chore(lint): exclude CHANGELOG.md from markdownlint#13
Merged
Conversation
CHANGELOG.md is a generated artifact (scripts/generate-changelog.sh writes single-line bullets per PR; one bullet often exceeds the 120-char MD013 line-length limit because PR-body content is dense). Wrapping those lines would conflict with the generator on every regen. Mirrors the existing exclusion for spec/CHANGELOG.md (also a generated or vendored artifact). Both files share the same exclusion rationale: content is authored elsewhere, lint rules don't apply at this layer. Surfaced when the v0.2.0 release CHANGELOG (rich PR-body bullets across 9 cherry-picked PRs after the parallel PR-body audit) tripped MD013 on the release/v0.2.0 -> main CI run.

## Summary `CHANGELOG.md` is a generated artifact — `scripts/generate-changelog.sh` writes single-line bullets per PR, and rich PR-body bullets routinely exceed the 120-char MD013 line-length limit. Wrapping those lines would conflict with the generator on every regen. Mirrors the existing exclusion for `spec/CHANGELOG.md` (also generated / vendored). Same rationale: content is authored elsewhere, this repo's lint rules don't apply at this layer. Surfaced when the v0.2.0 release CHANGELOG (9 cherry-picked PRs' worth of curated bullets after the parallel PR-body audit) tripped MD013 on the `release/v0.2.0` → `main` CI run. ## Changelog ### Changed - `.markdownlint-cli2.yaml` excludes `CHANGELOG.md` from linting. Aligns its treatment with `spec/CHANGELOG.md` and reflects that the file is regenerated by `scripts/generate-changelog.sh`, not hand-edited. Per-line content is governed by PR-body bullets in source PRs, not by this repo's MD013 line-length rule. ## Type of Change - [x] `chore`: Maintenance tasks (config) ## Related Issues/Stories - Related PRs: gates `release/v0.2.0` → `main` (PR #12). The v0.2.0 release CHANGELOG content is the trigger; without this lint exclusion, every release will trip MD013. ## Testing - [x] Manual testing completed - [x] All tests passing **Test Summary:** - `markdownlint-cli2 'CHANGELOG.md'` after the config change: `Linting: 0 file(s) / Summary: 0 error(s)` (file correctly excluded). - `markdownlint-cli2 '**/*.md'` (full repo): unchanged behavior on all other files. ## Files Modified **Modified:** - `.markdownlint-cli2.yaml` — added `- "CHANGELOG.md"` to ignores list with a comment explaining the rationale. ## Breaking Changes - [x] No breaking changes Lint config tweak only; no shipping content affected. ## Deployment Notes - [x] No special deployment steps required ## Checklist - [x] Code follows project conventions and style guidelines - [x] Commit messages follow [Conventional Commits](https://www.conventionalcommits.org/) - [x] Self-review of code completed - [x] Tests added/updated and passing - [x] No new warnings or errors introduced - [x] Changes are backward compatible

Bump VERSION to 0.2.0 and regenerate CHANGELOG via scripts/generate-changelog.sh against the cherry-picked PRs (#1, #2, #3, #4, #6, #7, #8, #9, #10, #11, #13). PR bodies were audited by parallel subagents against .github/pull_request_template.md before this regen. PR #13 added CHANGELOG.md to .markdownlint-cli2.yaml ignores so the generated long-line bullets no longer trip MD013 on the release CI run. Squash-merge of release/v0.2.0 onto main becomes the v0.2.0 anchor.

