fix: avoid inline-shell false trigger in TS patterns - #110
• Move the generated plugin to the repository root for direct Hermes installation.
• Retire Cursor dual-load files and upstream-drift tracking; adapt build, validation, publishing,
and tests.
• Reword TypeScript guidance to avoid an inline-shell false trigger.

High-Level Assessment
The following are alternative approaches to this PR:
1. Keep an isolated generated package directory
➕ Preserves a clear boundary for reproducibility checks and atomic builds.
➕ Keeps development tooling out of package-wide scans and artifacts.
➖ Requires a subdirectory install or a separate root-level distribution tree.
2. Generate into staging and publish an explicit package allowlist
➕ Retains root-level installation while keeping generated files separate during the build.
➕ Allows CI to hash and upload only deliverable files.
➖ Requires an additional staging or synchronization step.
Recommendation: The root-level package serves the direct-install goal, but an explicit package allowlist or staging boundary is preferable to treating the entire repository as generated output. In particular, verify the converter emits plugin.yaml, the reproducibility gate compares package files rather than all tracked files, and release packaging creates its comparison directory before relying on those gates.

1. Committed build record wasn't made by this converter 🔴 High🐞 Bug≡ Correctness
Description
The committed .build-provenance.txt has no issue #107 entry, which convert.py appends when the
TS-pattern rewrite applies. It also still says agents_files: 2 and that
.cursor-plugin/plugin.json is preserved, while the converter now writes agents_files: 0 and
drops both. The record therefore doesn't describe how the shipped tree was built, and the ticket's
requirement to record the adaptation in build provenance is not met.
The provenance file lists its fixes without any #107 entry and still reports 2 agent files and a
preserved .cursor-plugin. The converter now hardcodes agents_files: 0, no longer creates
.cursor-plugin, and appends a #107 fix line whenever the rewrite applies.
The issue below was found during a code review. Follow the provided context and guidance below and implement a solution
## Issue description
The committed provenance doesn't match what the current converter emits: the #107 entry is missing and the agents/.cursor-plugin lines are stale.
## Fix Focus Areas

## Recommended Fix
Rebuild from pin c47b12849e43f18d5c374c7069c744cc55b0ea00 with the current converter and commit its output, without hand edits. Update the provenance notes template so it no longer says agents/.cursor-plugin are kept for dual-load.

2. Every build fails package validation 🔴 High🐞 Bug≡ Correctness
Description
check_layout rejects agents/ and .cursor-plugin/ under the package path, but both directories
remain in the repo root and the root publish branch in convert.py removes only plugin.yaml. The
shared build action validates that root immediately after conversion, so CI, release and
publish-dist stop before later gates run.
The repo root contains agents/comment-sicko.md, agents/poteto-agent.md and
.cursor-plugin/plugin.json; that manifest was also edited to version 0.14.8, while the package
version is 0.15.5. The converter’s root publish path replaces staged entries but deletes only
plugin.yaml, leaving both directories in place before the build action runs validation with the
root as its package path.
The issue below was found during a code review. Follow the provided context and guidance below and implement a solution
## Issue description
The repo root still contains `agents/` and `.cursor-plugin/`, which `check_layout` rejects when the build action runs `validate.py --package .` after conversion.

- tools/convert.py[2054-2061]

## Recommended Fix
Delete the root `agents/` and `.cursor-plugin/` directories from the repository and add both to the converter’s obsolete-entries removal list next to `plugin.yaml`, so root rebuilds remove them. Do not hand-edit the `.cursor-plugin/plugin.json` version. Verify that a root build followed by validation succeeds.

3. Unrelated package files changed in the rebuild 🔴 High📎 Requirement gap≡ Correctness
Description
The PR changes far more than the one patterns.md phrase. It deletes the pstack/ tree, and the
README, after-install.md, LICENSE, agents/ and manifest handling are all rewritten.
.cursor-plugin/plugin.json also goes from version 0.15.5 to 0.14.8, which does not match the
pinned source. The provenance still says agents_files: 2 and keeps the Cursor dual-load notes.
The rule requires the manifest and all other payloads to stay unchanged, with only the phrase
differing. The diff changes the version, rewrites the README and install panel, removes the LICENSE
port-modification lines, and restructures the package layout.
iter_text_files now skips tools/, docs/, patches/, .github/ and the root docs
(AGENTS.md, CONTRIBUTING.md, CHANGELOG.md, pyproject.toml), yet `hermes plugins install
iap/pstack-hermes now clones the whole repo root into the plugin install. tools/bans.py`,
tools/convert.py and CONTRIBUTING.md contain the exact strings (http://127.0.0.1:4173,
tailscale.com/install.sh, FOR_AGENTS.md) that the bans say match install-scanner verdicts that
block installs and cannot be overridden with --force, so CI reports clean while the real install
scan sees them.
The bans module says its scope mirrors the real Hermes scanner across every file in the package, and
scanner_gate relies on iter_text_files. The README now tells users to run a root install, which
ships tooling that contains the banned strings the gate now skips.
The issue below was found during a code review. Follow the provided context and guidance below and implement a solution

