The flattener's last-resort branch rewrote ASCII ' to U+2019, justified as the one combination no YAML scalar can carry verbatim. That claim was false: a |- literal block with a single indented content line carries ', ", \ and ": " verbatim and keeps text.frontmatter.description matching — as the wrapper's own docstring already said of literal blocks. The rewrite fired on 12 of 54 in-scope files, silently disabling every rule whose token contains an apostrophe. Case 20 pinned only that the scope stayed alive, so it passed either way. The emission site now splits the emitted scalar on its first newline so a carried-over trailing comment stays on the "description: |-" header line rather than becoming part of the value, and pads by span_lines - 1 - newlines. The pad stays non-negative because the branch is only reachable when the original span is at least two lines. Verified across all 73 in-scope files: no line-count changes, and exactly the 12 expected files take the new branch. One reported position moves: an alert on a description that is itself flagged shifts from the key line to the block's content line, both inside the original span. YAML cannot put a literal block's content on the key's own line, so this is unavoidable; no line at or after the end of any description span moves. Also: --output no longer absolutises the built-in style names line, JSON and CLI, which a same-named file or directory in cwd turned into a template path (exit 2, E100 Runtime error). And case 19's empty-baseline guard no longer lets five dependent comparisons print vacuous passes — while fixing it the guard turned out to be unreachable, since under pipefail an alert-free report aborted the script at the assignment.

agent-audit
Audits a Claude Code and Copilot agent definition file pair for correctness and quality.
What it does
Accepts either file in a CC .md / Copilot .agent.md pair, derives the counterpart automatically, and validates both. Runs structural checks via validate.sh (required fields, kebab-case name, no placeholders, no CC-only fields in the Copilot file, silently-ignored fields at plugin scope), provenance chain validation via validate-provenance.sh (checks source_keys against sources.md at the plugin root), then qualitative checks on description phrasing and system prompt quality. Produces a compact findings report in the same format as skill-audit.
Usage
/agent-audit
Pass the path to either agent file as the argument.