## Summary First public release of the `agent-native-cli` skill bundle (`agentnative-skill` repo). Establishes the canonical brettdavies cherry-pick release pattern (`feature → dev → release/* → main`), ships the flat install layout consumers will pull via plain `git clone`, and lands the consumer-side update-check mechanism that replaces the deprecated `install.json` SHA-pin advisory. Cherry-picks 10 dev PRs (#1–#4, #6–#11, #13) onto `origin/main` plus three direct-to-release-branch fixup commits (`9f6e276`, `23e1a76` from the bootstrap window) and the curated `chore(release): v0.2.0` commit. PR #5 (docs-only public-flip follow-up) stayed on `dev` per the cherry-pick rule. The original in-cherry-pick spec re-vendor (`837ab9a` → `1640460`) was converted to a real PR (#10) so the v0.2.0 CHANGELOG carries a curated bullet for the spec v0.2.0 → v0.3.0 bump. PR-body template alignment was audited by parallel subagents before this regeneration — empty stubs removed, missing template sections added, internal-detail bullets moved out of `## Changelog`, PR #11's nested sub-bullets flattened. ## Changelog ### Added - Version-controlled GitHub repository rulesets for `main`, `dev`, and release tags (`v*`). Apply procedure documented in `.github/rulesets/README.md`. by @brettdavies in #1 - `AGENTS.md` (root) describing the bundle layout, lint commands, branch model, and hard rules for agents. by @brettdavies in #2 - `RELEASES.md` (root) documenting a release procedure for this repo (later rewritten in #3 to the canonical full `release/*` pattern). - `.github/pull_request_template.md` (canonical PR template). - `.github/workflows/guard-main-docs.yml` caller for the `brettdavies/.github` reusable workflow that blocks `docs/plans/`, `docs/solutions/`, `docs/brainstorms/`, `docs/reviews/` from PRs targeting `main`. - `cliff.toml` — git-cliff configuration mirroring sibling repos. by @brettdavies in #3 - `scripts/generate-changelog.sh` — release-time CHANGELOG generator. Reads PR-body `## Changelog` sections and prepends a curated, attributed `[X.Y.Z]` section. Authoritative; never hand-edit `CHANGELOG.md`. - `CONTRIBUTING.md` — how to propose changes, link to release procedure. - `.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/bug_report.md` + `bundle_proposal.md` (replaces `principle_proposal.md` with corrected routing). - Vendored `spec/` tree from `agentnative-spec` — `VERSION`, `CHANGELOG.md`, `README.md`, and seven `principles/p*.md` files with machine-readable `requirements[]` frontmatter. The skill points at this canonical text instead of paraphrasing. by @brettdavies in #4 - `getting-started.md` covering three working agent loops (existing CLI / new Rust / other language), canonical `anc check --output json` invocations, and a "where things live" map. - `scripts/sync-spec.sh` for re-vendoring `agentnative-spec` on demand. - `LICENSE-APACHE` — dual-license under MIT or Apache-2.0 (consumer's choice). by @brettdavies in #6 - `bin/check-update` — gstack-style consumer-side update-check. Compares the installed `VERSION` against the producer repo's `main`, emits `UPGRADE_AVAILABLE <local> <remote>`, with cache TTL (60 min UP_TO_DATE / 720 min UPGRADE_AVAILABLE) and 3-level snooze (24h / 48h / 7d). State directory: `$HOME/.cache/agent-native-cli/`. by @brettdavies in #8 - `SKILL.md` `## Update check` section documenting the script's invocation and the `AskUserQuestion`-driven upgrade flow. ### Changed - **BREAKING (install layout):** Skill content lives at the repo root (`SKILL.md`, `bin/`, `spec/`, `references/`, `templates/`, `VERSION`). Plain `git clone --depth 1` and `git pull --ff-only` are the load-bearing install + update commands; no sparse-checkout magic, no post-install scripts. by @brettdavies in #9 (final flat shape; intermediate `bundle/` indirection from #3 reverted before launch). - License changed from MIT-only to dual MIT or Apache-2.0 (no MIT compatibility regression). by @brettdavies in #6 - Documentation now points at `https://anc.dev/skill` instead of `https://anc.dev/install`. by @brettdavies in #7 - Spec content vendored under `spec/` re-vendored from `agentnative-spec` v0.2.0 to v0.3.0. All 7 principles flip `status: draft` → `status: active`; prose tightened across P1–P7 from upstream's G11 red-team pass. No requirement IDs added/removed/renamed; no level changes. by @brettdavies in #10 - `scripts/sync-spec.sh` no longer