The Gemini extension installed fine, but none of the skills were discovered. The root cause: skills/ was a symlink to plugins/signoz/skills. Gemini's installer clones the repo to a temp directory and copies it into ~/.gemini/extensions/, rewriting symlinks to absolute paths pointing at that temp clone — which is then deleted. The installed extension ended up with a dangling skills symlink, so skill discovery found nothing.
Changes
Replaced the root skills/ symlink with a real copy of plugins/signoz/skills/ (12 skills). plugins/signoz/skills/ remains the source of truth.
Extended the auto CalVer bump workflow to rsync plugins/signoz/skills/ → skills/ whenever the signoz plugin changes, so the two copies can't drift. The sync lands in the same auto-bump commit.
Documented the convention in CONTRIBUTING.md: never edit root skills/ directly.
Testing
gemini extensions validate . passes.
Installed from local path: ~/.gemini/extensions/signoz/skills/ now contains real skill directories (previously a dangling symlink), and /skills list shows all 12 skills.
