`claude plugin validate --strict` auto-discovers every .md under a plugin's agents/ directory as an agent requiring frontmatter, so the provenance file there always needs fake agent frontmatter to pass validation. Confirmed empirically that an explicit `agents` manifest array can't suppress this discovery. Move the file to <plugin-root>/ sources.md instead, and update agent-author/agent-audit accordingly. Adds ADR-0010, partially superseding ADR-0005's `agents/sources.md` convention. Fixes #63. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
scripts/
Executable code bundled with this skill. Agents run scripts in this directory to perform repeatable operations rather than reinventing the logic each run.
When to add a script
Add a script when agents independently reinvent the same logic across runs — building the same parser, chart, or validation routine from scratch each time. Bundle it here once, tested and reliable.
Script requirements (agentskills.io)
Scripts must be designed for non-interactive, agentic execution:
- No interactive prompts — agents run in non-interactive shells. Accept all input via flags, env vars, or stdin. A script that blocks on TTY input hangs indefinitely.
- Expose
--help— this is how agents learn your script's interface. Keep the output concise; it enters the agent's context window. - Structured output — write data (JSON, CSV, TSV) to stdout. Write progress, warnings, and diagnostics to stderr.
- Idempotent — prefer "create if not exists" over "create and fail on duplicate". Agents may retry on failure.
- Meaningful exit codes —
0for success, non-zero for failure. Use distinct codes for different failure types; document them in--help. - Dry-run support — add
--dry-runfor destructive operations.
Self-contained scripts
Bundle dependencies inline so the agent can run the script with a single command.
Python (PEP 723 + uv):
# /// script
# dependencies = ["requests>=2.31,<3"]
# requires-python = ">=3.11"
# ///
import requests
uv run scripts/my-script.py