## Recommended Fix
Either keep installs on a package-only tree (the dist branch or a subdirectory) so tooling is never shipped, or remove ROOT_TOOLING_DIRS/EXEMPT_REPO_FILES and make the gate scan exactly what `hermes plugins install` clones, then rewrite the banned strings in tooling and docs so they don't match literally.

The CI checkout gate now passes the entire repository root to dist_checkout_check.py, whose
staging step copies files that Git ignores. When uv run creates the ignored .venv/, the checker
includes it in its source hashes but its simulated Git checkout omits it, triggering the
untracked-package-file failure even after the root attributes mismatch is fixed.

The new root install command includes the repository's pyproject.toml, whose nonempty dev
dependency group makes Hermes treat this content-only plugin as a Python package installation. In
hermes-agent, hermes plugins install iap/pstack-hermes --enable consequently requires dependency
consent and leaves the plugin disabled in noninteractive sessions unless --yes-deps is supplied.
The PR now directs Hermes to clone the repository root, which contains a populated dev dependency
group. Hermes reads that root project file, counts the group as packages to install, and refuses
dependency consent in a noninteractive session before enabling.
The issue below was found during a code review. Follow the provided context and guidance below and implement a solution

7. The checkout gate rejects every root build 🔴 High🐞 Bug≡ Correctness
Description
CI now passes the repository root to dist_checkout_check.py --source-tree, but stage_tree()
accepts an existing .gitattributes only if it equals the dist-specific attributes file. The root
already has a different .gitattributes with generated-file rules, so both build matrix legs fail
this gate before the reproducibility check.
The CI invocation selects ., whose .gitattributes exists and differs from
tools/assets/dist.gitattributes; the check raises on that mismatch even with --source-tree.

8. Inline-shell regressions have no proof 🔴 High📎 Requirement gap≡ Correctness
Description
The PR adds no regression coverage for the adapted prose or the inline-shell parser cases required
by the checklist. Accidental prose, intentional inline DSL, postfix assertions, isolated operator
mentions and legitimate shell examples can therefore regress without any test failure.
The changed phrase is present, but the repository's tests cover generic converter accounting and
unrelated transforms rather than any inline-shell parser or the required acceptance cases.

publish-dist.yml copies plugin.yaml, which the converter does not produce, and omits the
generated plugin.json after clearing the dist tree. On a master publish, cp -a exits before
staging or pushing; even if that error were bypassed, Hermes Agent and Hermes Guide would lack the
manifest they use to recognize the plugin, and release.yml would fail its comparison against the
dist tree.
The root contains plugin.json but no plugin.yaml, and the converter writes the JSON manifest
while removing the obsolete YAML manifest. The publisher's copy command instead requires YAML and
excludes JSON, so it fails on the missing source; release.yml independently stages plugin.json
and compares its package against dist, confirming that a dist tree without JSON cannot match.
The issue below was found during a code review. Follow the provided context and guidance below and implement a solution
## Issue description
The dist publisher requests a nonexistent `plugin.yaml` and omits the generated `plugin.json`. This stops publication and, if the copy failure were bypassed, would leave dist without the manifest used by Hermes Agent and Hermes Guide and expected by the release comparison.

