Drü's Claude Code plugin marketplace. Versioned home for the machinery shared
across the personal fleet AND the AppleTree tenant base — one source, two
consumers, no copy drift. Machinery only: the knowledge files the agent
generates live outside the plugins, under ~/.claude/references/** per the
design record.

The procedural-knowledge system, gates included (gate hooks vendored from
orchard-codex develop-sweatshop):
| piece | what |
|---|---|
/how-do-i |
the gateway to everything the codex knows — forks the procedure-scout agent, which searches the record stores via scripts/query-records.sh and returns the governing procedure, verbatim commands, traps, and a standing label per source. query-records.sh is its SOLE retrieval surface (survey with --keyword/--kind/--links-to/--recall, batch-read with --cat); a record it can reach but not query is reported as a matcher/keywords bug rather than worked around |
digest-record (PostToolUse:Skill) |
stores the digest each /how-do-i fork returns, one file per digest under $TURN_STATE_DIR/digests, so the next /how-do-i in the session starts warm and can separate "already established" from "newly found". Read-only replay via scripts/session-digest-read.sh --read; it changes what the fork STARTS WITH, never whether the gate fires |
/update-records |
THE single entry point for every knowledge artifact — there is no separate create command. Script-backed via scripts/log-record.sh: mistake / decision / solution / failure-mode. Written by hand from skills/update-records/templates/: procedure, evolution, and the four rule shapes — principle, invariant, policy, standard. Written by following the longhand procedures in skills/update-records/references/: procedure, reference, skill. Carries the test for choosing among the rule kinds |
| record stores | ten, one per GRC artifact class: failure-modes (risk register), decisions (governance choices), solutions (control patterns), procedures (control implementations), research (evidence), plans (roadmap), principles (judgment rules), invariants (absolute constraints), policies (standing authority), standards (control objectives). Defined once in scripts/lib/stores.sh; discover at runtime with query-records.sh --list-stores, never by enumerating them in prose |
/am-i-done |
cold-read review of an am-i-done report (incl. the "Procedures followed" evolution table) by the work-reviewer agent before calling work done |
/evolve-procedure |
patch an EXISTING procedure from a correction, incident, or friction — deviation, missing step, or stale/broken ref; procedures only, every material patch appends a dated line to that procedure dir's EVOLUTION.md |
how-do-i-gate (PreToolUse) |
blocks tool calls until Skill(procedures:how-do-i) has run this turn; fail-open, blind fail-opens recorded |
am-i-done-gate (Stop) |
requires one Skill(procedures:am-i-done) review on any turn that called tools; asks at most once |
turn-state-reset (UserPromptSubmit) / turn-state-record (PostToolUse:Skill) |
the turn-boundary state the gates read ($TURN_STATE_DIR, default /tmp/claude-turn-state) |
enforce-frontmatter (PostToolUse:Write|Edit) |
every record .md written under a store beneath $KNOWLEDGE_ROOT (default ~/.claude) must carry the six-key frontmatter (id, kind, date, keywords, links, status) — vendored lint-frontmatter.sh, exit-2 feedback on violation |
| EVOLUTION.md convention | every procedure dir carries an EVOLUTION.md log (evolution.template.md in skills/update-records/templates/) — one dated line per material change, newest first; /update-records explains it |
The machinery is vendored from orchard-codex develop-sweatshop (skills,
procedure-scout/work-reviewer agents, gate hooks + lib, query-records.sh +
log-record.sh + shared awk matcher, linter, templates) with deliberate adaptation, marked
PLUGIN ADAPTATION in the source where it touches code:
-
Data-root defaults: every script's record-store root defaults to
~/.claude(the host codex) instead of the script's own parent dir — upstream the scripts live inside the codex repo; installed as a plugin they must not write records into the plugin dir. Override withCODEX_ROOT(or the per-script vars:QUERY_RECORDS_ROOT,MISTAKES_JSONL,DECISIONS_DIR,SOLUTIONS_DIR,FAILURE_MODES_DIR,LINT_FRONTMATTER_ROOT,TURN_STATE_DIR,KNOWLEDGE_ROOTfor the frontmatter hook). -
Script paths in skill/agent bodies: the skills and agents reference the plugin-shipped scripts via
${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}(substituted by Claude Code in skill and agent markdown) instead of upstream's repo-relative paths, which would resolve against the caller's cwd. -
Fork-skill model pin: a