accepts `SPEC_REF`. The script always vendors the latest `v*` tag, queried from `SPEC_REMOTE_URL` (default `https://github.com/brettdavies/agentnative.git`) via `git ls-remote --tags --sort=-version:refname` and shallow-cloned for extraction. On any remote failure, falls back to the existing `SPEC_ROOT`-based logic (default `$HOME/dev/agentnative-spec`). New env var `SPEC_REMOTE_URL` overrides the remote; the temp clone is auto-cleaned on script exit via trap. by @brettdavies in #11 ### Fixed - Harden `bin/check-update` against malformed local `VERSION` (apply SemVer regex; malformed → silent exit) and against curl failure being cached as UP_TO_DATE (skip cache write on network failure so the next invocation retries). by @brettdavies in #8 - Align table pipes in `SKILL.md` and `getting-started.md` (markdownlint MD060). by @brettdavies in #9 ### Documentation - `README.md` — License section rewritten to reflect dual licensing and link both LICENSE files; tree row updated. by @brettdavies in #6 - `CONTRIBUTING.md` — License section rewritten: contributions are dual-licensed at the consumer's option, no CLA, with an explicit pointer to the Apache §3 patent grant. - - `.markdownlint-cli2.yaml` excludes `CHANGELOG.md` from linting (matches the existing exclusion for `spec/CHANGELOG.md`). Aligns lint behavior with the `scripts/generate-changelog.sh` regen flow. by @brettdavies in #13 - All public-facing markdown (`RELEASES.md`, `AGENTS.md`, `README.md`, `spec/README.md`, `CONTRIBUTING.md`) scrubbed of SHA-pin model vocabulary: pipeline diagram's "site re-pins to commit SHA" step, the post-merge "site re-pins via its own PR" step, the `protect-tags.json` / `install endpoints` claims that tags are pinned to install endpoints, and the spec-vendor "pinned ref" / "pinned `SPEC_REF`" / "current pin is recorded" vocabulary across all docs. The new model is plain `git clone` + `bin/check-update` for staleness; nothing pins to anything cross-repo. by @brettdavies in #11 ### Removed - `bundle/scripts/check-compliance.sh` and 24 `bundle/scripts/checks/check-*.sh` files (plus `_helpers.sh`). `anc check --output json` is the canonical replacement. by @brettdavies in #4 - `bundle/references/principles-deep-dive.md` (419-line hand-typed paraphrase of the spec; canonical text now lives at `spec/principles/`). - `.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/principle_proposal.md` (replaced by `bundle_proposal.md` with corrected routing). - `.shellcheckrc` (its three disables targeted the deleted bundle scripts; producer scripts pass shellcheck unmodified). ## Type of Change - [x] `chore`: Maintenance tasks (release engineering) - [x] `BREAKING CHANGE`: Install layout changes (no v0.1.0 consumers exist; see Breaking Changes section) ## Related Issues/Stories - Architecture: `docs/plans/2026-04-27-001-bootstrap-agentnative-skill-plan.md` — bootstrap plan (task #15: launch-eve cherry-pick + admin-bypass decision recorded `2026-04-28`). - Architecture: `docs/plans/2026-04-28-001-feat-update-check-mechanism-plan.md` — update-check mechanism plan (drove PR #8 + the SHA-pin removal across PR #11 / repo docs). - Cross-repo: `agentnative-cli` — `scripts/sync-spec.sh` is the documented mirror; lockstep modernization is being driven in a parallel session. - Cross-repo: `agentnative-site` — installs this skill via `https://anc.dev/skill`; the `install.json` SHA-pin advisory is being removed in that repo (separate PR there) per the update-check plan's downstream coordination. ## Testing - [x] Manual testing completed - [x] All tests passing (CI: markdownlint + shellcheck on every cherry-picked commit) **Test Summary:** - `markdownlint-cli2` clean across the cherry-pick chain (PostToolUse hook ran on every edit; CI re-verified each PR). - `shellcheck --severity=style scripts/sync-spec.sh bin/check-update`: clean. - `bash -n scripts/sync-spec.sh bin/check-update`: clean. - `bin/check-update` 40-test battery (PR #8): 40 pass / 0 fail (unit + integration + e2e + red-team). - `scripts/sync-spec.sh` remote-success path verified live: queried `https://github.com/brettdavies/agentnative.git`, resolved `v0.3.0`, shallow-cloned, vendored 7 principles + VERSION + CHANGELOG. Remote-fail-local-success path verified by setting bogus `SPEC_REMOTE_URL` (warning + fallback to `$HOME/dev/agentnative-spec`). Both-fail path verified with bogus URL + bogus `SPEC_ROOT` (hard error with both