v7.16.3

Note

7.16.3 is available on 🐍 PyPI and 🐙 GitHub.

• lint-repo now warns when a seeded tool config (ruff, pytest, coverage, mypy, mdformat) lacks an entry its bundled template gained after the seeding.
• lint-repo now warns when a [tool.lychee] exclude entry is the bare form of one the bundled template has since anchored, which an ongoing sync grafts back beside its own replacement.
• update-docs now lists each generated API page in its parent toctree, so a new module no longer needs a hand edit.
• scan-virustotal gains --download and --repo, fetching the tag's versioned binaries once its release lists them.
• The bundled [tool.repomatic.gitignore] extra-content default now ignores .wrangler/, the local state wrangler writes in a checkout.
• The bundled lychee.toml now excludes medium.com, which returns 403 to anonymous crawlers but serves the full article to a browser.
• The bundled awesome-template contributing guide and awesome-triage skill now separate a crawler-blocked 403, which keeps its live URL behind a [tool.lychee] exclude, from a 404, which gets archived.
• The bundled sphinx-docs agent now warns that an incremental build's warning count covers only the pages it re-read.
• The bundled sphinx-docs agent and sphinx-docs-sync skill now place developer setup on the contributing page, and flag a copy kept in readme.md or claude.md.
• The bundled sphinx-docs agent now compares two builds only under equal dependency groups, and requires a fully qualified reference in a base-class docstring.
• The bundled qa-engineer agent now moves a CLAUDE.md rule about one function, test or page beside that code.
• The bundled repomatic-ship skill now names the transient empty run page a watcher must poll through rather than read as a finished suite.
• The bundled repomatic-ship skill now classifies a version derived from a checked-in spec, whose bump breaks the recipe invoking it, and points a reading agent at git show HEAD:<path> instead of git stash.
• The bundled repomatic-ship skill now re-reads the tree after the last gate command, which can re-create a mutation already reverted.
• The bundled repomatic-ship skill now builds the docs with --fresh-env, so a reference broken in an unchanged page still surfaces.
• The bundled file-bug-report skill now carries the evidence rules for an upstream report and the numbering behind a GitHub Actions log anchor.
• The bundled babysit-ci skill now notes that gh run rerun --failed also re-runs the jobs skipped behind a failed or cancelled dependency.
• Generated workflows, the lint-changelog annotations and the bundled typos, uv and zizmor configurations now cite the published documentation in place of claude.md, which downstream repositories no longer receive.
• Raise the click-extra floor to 9.3.
• Fix scan-virustotal failing when the freshly published release still lists no asset, which skipped the whole scan for that version.
• Fix repomatic run --verify exiting 0 when it had no path to verify, like a bare typos run.
• The bundled 🤖 ci content rules no longer match .github, which pre-labelled every issue filed through an awesome list's own new-link form.
• Fix the bundled repomatic-audit skill claiming init refreshes a seeded mypy, pytest or coverage section, which it never revisits.
• Fix the bundled repomatic-ship skill claiming CI resolves the project's dependencies fresh, when its jobs install from uv.lock.
• Fix the bundled sphinx-docs agent pointing a rule at a claude.md section, which downstream repositories do not receive.
• The metrics and metric_chart docstrings now state that a star gained on a repository's creation day replaces its created anchor, so not every series carries one.
• The plugin page now warns that an account-enabled plugin also loads in the CLI, so pairing it with init skills registers every skill twice.
• The plugin page now names the Desktop panel that takes the archive, the supported marketplace hosts, and where the off-by-default Sync automatically switch lives.
• The plugin page now records that the CLI compares plugin.json rather than the catalog entry to detect an update, and that the Desktop app updates with no version change, both measured.
• The contributing page now carries the conventions for developing repomatic itself: operation naming and contracts, and the rules for bundled agents and skills.
• The workflows page now explains the over-long entry and empty release warnings that the lint-changelog annotations link to.
• Fix the plugin page's file-install command, which named an agents component instead of subagents.
• Fix stale statements on the workflows, security, test matrix, operation contracts and upstream development pages.
