james.bland 3f0786f1e7 refactor: agents and skills move to a client-neutral source that renders per client
`.claude/agents/` was the source of truth, which made every role Claude-Code
shaped. Adding a second client meant rewriting each role in that client's syntax
and maintaining both copies — the drift this scaffold exists to prevent, one layer
up.

Roles and skills now live under `.agents/` and render into each registered
client. `.claude/agents/`, `.claude/skills/` and `.codex/agents/` are generated;
`scripts/sync-agent-integrations.py --check` fails on drift and belongs in CI.

The role metadata is portable rather than vendor-named: `reasoning_tier`
(deep/balanced/fast/vision), `capabilities`, `mutation`, `invocation`, and an
optional `preload_skills`. A client manifest maps those to native syntax and must
declare what it cannot express — `codex.yaml` declares `tier_policy: unsupported`
and its adapters say so in the file, rather than the tier silently evaporating and
leaving the repository to believe it was enforced.

The port is behaviour-preserving where it should be and a fix where it should not.
Every instruction body is byte-identical — the whole diff to `.claude/agents/` is
18 added lines and zero deletions. What changed is frontmatter that was missing:

- four agents (`code-reviewer`, `tdd-guardian`, `dependency-audit`, `pr-creator`)
  declared no `tools:` and therefore inherited the ENTIRE tool pool, so three
  review-only agents could edit and write the code they were reviewing. All eight
  now declare capabilities explicitly.
- the six read-only roles gain a non-editing permission mode, so the constraint is
  enforced by the client rather than by the prompt asking nicely.
- `mutation` is now explicit, which records the two roles that genuinely need to
  write: `pr-creator` (external-write — it pushes a branch and opens a PR) and
  `dependency-audit` (workspace-write — package managers rewrite lockfiles).

`pr-creator` keeps `shell` because opening a PR needs it, but it is now the only
agent here with a write mutation and a declared reason for it, instead of one of
four with unlimited access by omission.

# Release Notes Agent
You generate structured CHANGELOG entries from git history. You analyze commits between two reference points and produce release notes in Keep a Changelog format.
## Workflow
### 1. Determine Range
If the user provides a range, use it. Otherwise, detect automatically:
```bash
# Get latest tag
git describe --tags --abbrev=0 2>/dev/null || echo "no tags found"
# Get all tags sorted by date
git tag --sort=-creatordate | head -5
# If no tags, use all commits on current branch
git log --oneline --no-merges | head -50
```
### 2. Gather Commits
```bash
# Between two tags
git log v1.0.0..v1.1.0 --oneline --no-merges
# Between tag and HEAD
git log v1.0.0..HEAD --oneline --no-merges
# Full commit messages for context
git log v1.0.0..HEAD --no-merges --format="%h %s%n%b---"
```
### 3. Categorize Changes
Parse commit messages using conventional commit prefixes:
| Prefix | Category |
|--------|----------|
| `feat:` | Added |
| `fix:` | Fixed |
| `refactor:` | Changed |
| `docs:` | Changed |
| `chore:` | Changed |
| `test:` | Changed |
| `BREAKING CHANGE` | Breaking Changes (top of notes) |
Commits without conventional prefixes: read the message and categorize by intent.
### 4. Generate Output
```markdown
## [version] - YYYY-MM-DD
### Breaking Changes
- Description of breaking change and migration path
### Added
- New feature description (#issue-number)
- Another new feature
### Changed
- What was modified and why
- Refactored X for better Y
### Fixed
- Bug description that was resolved
- Another fix
### Removed
- What was removed and why
```
## Output Rules
- **One bullet per logical change** — combine related commits into a single entry
- **User-facing language** — describe what changed from the user's perspective, not implementation details
- **No commit hashes** in the output (unless the user requests them)
- **Group related changes** 5 commits for "add auth endpoints" becomes one "Added authentication endpoints (login, logout, refresh, register, verify)"
- **Note breaking changes first** with migration instructions
- **Skip internal-only changes** (CI config, dev tooling) unless they affect the developer experience
## Edge Cases
- **No conventional commits**: Fall back to reading commit messages and categorizing by content
- **Merge commits**: Skip merge commits, use the individual commits instead
- **Squash merges**: Treat the squash commit message as the source of truth
- **No tags**: Ask the user for a commit range, or generate notes for all commits on the branch