printed). - Vocabulary check: `rg` for `SHA-pin` / `commit SHA` / `source.commit` / `install.json` / `re-pin` / `SPEC_REF` / `pin` / `pinned` / `pinning` across shipping content (excluding `docs/plans/`, license boilerplate, changelogs, vendored `spec/principles/`): **zero** matches. - PR-body template alignment: parallel audit subagents reported `verified=true` for PRs #1–#11. ## Files Modified **Cherry-picked from dev (squash commits):** - `8be19e6` — feat(bundle): consumer-side update-check mechanism (U1+U2) [#8] - `34b1da3` — refactor!: flatten bundle/* to repo root for plain git-clone install [#9] - `4461806` — chore(spec): re-vendor spec/ to v0.3.0 + RELEASES spec-revendor section [#10] - `fb50d18` — chore(sync-spec): drop SHA-pin claims, modernize to remote-first vendoring [#11] - `e67523e` — chore(lint): exclude CHANGELOG.md from markdownlint [#13] (added during release prep to unblock MD013 on the rich generated CHANGELOG) **Direct-to-release-branch fixup commits (bootstrap window):** - `9f6e276` — chore(rulesets): drop `.github/rulesets/README.md` - `23e1a76` — docs(bundle): trim trailing platform comment on `cargo install` line **Curated release commit:** - `d66d5bd` — chore(release): v0.2.0 (VERSION bump + regenerated CHANGELOG.md) **Plus PRs #1–#7 cherry-picked earlier in the bootstrap window:** rulesets (#1), AGENTS/PR-template/RELEASES scaffold (#2), bundle restructure + cliff.toml (#3), spec vendoring + skill pivot (#4), dual licensing (#6), `/skill` endpoint rename (#7). ## Breaking Changes - [x] Breaking changes described below **Install layout (PR #4 + PR #9):** the skill bundle's directory shape went from a paraphrased pre-anc layout (v0.1.0) → `bundle/` subdirectory (PR #3) → flat root (PR #9). The flat root is the load-bearing final shape: `git clone --depth 1` lands `SKILL.md` at the install root where Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, and OpenCode auto-discover it. **No real-world migration impact:** v0.1.0 has zero installed consumers (the install endpoint at `https://anc.dev/skill` is gated by this very release). The breaking-change classification is for SemVer hygiene, not user-impacting. **Bundle surface contract (PR #4):** the skill no longer ships shell-script compliance checks (`bundle/scripts/check-compliance.sh` + 24 `check-*.sh` files). `anc check --output json` is the canonical replacement; downstream tools that scraped the old shell scripts must migrate to `anc`. ## Deployment Notes - [x] Deployment steps documented below **Pre-merge admin-bypass (one-time):** the `protect-main` ruleset requires `markdownlint`, `shellcheck`, and `guard-docs / check-forbidden-docs` as required status checks. The third comes from `guard-main-docs.yml`, which only exists on `dev` (it's part of this very release). For the FIRST release PR, GitHub evaluates `pull_request` workflows from `main` (the base), so the guard-docs check cannot run. Resolution: admin-bypass this single PR via the existing `bypass_actors` on `protect-main` (`actor_type: RepositoryRole, actor_id: 5, bypass_mode: always`). One-off; subsequent releases run cleanly. See bootstrap plan §15 (decision recorded `2026-04-28`). **Post-merge sequence (per RELEASES.md):** 1. Tag the squash commit on `main`: ```bash git checkout main && git pull git tag -a v0.2.0 -m "v0.2.0" git push origin v0.2.0 ``` 2. Create the GitHub Release with the v0.2.0 CHANGELOG section as notes: ```bash gh release create v0.2.0 --title "v0.2.0" \ --notes "$(awk '/^## \[0\.2\.0\]/{flag=1; next} /^## \[/{flag=0} flag' CHANGELOG.md)" ``` 3. Consumers detect the new release on their next `bin/check-update` run; no site-side coordination step (the SHA-pin model is gone, per #11). ## Checklist - [x] Code follows project conventions and style guidelines - [x] Commit messages follow [Conventional Commits](https://www.conventionalcommits.org/) - [x] Self-review of code completed - [x] Tests added/updated and passing (CI green on every cherry-picked commit) - [x] No new warnings or errors introduced - [x] Changes are backward compatible (or breaking changes documented in Breaking Changes section) ## Additional Context - Full v0.2.0 entry in [`CHANGELOG.md`](./CHANGELOG.md) (this section is a copy; CHANGELOG.md is canonical). - The PR-body audit run produced template-aligned bodies for all 11 merged PRs; CHANGELOG.md was regenerated from the audited bodies before this PR opened.