12. Installed pstack skills do not load✓ Resolved
Description
The root plugin.yaml routes pstack through Hermes’s native-plugin path even though the package has
no native entry point, while convert.py generates a portable plugin.json that check_manifest
does not validate. When the committed package is installed or published, its 47 skills are not
registered; a fresh conversion instead lacks the YAML file required by validation, and rebuilding at
the root leaves competing manifests.
The committed package has a root plugin.yaml, while convert.py writes plugin.json and
check_manifest reads YAML. Hermes distinguishes native YAML plugins from portable Agent Plugins
packages: its portable manifest validation requires a root plugin.json, and packaged skills are
registered through that portable path. The YAML package has no loadable native entry point, while
the converter’s JSON output does not satisfy the current validator.
The issue below was found during a code review. Follow the provided context and guidance below and implement a solution
## Issue description
The committed manifest, converter, validator, and publish paths disagree on the manifest Hermes needs to load pstack’s skills. Align them on one portable root `plugin.json` and verify the resulting package with Hermes’s installed-plugin loader.

13. Rebuilds restore the shell trigger✓ Resolved
Description
The TypeScript wording change at patterns.md:94 exists only in generated output;
tools/convert.py copies the pinned upstream skill without a transform for “non-null assertions.”
Rebuilding from the pin restores the bare ! phrase, bringing back the Hermes inline-shell finding
in the published package and causing reproducibility checks to fail.
The committed generated reference contains the replacement, but the converter’s source-copy and
transform paths have no corresponding phrase adaptation; a search of tools/ finds no “non-null”
transform. The converter stages upstream skill directories and replaces the root skills directory,
so a fresh build overwrites the edit. The requested anchor audit, provenance entry, and inline-shell
DSL validator regression are also absent.
The issue below was found during a code review. Follow the provided context and guidance below and implement a solution
## Issue description
The generated TypeScript reference was edited by hand, but the converter does not reproduce the change. A rebuild from the pinned source restores the inline-shell-triggering phrase.

## Recommended Fix
Add an exact, anchored replacement in `tools/convert.py` that changes “The tells are `!`, `arr[0] as T`” to “The tells are non-null assertions, `arr[0] as T`”. Register the replacement in the anchor audit, append a provenance fix line, and add a tested `tools/validate.py` check that rejects the Hermes inline-shell DSL pattern in skill prose. Rebuild the root package from source commit `c47b12849e43f18d5c374c7069c744cc55b0ea00` rather than editing generated output, then verify that a fresh rebuild retains `non-null assertions`.

16. The shell-trigger fix can silently stop working 🟠 Medium🐞 Bug☼ Reliability
Description
The T-FIX block uses its own replace loop instead of apply_map, so its anchor never enters
st.anchor_hits and the post-build check that fails on rewrites matching nothing never sees it. If
upstream rewords the phrase (for example a different code span next to `!`), the rewrite
matches nothing, and the validator still passes because it only looks for the exact string "The
tells are !", while the build record keeps claiming every rewrite matched.
apply_map records hits that audit_anchor_hits checks to fail loudly. The new block bypasses it
and only appends a fix line when it matched. The validator's check is an exact-substring match.

2. Inline-shell regressions have no proof 📎 Requirement gap≡ Correctness
The PR adds no regression coverage for the adapted prose or the inline-shell parser cases required
by the checklist. Accidental prose, intentional inline DSL, postfix assertions, isolated operator
mentions and legitimate shell examples can therefore regress without any test failure.
Agent Prompt
## Issue description
The TypeScript phrase was changed without tests proving that Hermes distinguishes the original trigger from the adapted prose and continues to accept legitimate shell and TypeScript operator cases.

- tools/tests/test_convert_accounting.py[1-78]
- tools/tests/test_g1_anchor.py[1-109]
## Recommended Fix
Add focused regression tests using the real Hermes parser or scanner. Cover accidental prose, intentional inline DSL, ordinary TypeScript postfix assertions, a harmless isolated operator mention, legitimate shell examples, and non-invoking postfix operators; assert the adapted phrase does not execute or match as inline shell.

