Research direction

Start by reviewing the claude-plugin tree at commit 3c2c17157a03da65ff8af5d60300e1e10957594c and the referenced marketplace manifest entry. Check the root plugin.json, the retained .claude-plugin/plugin.json, the pinned version and SHA, and the repository test that compares the manifests. Done means the spec-compliant install and version checks pass without breaking the existing Claude Code manifest.

Receipt-bound completion rail: SessionStart injects the completion contract, Stop runs the cached fast gate advisory-only, and PreToolUse denies a Bash commit/push/PR boundary command missing its matching receipt.

Additional notes for reviewers

Listed in the Hermes Labs Copilot marketplace manifest (https://github.com/hermes-labs-ai/copilot-plugins/blob/main/.claude-plugin/marketplace.json) as a git-subdir source at path claude-plugin, pinned to release tag v0.1.7 (the tag's commit SHA is provided above, and the manifest pins the same SHA).

Resubmitting after fixing the cause of the earlier intake failure. The previous review of v0.1.5 failed the install smoke test and version match because the repository shipped only claude-plugin/.claude-plugin/plugin.json, which is the Claude Code convention and is not one of the locations the Agent Plugins 1.0.0 specification resolves. v0.1.7 adds a spec-compliant manifest at the plugin root, claude-plugin/plugin.json, carrying the required $schema, name, version and description. The Claude Code manifest under .claude-plugin/ is retained unchanged so existing Claude Code behavior is preserved, and a repository test keeps the two manifests from drifting.

Submitted by the plugin's own maintainer (Hermes Labs).
