Matt Pocock f3554acafe chore: sync the plugin version from package.json on release
`npm run version` now runs `changeset version` and then
`scripts/sync-plugin-version.mjs`, which copies the new version into
`.claude-plugin/plugin.json`. The release workflow calls `npm run version`
instead of `npx changeset version`, so the version PR carries both files.

Also closes the drift this replaces: `plugin.json` was manually bumped to
1.2.1 while `package.json` stayed at 1.2.0. `package.json` moves up to
1.2.1 so the plugin version never goes backwards.

`npm run check-plugin-version` reports drift without writing.

Skills are organized into bucket folders under skills/:

  • engineering/ — daily code work
  • productivity/ — daily non-code workflow tools
  • misc/ — kept around but rarely used, not promoted
  • in-progress/ — beta: public on purpose, feedback wanted, not shipped in the plugin
  • deprecated/ — no longer used

Every skill in engineering/ or productivity/ (the promoted buckets) must have a reference in the top-level README.md and an entry in .claude-plugin/plugin.json's skills array (the Claude Code plugin ships exactly the promoted set). Skills in misc/, in-progress/, and deprecated/ must not appear in either.

Install commands are copied verbatim from .agents/install-block.md. .claude-plugin/marketplace.json makes the repo its own single-plugin marketplace — a fallback the install block explains, not the documented route. Run claude plugin validate . --strict after touching either manifest. Why a Claude plugin but not (yet) a Codex one lives in .agents/adr/0002-ship-as-a-claude-code-plugin.md.

Each skill entry in the top-level README.md must link the skill name to its SKILL.md.

Each bucket folder has a README.md that lists every skill in the bucket with a one-line description, with the skill name linked to its SKILL.md. The promoted buckets' README.mds and the top-level README.md group entries into User-invoked and Model-invoked; non-promoted bucket README.mds (misc/, in-progress/) use a flat list.

Skills in engineering/ and productivity/ also have a human-facing docs page at docs/<bucket>/<skill-name>.md (the docs tree mirrors those two bucket folders under skills/). The published URL is https://aihero.dev/skills-<skill-name> regardless of bucket — the docs path is repo organisation only. When you add, rename, or change the behaviour of a skill in engineering/ or productivity/, create or re-sync its docs page following .agents/writing-docs.md. A finished page carries four sections — What it does, When to reach for it, Common questions, It's working if — and writing-docs.md holds the template, the section order, and where to hunt for the questions. Skills in the non-promoted buckets (misc/, in-progress/, deprecated/) get no docs page.

Every SKILL.md is either user-invoked (disable-model-invocation: true plus policy.allow_implicit_invocation: false in agents/openai.yaml, reachable only by the human) or model-invoked (model- or user-reachable). See .agents/invocation.md.

ask-matt is the router that maps every user-reachable skill and how they relate. The same trigger that re-syncs a docs page applies to it: whenever you add, rename, remove, or change how a user-reachable skill fits the flows, re-read ask-matt's SKILL.md and update it so the map stays accurate — a new skill it never mentions, or a stale one it still routes to, is a router that lies.

To (re)link every skill into the local harness skill directories (~/.claude/skills, ~/.agents/skills), run scripts/link-skills.sh. Each entry is a symlink into this repo, so a git pull keeps installed skills current; re-run the script after adding, removing, or renaming a skill.