context: forkskill inherits the PARENT SESSION's model, not themodel:itsagent:declares — the agent-side value is only honoured on theAgent(subagent_type:)path. Soskills/how-do-i/SKILL.mdandskills/am-i-done/SKILL.mdeach re-declaremodel:in their own frontmatter, andhooks/tests/gate-skill-model.batsholds the two declarations in agreement.recall/skills/recall/SKILL.mdpins one for the same reason, with noagent:to hold it against. Measured on this fork path: an opus-parent session's fork moved toclaude-haiku-4-5when the skill declaredmodel: haiku, while the parent's own turns stayed on opus — the pin binds the fork without touching the caller. Upstream has no equivalent because the gate does not run as a forked skill there.This is documented harness design, not a bug — do not refile it. The Claude Code docs state it outright: the fork-vs-named-subagent table in sub-agents gives a fork's model as "same as main session" against a named subagent's "from the subagent's
modelfield", and the skills frontmatter reference says that withcontext: fork, a SKILL'smodel:"sets the forked subagent's model instead". The skill-level pin is therefore the only control surface on this path, and re-declaring it per fork skill is the intended usage rather than a workaround.hooks/tests/scout-retrieval.batssweeps every agent declaringmodel:across every plugin and requires the fork skill that dispatches it to pin the same tier. -
No upstream counterpart (query-records is now sourced here): orchard-codex#268 phase 1 removed these scripts from the codex, so this plugin is the source of truth for
query-records.sh. Machinery added since —--recallovermistakes.jsonl, and--catfor batch full-record retrieval — has nothing upstream to stay byte-close to. Each is marked at its point of divergence. -
Fork-path session state:
hooks/digest-record.sh+hooks/lib/session-digest.sh+scripts/session-digest-read.shcarry a /how-do-i digest forward within one session, so a repeat invocation starts warm instead of re-searching the same ground. Same root cause as the model pin — the gate runs as a forked skill here and does not upstream — and the same storage discipline asturn-state.sh: one file per digest, every write a fresh file, no read-modify-write. Digests live one level BELOW$TURN_STATE_DIRprecisely so the per-turn reset cannot reach them; the gate still fires every turn regardless of what the fork starts with. Tunable withSESSION_DIGEST_DIR(default$TURN_STATE_DIR/digests),SESSION_DIGEST_KEEP(prior digests replayed per warm start, default 3,0= uncapped) andSESSION_DIGEST_TTL_DAYS(default 2, the only thing that ever removes a digest). A non-numeric value on either count falls back to its default rather than erroring. A blind failure to store a digest is recorded toGATE_FAILOPEN_LOGunder gatedigest-record— group by gate before computing any fail-open rate, since this one is a writer, not a gate. -
Fork-path agent prompt: a
context: forkskill takes itsagent:as identity only — the agent file's prompt body and itstools:allowlist are NOT loaded into the fork. The skills fork table gives a forked skill's Task as "SKILL.md content" against a system prompt "from agent type", and measurement agrees: a distinctive first-action marker injected intoagents/procedure-scout.mdran zero times in a live fork, which then used the Read tool thattools: Bashdoes not grant. So the retrieval contract — the survey →--catbatch-read loop, theUNREACHABLEbug report, the output shape, and the sole-retrieval-surface Boundaries — lives inskills/how-do-i/SKILL.md, the file that actually binds.agents/procedure-scout.mdkeeps the same contract because it still governs a directAgent(subagent_type:)spawn, andhooks/tests/scout-retrieval.batspins the load-bearing clauses in each file independently so the two cannot silently split. Same class as the model pin above: the fork path reads the SKILL, never the agent. There is no confirmed skill-level tool restriction for forks —disallowed-toolsis declared on the skill as a best-effort second layer, but the docs do not say it reaches a fork, so the prose prohibition is the control. -
Plugin-scoped skill names in gate messages: the gates' deny/block text names
Skill(procedures:how-do-i)/Skill(procedures:am-i-done), the forms that resolve when shipped in a plugin.hooks/turn-state-record.shaccepts the bare and the scoped form alike, so either satisfies a gate. When the named skill file is not readable beside the hooks (../skills/<name>/SKILL.md) the gate releases instead of denying, recorded aswhy:"skill-unresolvable".
Host-neutral wording in place of codex-internal file/hook references is a further, prose-only adaptation class and is not individually marked.
Verified end-to-end with claude --plugin-dir: the gate cycle works as
shipped — tool_input.skill arrives as the bare skill name, the reset hook
stamps the turn, the record hook marks how_do_i, and the fork dispatches
the plugin's own procedure-scout.