3. The checkout gate rejects every root build 🐞 Bug≡ Correctness
CI now passes the repository root to dist_checkout_check.py --source-tree, but stage_tree()
accepts an existing .gitattributes only if it equals the dist-specific attributes file. The root
already has a different .gitattributes with generated-file rules, so both build matrix legs fail
this gate before the reproducibility check.
Agent Prompt
## Issue description
The source-tree checkout test now stages repository attributes rather than the published package's attributes and rejects them.
## Fix Focus Areas
- .github/workflows/ci.yml[54-56]
- tools/dist_checkout_check.py[94-149]
## Recommended Fix
Make the source-tree gate stage only the root package allowlist and apply the dist attributes to that staged package, then test the checkout on both matrix platforms.
ⓘ Copy this prompt and use it to remediate the issue with your preferred AI generation tools
The new root install command includes the repository's pyproject.toml, whose nonempty dev
dependency group makes Hermes treat this content-only plugin as a Python package installation. In
hermes-agent, hermes plugins install iap/pstack-hermes --enable consequently requires dependency
consent and leaves the plugin disabled in noninteractive sessions unless --yes-deps is supplied.
Agent Prompt
## Issue description
The documented root install includes a development `pyproject.toml` that Hermes interprets as an installable Python dependency declaration, preventing noninteractive `--enable` from succeeding without extra consent.
## Fix Focus Areas
- README.md[10-16]
- pyproject.toml[1-24]
- tools/convert.py[44-47]
## Recommended Fix
Make the documented install source contain only the package, without the tooling project's dependency metadata; update the root-install instructions and build layout together. Verify a noninteractive Hermes install enables the resulting package without `--yes-deps`.

The PR changes far more than the one patterns.md phrase. It deletes the pstack/ tree, and the
README, after-install.md, LICENSE, agents/ and manifest handling are all rewritten.
.cursor-plugin/plugin.json also goes from version 0.15.5 to 0.14.8, which does not match the

2. Ignored environments fail the checkout gate 🐞 Bug≡ Correctness
The CI checkout gate now passes the entire repository root to dist_checkout_check.py, whose
staging step copies files that Git ignores. When uv run creates the ignored .venv/, the checker
includes it in its source hashes but its simulated Git checkout omits it, triggering the
untracked-package-file failure even after the root attributes mismatch is fixed.

16. A rebuild can erase a sibling directory 🐞 Bug☼ Reliability
The root publish branch unconditionally removes the fixed sibling directory
<repository>.pkg-backup before taking its own backup. If a user has data there, or an interrupted
earlier build left a backup there, running conversion deletes it without checking ownership or
preserving its contents.
Agent Prompt
## Issue description
Root conversion recursively deletes a preexisting sibling backup directory that it cannot establish belongs to this run.
## Fix Focus Areas

3. Every build fails package validation 🐞 Bug≡ Correctness
check_layout rejects agents/ and .cursor-plugin/ under the package path, but both directories
remain in the repo root and the root publish branch in convert.py removes only plugin.yaml. The
shared build action validates that root immediately after conversion, so CI, release and
publish-dist stop before later gates run.
Agent Prompt
## Issue description
The repo root still contains `agents/` and `.cursor-plugin/`, which `check_layout` rejects when the build action runs `validate.py --package .` after conversion.
## Fix Focus Areas
- tools/convert.py[2033-2036]
- tools/convert.py[2054-2061]
- tools/validate.py[340-343]
- .cursor-plugin/plugin.json[1-7]
## Recommended Fix
Delete the root `agents/` and `.cursor-plugin/` directories from the repository and add both to the converter’s obsolete-entries removal list next to `plugin.yaml`, so root rebuilds remove them. Do not hand-edit the `.cursor-plugin/plugin.json` version. Verify that a root build followed by validation succeeds.

iter_text_files now skips tools/, docs/, patches/, .github/ and the root docs

iap/pstack-hermes now clones the whole repo root into the plugin install. tools/bans.py`,
tools/convert.py and CONTRIBUTING.md contain the exact strings (http://127.0.0.1:4173,
tailscale.com/install.sh, FOR_AGENTS.md) that the bans say match install-scanner verdicts that
block installs and cannot be overridden with --force, so CI reports clean while the real install
scan sees them.

The scanner gate now skips repo tooling and docs, but a root install ships them, and they contain strings the real Hermes scanner blocks.
## Fix Focus Areas

## Recommended Fix
Either keep installs on a package-only tree (the dist branch or a subdirectory) so tooling is never shipped, or remove ROOT_TOOLING_DIRS/EXEMPT_REPO_FILES and make the gate scan exactly what `hermes plugins install` clones, then rewrite the banned strings in tooling and docs so they don't match literally.

