AGENTS.md told an offline agent to push with SKIP=apm-marketplace-check and asserted that hook was "the only one whose failure mode is 'no network'". Running all 12 pre-push hooks under a network namespace shows two fail, for one shared cause: apm-pack-check-clean resolves the same remote entry. An exact pin does not remove the ls-remote, so both hooks are named now. AGENTS.md also said everything in a plugin root except .apm/ is generated. Plugin roots carry hand-authored README.md, docs/, bin/, sources.md and .mcp.json, so an agent would hunt for an .apm/ source that does not exist or refuse the edit. The rule is positional: immunity belongs to the plugin root, and anything inside a mirrored directory is still rm -rf'd. ADR-0017 said apm strips a hooks field. The real loop is (agents, skills, commands, instructions) -- hooks absent, instructions never mentioned -- and it can never fire, because synthesize_plugin_json_from_apm_yml only emits the eight identity fields. The decision stands; the mechanism was overstated. Its mcpServers amendment is rewritten for the pointer payload and now records the real reason: inlining bypassed apm's credential sanitizer. ADR-0015's owner.email and version-pin passages are corrected against the apm source, and ADR-0016 gains the disallowedTools amendment. agent-audit's allowlist is data, so it gains disallowedTools too -- the ADR and the validator that enforces it had come apart. architecture.md described a root CLAUDE.md that imports two files (it imports one, plus an RTK block) and pointed at an ADR index that does not exist. Seven skill READMEs listed tests/ files the mirror strips, promising installed users files their install lacks; those rows are marked source-only, with the depth-4 template tests explicitly called out as surviving. And plugins/kyberforge/hooks/README.md, deleted during the conversion and preserved nowhere, is restored to a path the mirror does not own -- verified by running a sync against a scratch copy.

# agent-audit
|
|
|
|
Audits an agent definition for correctness and quality — a single vendor-neutral file at
|
|
plugin/APM scope, or a Claude Code and Copilot file pair at project/user scope.
|
|
|
|
## What it does
|
|
|
|
At **plugin/APM scope**, accepts the single `.apm/agents/<name>.agent.md` file — there is no
|
|
counterpart. Structural checks via `validate.sh` hard-`FAIL` any frontmatter field outside the
|
|
vendor-neutral allowlist (`name`, `description`, `model`, `source_keys` — the last for
|
|
provenance tracking, checked separately by `validate-provenance.sh` against `sources.md`; see
|
|
ADR-0016), since `apm compile`
|
|
copies frontmatter verbatim to both harnesses and an unsafe field can't be silently dropped for
|
|
just one of them.
|
|
|
|
At **project/user scope**, 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, no
|
|
Copilot-only fields in the CC file), provenance chain validation via `validate-provenance.sh`
|
|
(checks `source_keys` against `sources.md` at the plugin root — plugin/APM scope only), then
|
|
qualitative checks on description phrasing and system prompt quality. Step 1 also runs a
|
|
Vale-based prose sub-check via `vale-wrap.sh` against both files of the pair, using the
|
|
`Kyberforge` style (both files) and `KyberforgeCopilot` style (Copilot file only) — every alert
|
|
is a `FAIL`, cited by rule ID — falling back to Step 2 judgment when the `vale` binary is
|
|
unavailable or reports `0 files` scanned. 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.

## Files
|
|
|
|
| File | Purpose |
|
|
|------|---------|
|
|
| `SKILL.md` | Skill instructions for agents |
|
|
| `assets/vale/.vale.ini` | Vale config: scopes `Kyberforge` to `**/agents/*.md`, `Kyberforge`+`KyberforgeCopilot` to `**/*.agent.md` |
|
|
| `assets/vale/styles/Kyberforge/DescriptionOpener.yml` | Flags descriptions opening with "This skill/agent" instead of an imperative "Use when..." |
|
|
| `assets/vale/styles/Kyberforge/PaddingPhrase.yml` | Flags generic "see references/ for info" pointers instead of specific file references |
|
|
| `assets/vale/styles/Kyberforge/SentenceOpenerThereIs.yml` | Flags sentences opening with "There is/are" instead of naming the subject directly |
|
|
| `assets/vale/styles/Kyberforge/VagueWording.yml` | Flags vague capability wording ("helps with", "utilize", "assists with", "used for") in descriptions |
|
|
| `assets/vale/styles/KyberforgeCopilot/ProactivePhrase.yml` | Flags CC-specific "Use proactively" phrasing with no effect in Copilot descriptions |
|
|
| `references/README.md` | Directory documentation for references/ |
|
|
| `references/description-quality.md` | Qualitative guide for borderline description findings |
|
|
| `references/field-inventory.md` | Authoritative field lists read as data by `validate.sh`: valid CC and Copilot agent fields, and the vendor-neutral plugin/APM-scope allowlist |
|
|
| `references/sources.md` | Research provenance for skill content |
|
|
| `scripts/README.md` | Directory documentation for scripts/ |
|
|
| `scripts/validate.sh` | Structural validation script for agent file pairs |
|
|
| `scripts/validate-provenance.sh` | Provenance chain validation script for agent pairs against `sources.md` (plugin root) |
|
|
| `scripts/vale-wrap.sh` | Drop-in `vale` wrapper that works around a frontmatter-description NLP scope limitation |
|
|
| `tests/README.md` | (source-only) Bats test dependency and run instructions |
|
|
| `tests/validate.bats` | (source-only) Bats tests for validate.sh |
|
|
| `tests/validate-provenance.bats` | (source-only) Bats tests for validate-provenance.sh |
|
|
|
|
Rows marked **(source-only)** exist in the authoring source (`.apm/skills/agent-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.