The upstream bats suites for everything shipped here (gates + libs +
fail-open, linter, query-records.sh + ranking) are
vendored under plugins/procedures/{hooks,scripts}/tests/. Run:
cd plugins/procedures && bats hooks/tests
Pick the right specialist, brief it properly, and mint a new one when none fits. The machinery ships; the roster is the host's — this plugin carries the ROUTER and the RULE FOR MAKING agents, never agent files themselves, so one plugin serves a fleet whose rosters differ.
| piece | what |
|---|---|
/delegate |
classify the task shape (kind / difficulty / focus), run scripts/route-delegation.sh for the agent + model + why, then build the briefing — self-contained, result-demanding, coding/docs standards woven in — and verify what comes back |
/create-new-sub-agent |
mint the specialist the router had no row for: templates/agent.template.md (single mandate, right-sized tier, tools allowlist, tripwires) + references/write-agent-doc.procedure.md, written into the host roster |
scripts/route-delegation.sh |
the routing table AS A SCRIPT — one row per task shape, each agent's model read LIVE from the roster's model: frontmatter, so retuning the roster propagates without editing prose. --list dumps every route |
scripts/lint-agent-files.sh |
structural lint for agent files: frontmatter + Role + Boundaries, no dates, no issue refs (hard); size budget and missing model: (warn) |
Config: CLAUDE_AGENTS_DIR for the roster, else $CODEX_ROOT/agents, else
~/.claude/agents; LINT_AGENT_FILES_ROOT (else $CODEX_ROOT, else
~/.claude) for the linter — the same data-root chaining as procedures.
Router exit codes: 0 matched, 1 usage error, 2 no specialist fits or
this host has no roster at all, 3 roster drift. That second exit-2 case is
the deliberate agent-less degradation: a fresh tenant that has minted no
agents gets the self-extension rule ("mint one via /create-new-sub-agent"),
not a drift error about a corruption that does not exist. A matched agent
missing while other agents exist is still exit 3 — real drift.
Vendored from the codex with two of the adaptation classes procedures uses,
each marked PLUGIN ADAPTATION: data-root defaults, and host-neutral wording
in place of codex-internal file/hook references. (No fork-skill model pin here
— this plugin ships no context: fork skill.) Tests:
cd plugins/delegation && bats scripts/tests
/about-my-person — maintains the ONE whole-readable file about who your
person is (Identity / Preferences / Standing context / dated Changelog):
read whole, replace stale facts, never append blind, no secrets ever.
Lives in a directory alongside EVOLUTION.md (dated one-line log of
material profile changes, newest first). Config: ABOUT_MY_PERSON_DIR
(default ~/.claude/about-my-person) or ABOUT_MY_PERSON_FILE to override
the file path directly.
Daily working notes: /take-note scratchpad (one file per day, rollover with
carry-over) + a SessionStart hook loading today's (or yesterday's) note and
ABOUT_MY_PERSON.md when present. Config: KNOWLEDGE_WS (default
~/workspace) or NOTES_DIR directly.
/recall <topic> — searches what you and Claude said in past Claude Code
sessions and synthesizes it into the current one (what it is, what was decided,
where it stands, what's open). Runs in a fork, so reading transcripts never
lands in the main context. Ships the indexer it depends on: scripts/session-index.py (an
incremental SQLite FTS5 index over the session transcripts) plus a SessionEnd
hook that keeps it warm — the skill also rebuilds on invocation, so the hook is
a latency optimisation, not a correctness requirement.
Scope worth knowing before installing:
- It indexes the prose of both sides — your prompts and Claude's replies — but not tool calls or their output, so anything Claude only ever wrote into a file or a command is not searchable.
- It indexes every project on the machine into one store, so
/recallcan surface content from unrelated repos or clients. There is no scoping flag. - Top-level sessions only; subagent transcripts are excluded.
Requires python3 and a sqlite3 built with the FTS5 extension (the default
on most platforms; Alpine's stock sqlite and some conda builds lack it — recall
reports this rather than failing obscurely).
Config: CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR (default ~/.claude), or SESSION_INDEX_DB /
SESSION_INDEX_PROJECTS to override either path directly. The index lives at
~/.claude/sessions.db; to remove it, rm ~/.claude/sessions.db*.
Started from the codex's scripts/session-index.py + hooks/index-sessions.sh,
but unlike the other plugins this is a fork, not a vendoring — the data-root
adaptation is marked PLUGIN ADAPTATION as elsewhere, and beyond that the
indexer was substantially rewritten (schema versioning, incremental durability,
provenance from the recorded cwd, concurrency-safe open). Do not treat it as
tracking upstream.
scripts/fts5_query.py is a separate unit with its own table-driven tests: the
translation of a human's words into an FTS5 MATCH expression has repeatedly
shipped same-class defects, each a valid expression that matched the wrong
documents. It has a pure str -> str contract; it opens a private in-memory
SQLite connection to ask the tokenizer whether a token indexes to anything, but
touches no on-disk database, filesystem, or environment. Do not reimplement it
in the indexer.