5. Committed build record wasn't made by this converter 🐞 Bug≡ Correctness
The committed .build-provenance.txt has no issue #107 entry, which convert.py appends when the
TS-pattern rewrite applies. It also still says agents_files: 2 and that
.cursor-plugin/plugin.json is preserved, while the converter now writes agents_files: 0 and
drops both. The record therefore doesn't describe how the shipped tree was built, and the ticket's
requirement to record the adaptation in build provenance is not met.
Agent Prompt
## Issue description
The committed provenance doesn't match what the current converter emits: the #107 entry is missing and the agents/.cursor-plugin lines are stale.
## Fix Focus Areas

## Recommended Fix
Rebuild from pin c47b12849e43f18d5c374c7069c744cc55b0ea00 with the current converter and commit its output, without hand edits. Update the provenance notes template so it no longer says agents/.cursor-plugin are kept for dual-load.

17. The shell-trigger fix can silently stop working 🐞 Bug☼ Reliability
The T-FIX block uses its own replace loop instead of apply_map, so its anchor never enters
st.anchor_hits and the post-build check that fails on rewrites matching nothing never sees it. If
upstream rewords the phrase (for example a different code span next to `!`), the rewrite
matches nothing, and the validator still passes because it only looks for the exact string "The
tells are !", while the build record keeps claiming every rewrite matched.
Agent Prompt
## Issue description
The #107 rewrite skips the converter's check for rewrites that match nothing, so upstream wording changes make it silently do nothing.
## Fix Focus Areas
- tools/convert.py[1150-1161]

## Recommended Fix
Define the mapping as a named map, apply it through `apply_map(..., map_name='T-107', st=st)`, and register it in the maps passed to `audit_anchor_hits`. Make the validator detect any backticked `!` span followed by another inline code span, not just the one literal phrase.

18. Agent instructions lose their enforced rules 🐞 Bug⚙ Maintainability
The AGENTS.md edit deletes the hard rules for pin lock-step, anchor audits, "excluded upstreams stay
excluded" and converter changes being tracked in issues, and leaves a broken sentence ("...identity
0.15.5." followed by "this migration merges."). It still lists pstack/ as the generated tree, and
CONTRIBUTING still links the deleted drift runbook and says "four workflows … all three", so coding
agents get guidance that no longer matches the repo layout.
Agent Prompt
## Issue description
AGENTS.md lost its enforced rules and contains a broken sentence; AGENTS.md and CONTRIBUTING.md still describe the old `pstack/` layout and the deleted runbook.
## Fix Focus Areas

- CONTRIBUTING.md[172-180]
## Recommended Fix
Restore the pin lock-step, anchor-audit, excluded-upstreams and converter-tracking rules, updated for the root layout. Repair the master-branch sentence.

Walkthrough
The package moves from pstack/ to the repository root. The converter, validators, CI workflows, release workflows, documentation, and repository rules now use the root-level layout. Cursor-specific output and upstream drift monitoring are removed.
Changes: Root package migration
Layer / File(s)
Summary
Root package build and publication tools/convert.py, tools/validate.py, tools/slug_drift.py, .build-provenance.txt, .gitattributes
The converter publishes package files at the repository root, drops Cursor-specific files, updates generated text, and retains rollback handling. Validation accepts the root layout and YAML manifests.
CI and release delivery .github/actions/*, .github/workflows/*, tools/tests/test_release_delivery.py, tools/tests/test_panel_location.py
CI, distribution, and release workflows compare, stage, verify, and package explicit root-level files and directories. The upstream drift workflow is removed.
Validation and repository scans tools/bans.py, tools/validate.py, tools/check_pins.py, tools/tests/*, pyproject.toml, .gitignore
Scans exclude root tooling paths, layout checks reject removed directories, skill checks detect the updated trigger text, and workflow fixtures cover the remaining workflows.
Documentation describes root installation and the updated package scope. Legacy subdirectory documentation, the upstream-drift runbook, and nested package documentation are removed.

