fix(skills): pin dispatch-degradation citations to the plugin root - #40
Conversation
Issue #27 described per-skill copies of dispatch-degradation.md. Git history shows none ever existed: the ladder has always lived once at references/dispatch-degradation.md. The real defect was seven skill citations that wrote a bare `references/dispatch-degradation.md`, which reads as skill-local and resolves to a missing file (e.g. compound). Each citation now names the plugin root, and validate.sh gains check 5a: no skill ships a copy of a root shared reference, and every skill citation of dispatch-degradation.md names its root location. The release-loop Gate handling citation changed SKILL.md bytes, so the conformance digest chain is repinned (8 golden skill_sha256, 2 clause digests, source_generation). Constraint: release-loop conformance pins exact SKILL.md bytes and heading-section digests Rejected: skill-local copies or a skills/_shared/ directory | a root copy already exists and copies drift Confidence: high Scope-risk: narrow Directive: cite root shared references with "(plugin root)" so they never read as skill-local Tested: bash scripts/validate.sh (all checks pass except python-compat, which needs python3.9 and python3.14 absent from this container); guard fails on an unqualified citation and on a shadow copy Not-tested: question-tools.md citations keep the same ambiguity; left out of scope Refs: #27 Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01KBjrdHg7U5wXGbQw18RDJ7

Check 5a only matched the backticked form, so a Markdown link such as [ladder](references/dispatch-degradation.md) passed without naming the plugin root. Match the path on a path boundary regardless of formatting. Also drop four __pycache__ .pyc files the previous commit picked up by accident, and ignore __pycache__/ so it cannot recur.

Summary
Closes #27. Skill-local copies never existed:
dispatch-degradation.mdhas always had exactly one copy, at the repo-rootreferences/directory, andgit logfinds noskills/*/references/dispatch-degradation.mdever. The real problem was 7 citations that wrote a barereferences/dispatch-degradation.md. Inside a skill, that path looks skill-local, so compound's citation pointed to a file that doesn't exist. This PR makes those citations name the plugin root and adds a guard so the problem can't come back.Changes
(plugin root)to the dispatch-degradation citations in compound, designing, planning, release-loop, reviewing,reviewing/references/merge-pipeline.md, and shipping. The wording matches what debugging, implementing, and retrospective already used.scripts/validate.sh. It fails when:references/*.md), orreferences/dispatch-degradation.mdwithout saying where it lives (plugin root / repo root).docs/solutions/workflow-issues/conformance-golden-repin-digest-chain.md.

bash scripts/validate.shpasses: every check passes except[python-compat], which fails because this container has nopython3.9orpython3.14. That failure comes from the environment, not this change; CI should run it.source_generation=7ab46dfd…. The new guard fails on an unqualified citation and on a shadow copy, and passes on the fixed tree.Remaining gaps
references/question-tools.mdcitations have the same ambiguity (for example in compound, compound-refresh, designing, planning, release, and shipping). They are outside this issue's scope. Extending the guard only means adding the file to theroot_qualifiedlist in check 5a and qualifying those citations.🤖 Generated with Claude Code
