema if these tools appear to behave differently than documented here.
## `list_branches`
**Parameters:**
- `owner` (string, required)
- `repo` (string, required)
- `page` (number, optional, default: `1`)
- `per_page` (number, optional, default: `30`)
**Call:**
```
list_branches owner: <owner> repo: <repo>
```
**Response:** one object per branch: `name`, `protected` (bool), `commit_sha` (present when the
underlying commit data is available).
Paginate if you need the full list (see Gotchas in SKILL.md) — iterate `page` until the returned
count is less than `per_page`.
## `create_branch`
**Parameters:**
- `owner` (string, required)
- `repo` (string, required)
- `branch` (string, required) — new branch name
- `old_branch` (string, optional) — source branch; if omitted, defaults to the repo's default
branch server-side (not necessarily your current local checkout)
**Call:**
```
create_branch owner: <owner> repo: <repo> branch: <new-name> old_branch: <source-branch>
```
Default dispatch: if the user gives a base ("branch off of X", "from X"), pass it as `old_branch`.
If they don't specify a base and you're mid-task on a local branch, pass your current branch
(`git branch --show-current`) as `old_branch` so the new branch forks from where you're actually
working, rather than silently falling back to the repo default. If neither applies (e.g. a fresh
top-level request with no working branch context), omit `old_branch` and let it default server-side.
A branch name collision returns `409 Conflict`.
## `delete_branch`
**Parameters:**
- `owner` (string, required)
- `repo` (string, required)
- `branch` (string, required)
**Call:**
```
delete_branch owner: <owner> repo: <repo> branch: <name>
```
Before calling this, see the hard-refusal Gotcha in SKILL.md. If the target branch's name isn't
obviously a scratch/feature branch, call `list_branches` first and check `protected` on the
matching entry — name-matching `main`/`master` alone isn't authoritative, since a repo can protect
a differently-named default branch. Confirm explicitly with the user before deleting anything
protected, every time, regardless of how the request is phrased.
## Token scope
All three — `list_branches`, `create_branch`, `delete_branch` — require `write:repository`. Gitea
gates reads behind write scope for repo-scoped operations, so `list_branches` needs the same scope
as the write operations, not `write:issue` alone. An earlier version of this doc claimed
`write:issue` alone was sufficient for `list_branches`, based on empirical testing under a token
that held both `write:issue` and `write:repository` simultaneously — that test didn't isolate the
variable, so it couldn't actually establish `write:issue` alone as sufficient.