Merge Risk: High · up to 8f6d1
This change moves the package to the repository root, but several CI, dist-publish, release-test and validation paths still assume the old manifest or layout and will fail. Lint, validation, dist publication and the release test need fixing before merge. Several documents also contradict the new layout and could mislead maintainers.
Security architecture risk: Moderate · up to 8f6d1
The migration has package-boundary and recovery problems that can block updates or leave a local checkout partly rebuilt. Existing release checks limit the chance of publishing a mismatched package, but do not resolve those problems.
Retained concerns
Medium · reliability · inferred: The root-package boundary is inconsistent across generation, validation and delivery. Conversion omits agents/ and .cursor-plugin/ from its staging tree but leaves the tracked root directories intact; validation rejects both and therefore blocks the shared build path. Independently, the dist publisher copies plugin.yaml although conversion produces plugin.json and removes the legacy name. These fail-closed mismatches prevent compatibility update delivery rather than bypassing the checks, and can strand existing dist installations on their previous package.
Medium · reliability · inferred: Root publication widens replacement from an isolated directory rename to sequential deletion and copying of live package entries. Caught failures restore only backed-up names: newly created destinations can remain, while deleted legacy manifests cannot be restored. Interruption can leave mixed-generation manifest, skills and configuration files; a subsequent run deletes the previous backup rather than recovering it. Existing entries are backed up on the normal path, but that does not provide a complete recovery boundary for root readers. The demonstrated scope is the local checkout, not a partially pushed remote release.
Security review details
Security Blast Radius
observed — The new root publisher can replace generated files and directories within one repository checkout. Dist publication and release jobs retain repository contents-write authority, while PR CI retains contents-read authority; the inspected workflow changes do not increase those permission declarations.
Trust Boundaries and Controls
observed — All three inspected delivery workflows disable checkout credential persistence. The dist publisher also removes its authenticated clone URL from the local remote configuration and supplies authentication explicitly for pushing. Whole-workspace CI upload alone therefore does not establish a checkout-token disclosure.
observed — The release ZIP enumerates package paths and excludes repository tooling and documentation. The local scanner likewise excludes those repository paths, but this does not establish equivalent security coverage for repository-root Git installations: real Hermes loading is an external integration, and the validator permits static-only results when that runtime is unavailable.
Resilience and Maintainability Implications
inferred — The demonstrated delivery failures are fail-closed: validation returns failure, and a missing manifest terminates dist synchronization before commit and push. This contains remote publication of an incomplete package, but leaves update availability dependent on resolving the migrated package contract.

Update the distribution copy command to copy the converter-produced plugin.json
instead of the obsolete plugin.yaml, keeping the other copied files unchanged.

Synchronize the documented release version.
This rule now declares v0.5.x, but CHANGELOG.md still lists 0.4.4 as the latest numbered release and CONTRIBUTING.md still requires a v0.4.x section. A release cannot follow both rules. Update the release documents together, or keep this rule at v0.4.x until the migration is released. (raw.githubusercontent.com)

Align the release-version guidance in AGENTS.md, CHANGELOG.md, and
CONTRIBUTING.md so they consistently describe the same release series; either
update the changelog and contribution requirement to v0.5.x or keep the
AGENTS.md rule at v0.4.x until that migration is released.

Use the generated manifest filename.
The converter emits root plugin.json; plugin.yaml is only the validator’s legacy fallback, and the release workflow packages plugin.json. Update these README references, and the matching changelog entry, to plugin.json unless the converter, validator, and release workflow change together. (raw.githubusercontent.com)

Remove the unused yaml import to restore the lint gate.
The supplied uv run --frozen ruff check tools logs report F401 for this import and I001 for the import block. The lint-and-tests job cannot pass while these errors remain. Remove the import and resolve the reported import-block error.

Remove the retained Cursor directory before validating root output.
The root publisher removes obsolete manifest files but leaves the existing .cursor-plugin/ directory. tools/validate.py rejects that directory at Lines 342–343, and the supplied ci / 2_build log confirms this exact failure. Remove the obsolete directory as part of the root migration, with rollback coverage for the removal.

Update the root migration flow near the obsolete manifest cleanup loop to remove
the retained .cursor-plugin directory as well. Include the directory removal in
the existing rollback handling so it is restored if the migration fails.

Make root-publish rollback restore the complete pre-publish tree.
When --out resolves to REPO_ROOT, a failed replacement can leave the root incomplete. plugin.yaml and plugin.json.bak are removed without backups, and entries that were absent before publishing are not tracked. If a later shutil.copytree or shutil.copy2 call raises, rollback restores only backed_up, so it can leave a new or partially copied entry and cannot restore either manifest.
Track the removed manifests in the backup set and track each newly created entry before copying it. On failure, delete the new entries first, then restore all backed-up entries. Keep the existing backup and restore behavior for skills, config, and assets.

Create plugin.json in the release fixture.
The release workflow copies plugin.json, but this fixture creates only plugin.yaml. In the expected-success case, cp -a exits nonzero and the test fails even when the payload and provenance match. Write plugin.json on both fixture branches so the test reaches its intended comparison. (raw.githubusercontent.com)
