feat: add sync-skills skill mirror (#6)
* docs: add Maya plugin e2e skill * fix: consolidate AGENTS instructions * docs: configure scoped 1password service account * docs: update Hermes and Obsidian workflows * docs: harden maintainer worker setup * feat: add sync-skills skill mirror Adapt upstream steipete/agent-scripts sync-skills to Bram's layout: flat per-skill symlinks for both ~/.claude/skills and ~/.codex/skills instead of upstream's whole-root Codex link, canonicalized targets, --dry-run and --no-instructions flags, AGENT_SCRIPTS_DIR/MANAGER_SKILLS_DIR overrides. Replaces the hand-maintained Codex symlink list in the README. Extends the CI shell syntax check to scripts/.

# Changelog
66

7+
## 2026-07-22 — Skill Mirror Sync
8+
- Added `scripts/sync-skills`, adapted from upstream, so Claude Code and Codex share one canonical per-skill mirror across agent-scripts, optional manager skills, and codex-local extras.
9+
- Kept Bram's documented flat per-skill layout for both roots instead of upstream's whole-root Codex symlink, added `--dry-run`/`--no-instructions` and path overrides, and canonicalized targets so repo-owned skills resolve to their own repo.
10+
- First run pruned nine broken links from a removed skill experiment and published ~20 skills that were present in `skills/` but missing from `~/.claude/skills`.
11+
712
## 2026-07-13 — Bram Maintainer Loop v2
813
- Added a Peter-style cross-repository maintainer loop for `BramVR`, with one persistent Codex app task per repository, a 30-repository concurrency target, autonomous dependency upgrades, serialized public mutations, live proof, autoreview, and verified release proposals.

Global discovery is built by `scripts/sync-skills` (idempotent; run on every Mac after cloning or adding skills):
32+
33+
```bash
34+
scripts/sync-skills --dry-run # preview
35+
scripts/sync-skills # apply
36+
```
37+
38+
It writes one flat per-skill symlink per root, so both agents see the same set:
39+
- `~/.claude/skills/<name> -> <canonical skill dir>`
40+
- `~/.codex/skills/<name> -> <canonical skill dir>`
41+
42+
Sources, in collision priority order: `agent-scripts/skills` > `~/Projects/manager/skills` (if present) > codex-local extras already living in `~/.codex/skills`. Repo-owned skills resolve to their own repo, e.g. `gog -> ~/Projects/gogcli/.agents/skills/gog`.
43+
44+
Broken links are pruned always; healthy links into a managed root are pruned only when the skill is gone. Foreign links you made by hand are left alone.
45+
46+
Do not replace this with a broad `~/.codex/skills -> ~/Projects/agent-scripts/skills` symlink unless intentionally changing Bram's setup; Claude Code only scans one level deep, so the flat mirror is what makes a skill discoverable.

Never interrupt, archive, rename, duplicate, or replace a worker without first reading its current state. For a suspected duplicate, read both threads; if either has unique progress, edits, or an active turn, leave it alone and ask Bram before changing thread state.

### Worker Permission Integrity
173+
174+
- Treat the worker's configured access as part of its contract. Repository workers configured for full access must run with `approval_policy=never` and a disabled/full-access permission profile.
175+
- Context compaction, background continuation, handoff, or task-setting changes can drift a running turn back to managed `workspace-write/on-request` even while the UI still says Full access. When an ordinary edit or repository command unexpectedly requests approval, inspect the latest worker turn/rollout permission context before calling it a Bram blocker.
176+
- For verified permission drift, root restores Full access in the existing worker task and approves the already-scoped pending action itself. Prefer the durable task/path option when the prompt offers one. Never ask Bram to approve ordinary edits, tests, commits, pushes, or CI operations already covered by loop authority.
177+
- Auto-restoration applies only to the assigned repository/worktree and already-authorized GitHub workflow. Never auto-approve secrets, destructive unique-work handling, releases, external-system mutations, or a broader path than the worker owns.
178+
- After restoration, confirm the worker emitted a new execution step and recheck permission integrity after its next compaction. If the platform repeatedly resets the same active turn, preserve the worker's unique state, finish the current safe operation through root-controlled approval, and move the task to a proper project-scoped worktree at its next clean pushed handoff boundary.

### Active Waits

- Keep the project turn active until its work reaches a terminal state. Do not emit a final answer or stop merely because CI, a runner, review, mergeability, deployment, an auth prompt, or a long command is pending.
