Defame1297 3324a73225 feat(lint): expand Vale audit prefilter into a broader plugin-content harness
Deferred item from PR #85 review. Per ADR-0013: cherry-picks two low-noise
rules from trialing write-good/alex against the real corpus (VagueQualifier,
SentenceOpenerThereIs) into styles/Kyberforge rather than adopting either
package wholesale (both are tuned for blog prose and were noisy on this
repo's terse, imperative instruction files - see the ADR's rejected-rule
list). Adds a new skill-size-check pre-commit hook enforcing agentskills.io's
500-line/5,000-token SKILL.md ceiling, currently unenforced. Fixes the 28
resulting violations across 20 existing SKILL.md/agent files so the
enforcing pre-commit hook lands clean.

governance.md/CONTROLS.md were evaluated and excluded as rule sources -
they're org/CI-infrastructure controls, not prose patterns Vale can express.

agent-author

Creates and improves agent definition files for Claude Code and GitHub Copilot CLI.

What it does

Scaffolds and fills in agent definition files (.md for Claude Code, .agent.md for Copilot CLI) at plugin, project, or user scope. Always generates both provider files in one pass. Also applies improvement signals — grill output, inline feedback, session context — to existing agent files. Bumps the plugin version in both manifests after every change (minor for new agents, patch for improvements).

Before you start

Have ready: the agent's name (kebab-case), the root directory (plugin root, project root, or ~), a one-sentence purpose, and the triggering condition (when should the runtime delegate to this agent?).

Usage

/agent-author

Manual scaffold (human workflow):

bash scripts/new-agent.sh <agent-name> <root>

# Examples:
bash scripts/new-agent.sh code-reviewer plugins/kyberforge/
bash scripts/new-agent.sh deploy-assistant .
bash scripts/new-agent.sh security-reviewer ~
