Five documents told authors that a prose-form dangling routing target blocks. The
gate reports it as a SUGGESTION and exits 0. Verified on fixtures: `-> name` and
`/name` are blocking ERRORs, the prose form is SUGGESTION-tier unless a second
resolving target in the same sentence corroborates it. ADR-0020 and gates.md were
right; contract.md, retrofit.md, description-quality.md, finding-criteria.md and
agent-author's contract.md were wrong — and they are what an author and an auditor
actually read. The whole 39-skill corpus was retrofitted against them.
skill-audit was also self-contradictory: it imports validate.sh's SUGGESTIONs into
the Structure dimension verbatim while its own rubric grades the same target a FAIL,
so one target got reported twice at two tiers. The script owns the grade; the rubric
now says so.
The YAML-fold trap that broke gitea-labels-milestones (#100) was warned about only
in retrofit.md, reachable only from the improve flow when a budget is exceeded. It
is now in both contract.md files, which SKILL.md mandates on the create flow too.
agent-audit loaded both rubrics unconditionally on every run — 3,323 words for a
clean audit against skill-audit's 1,636. dac9cad fixed exactly this in skill-audit
and edited agent-audit in the same commit without applying it. Same treatment: the
criteria move to a new finding-criteria.md and load per dimension. Clean run now
2,083 words, a 37% cut.
Routing: apm-workflow's description shed dependency installation while still owning
the flow, and apm-install's boundary did not exclude it, so "install my apm
dependencies" matched the CLI-binary skill with no route back. Fixed on both sides.
forge regains two of the three phrasings the retrofit deleted.
forge Step 1 called grill-with-docs unconditionally — a skill in plugins/bin, which
kyberforge does not declare as a dependency. It resolves here only because the
walk-up sweeps sibling plugins; a standalone install dead-ends. Step 1 now names
the cross-plugin dependency and gives an inline fallback. Declaring it properly in
apm.yml remains the better fix.
Also: both audit SKILL.md files now grade exit 2 as "did not run, dimension
unverified" rather than as findings; skill-audit's README row described content that
moved, which its own finding-criteria.md grades a FAIL; and body-discipline.md's
`git show <sha>:plugins/...` command is fenced, since an installed plugin cache has
no repo and file-structure.md makes a bare repo path a FAIL.

Step 1 — Dispatch
| Condition | Flow | Reference |
|---|---|---|
Author or edit apm.yml, or scaffold a new package (apm plugin init) |
configure | references/configure.md |
Resolve or fetch the dependencies apm.yml declares (apm install, apm install [PACKAGE_REF]) |
install | references/install.md |
Build a marketplace, register a package into it (local: hand-edit apm.yml; remote: apm marketplace package add), or register someone else's as a consumer (apm marketplace init/check/package add/add) |
marketplace | references/marketplace.md |
Generate per-target output, bundle, or publish (apm compile, apm pack, apm publish) |
compile | references/compile.md |
Validate integrity/policy or wire a CI gate (apm audit, apm audit --ci) |
audit | references/audit.md |
Read the reference file matching the resolved flow — it carries that flow's own traps, and names a sibling file wherever one flow genuinely depends on another's detail.
Step 2 — Execute
Follow the matched reference file's instructions. Report back which apm command(s) were run (or drafted, if the user asked for a plan rather than execution) and their outcome.
