Defame1297 8451169d2b feat(gates): enforce metadata.version bumps on changed skills at pre-push
check-skill-version-bump fails a push when a skill directory changed
against its merge-base with main (tests/ excluded) without a strictly
higher metadata.version than main. New, renamed and deleted skills are
exempt; every plugin is covered. Recorded as a dated section in
ADR-0022 and documented in gates.md.

Patch-bumps the 17 skills that changed on this branch without a bump,
so the branch passes its own gate. Simplification audit finding 33.

apm-install Use when installing, pinning, or upgrading the apm (Agent Package Manager) CLI itself, or installing and managing an agent runtime apm drives. Not authoring, publishing, auditing, or dependency installation for an apm package -> `apm-workflow`.

Gotchas

  • apm never executes an agent itself — it only installs and manages the runtimes that do. Installing apm alone leaves the user with a package manager and no working agent CLI, so Step 2 is required whenever the user actually wants one; skip it only when they explicitly want the package manager alone.
  • apm runtime setup copilot needs Node.js v22+ and npm v10+ already on PATH; apm will not install them for you.

Step 1 — Install the apm CLI

If apm --version already answers and the user is not pinning or upgrading, skip to Step 2.

Default:

curl -sSL https://aka.ms/apm-unix | sh

Escape hatches — combine as needed:

  • Pin a version — append @vX.Y.Z to the piped script's arguments: curl -sSL https://aka.ms/apm-unix | sh -s -- @v1.2.3.
  • Custom install directory — set APM_INSTALL_DIR on the piped script's command: curl -sSL https://aka.ms/apm-unix | APM_INSTALL_DIR=$HOME/.local/bin sh.
  • Air-gapped mirror / GitHub Enterprise — an air-gapped host cannot reach aka.ms at all, so get install.sh onto the box and run it from disk instead of piping. Point it at the mirror with APM_RELEASE_BASE_URL and pin VERSION: APM_RELEASE_BASE_URL=https://mirror.corp/apm VERSION=v1.2.3 sh install.sh; add APM_RELEASE_METADATA_URL instead if you leave VERSION unset. GITHUB_URL is the GitHub Enterprise host, not a release mirror. All four are ordinary environment variables that also work through the pipe — running from disk is a network constraint, not a script one.
  • pip — pip install apm-cli requires Python 3.10+. Not on an externally-managed (PEP 668) Python such as Debian or Ubuntu, where it hard-fails with error: externally-managed-environment; use pipx below. The quick-install script has no Python prerequisite, so prefer it unless the environment is pip-first.
  • pipx — pipx install apm-cli on those PEP 668 environments. Same PyPI package, but pipx builds an isolated venv and exposes apm on PATH.
  • Manual — download the platform archive from the GitHub releases page, extract, and place the binary on PATH.

Verify with apm --version.

Step 2 — Install or manage an agent runtime

Default:

apm runtime setup copilot

Other targets: apm runtime setup codex, apm runtime setup gemini, apm runtime setup llm.

  • apm runtime list — show installed runtimes.
  • apm runtime status — show which runtime apm run will pick by default.
  • apm runtime remove <name> -y — uninstall without an interactive prompt.
