Four claims in shipped agent-facing docs did not match verified behaviour.
These are read as ground truth by agents in other repos, so each was
reproduced against vale 3.15.2 before rewriting:
- CONTEXT.md and `vale-config/SKILL.md` said both `>` and `|` block scalars
break the description scope. `|` does not — it lints normally and fires every
alert, while `>` yields zero. An agent following the old text would rewrite a
working `|` description into a plain multi-line scalar, which genuinely does
break, inverting the intended remediation. Both now name the forms that do
break and state that `|` does not.
- CONTEXT.md and ADR-0013 described the size hook as failing only above 500
lines, omitting the 2900-word gate it also enforces. Both now describe the
pair and state that `validate.sh` checks the same two.
- ADR-0014 recorded an accepted residual — a wholesale `assets/` deletion going
unflagged — that commit 14c2c91 closed. Left as the point-in-time record and
amended with an update describing the union-with-tag-manifest mechanism,
following the amendment precedent in ADR-0005.
- `vale-config/SKILL.md` asserted a fresh `.vale.ini` fails until `vale sync`
runs, contradicting its own note that built-in styles need no download. The
claim is now scoped to package styles; this repo's two configs declare no
packages and lint clean with zero syncs.
Also repoints AGENTS.md at the seven `gitea:*` skills — the `bin:gitea` route
it named no longer exists.

# Working in this repo
|
|
|
|
This repo is the global AI development configuration repository — the authoritative source for agent definitions, skills, workflows, and prompts across all projects. Built as a homelab tool intended to scale to professional environments.
|
|
|
|
## Structure
|
|
|
|
- `plugins/` — installable plugin units; each is self-contained (skills, agents, hooks, MCP servers, bundled assets); install separately via `claude plugin install <name>@holocron`
|
|
- `providers/claude-code/` — Claude Code adapter (deployed to `~/.claude/` via `install.sh`)
|
|
|
|
## Prefer plugin skills over raw shell
|
|
|
|
This repo dogfoods its own plugins. Before shelling out to git, gitea, or lint tooling directly, check whether an installed skill already owns the operation — it usually does:
|
|
|
|
- Commits, branches, history, worktrees, remotes → `git:git-commits`, `git:git-branches`, `git:git-history`, `git:git-worktrees`, `git:git-remotes`
|
|
- Pre-commit hook install/config/troubleshooting → `git:pc-run` / `git:pc-author`
|
|
- Issues, PRs, labels, milestones → `gitea:gitea-issues`, `gitea:gitea-prs`, `gitea:gitea-labels-milestones`; also `gitea:gitea-branches`, `gitea:gitea-files`, `gitea:gitea-releases`, or `gitea:gitea-workflow` when the domain is ambiguous
|
|
- Vale prose linting → `lint:vale-config` / `lint:vale-run`
|
|
- This repo's own AGENTS.md → `core:agentsmd-author` / `core:agentsmd-audit`
|
|
|
|
Fall back to raw shell only when no skill covers it.
|
|
|
|
## Setup and testing
|
|
|
|
- Install git hooks via `git:pc-run`, wiring all three stages — this repo's `.pre-commit-config.yaml` has no `default_install_hook_types`, so a plain install silently skips `commit-msg` (Conventional Commits) and `pre-push` (tests, manifest check).
|
|
- Install the `vale` binary — required by the `vale-audit-prefilter-skill`/`-agent` pre-commit hooks, which run on every commit touching a `SKILL.md` or agent `.md` file. Without it the hooks fail with a bare "command not found" and no install pointer. `brew install vale` (macOS), `snap install vale` (Linux), `choco install vale` (Windows), or see https://vale.sh/docs/vale-cli/installation/. No `vale sync` needed — the `Kyberforge` styles are committed under `plugins/kyberforge/skills/{skill-audit,agent-audit}/assets/vale/styles/`, not downloaded packages (see ADR-0014).
|
|
- Run `bash tests/run-tests.sh` before considering any change done — it runs every `test-*.sh` script in the repo plus the bats suite (`--bats-only` for just bats). First run auto-initializes the bats submodules; no manual `git submodule update` needed.
|
|
- Pushing re-runs the full suite plus `scripts/check-manifests.sh` via the pre-push hook — same commands, so run them locally first.
|
|
- Author commits with `git:git-commits` — it validates Conventional Commits (enforced at `commit-msg`) for you.
|

## Key documents
|
|
|
|
Read CONTEXT.md at the start of every session in this repo.
|
|
|
|
Read these on demand:
|
|
|
|
- `docs/spec/architecture.md` — current directory structure, install pipeline, provider model
|
|
- `docs/adr/` — architectural decisions; read before answering design questions or proposing structural changes
|
|
- `docs/ai-constitution.md` — full governance evidence base; read when a governance decision needs justification
|
|
- `docs/research/ai-coding-factory/ai-coding-factory-principles.md` — factory design rationale; read when implementing, auditing, or reviewing skills or factory structure
|
|
- `docs/notes/factory-integration-decisions.md` — decisions from the factory integration grill; read when making skill authoring or factory design decisions
|
|
- Governance rules are always in effect — `core/instructions/governance.md` (agent rules); `docs/research/governance_principles/CONTROLS.md`