Bootstrap plan (2026-04-27-001): - Task #15 (v0.2.0 release) flipped to checked. Step 3a complete via PR #12 squash-merge to main 2026-04-29 ~16:38 PT (commit 2b10c84). Step 3b (tag + GitHub Release) still pending; commands documented in PR #12 body's Deployment Notes. - Added an "Executed scope (2026-04-29)" addendum capturing the three axes the launch-eve plan diverged on: (a) in-cherry-pick spec re-vendor was converted to a real PR (#10) so the v0.2.0 CHANGELOG carries a curated bullet for the spec bump; (b) two extra PRs added to launch-wave scope mid-execution — PR #11 (SHA-pin scrub + sync-spec.sh modernization) and PR #13 (CHANGELOG.md markdownlint exclusion); (c) the launch-eve admin-bypass concern was pessimistic — guard-docs check ran cleanly from PR head, no bypass needed. - Final cherry-pick chain table appended for the historical record. Update-check mechanism plan (2026-04-28-001) — first commit of this plan to dev: - U1 (bin/check-update script) flipped to done via PR #8. - U2 (SKILL.md preamble + bundle-doc pin-vocab drop) flipped to done via PR #8; broader pin-vocab scrub across RELEASES/AGENTS/README/ CONTRIBUTING/spec/README shipped via PR #11 (added mid-flight to launch-wave scope per U6). - U6 (retroactive scrub) flipped to done for skill scope: PR #11 handled the skill-side cleanup; bootstrap plan task #15 + central tracker (gstack file, separate edit) updated 2026-04-29. Site-side scrubs (U3-U5 + agentnative-site cross-repo-canonical-pointer.md) still pending in the user's parallel session. - U3-U5 remain unchecked — agentnative-site scope, parallel session. The central launch tracker (~/.gstack/projects/brettdavies-agentnative/brett-dev-design-show-hn- launch-inversion-20260427-144756.md) was updated in parallel to: - Mark step 3a done (PR #12 squash 2b10c84) and step 3b pending. - Drop SHA-pin re-pin claims from steps 4 + 5 + the launch-day timeline + the per-repo plan table + the dev-status block (per U6 scrub instructions). Replaced with references to bin/check-update (PR #8) and a note that source.commit is being removed from skill.json in agentnative-site U3 (parallel session). - Step 4 retains the install.json -> skill.json file-rename context from PR #44 since that's still in scope for the site cherry-pick. That tracker is not a git-repo file, so the edits land directly on disk; this commit only touches the two plan files in this repo.

Summary
CHANGELOG.mdis a generated artifact —scripts/generate-changelog.shwrites single-line bullets per PR, and richPR-body bullets routinely exceed the 120-char MD013 line-length limit. Wrapping those lines would conflict with the
generator on every regen.
Mirrors the existing exclusion for
spec/CHANGELOG.md(also generated / vendored). Same rationale: content is authoredelsewhere, this repo's lint rules don't apply at this layer.
