🎯 Changes

A malformed npm workspace root could disappear during discovery, allowing a nested app to lose inherited restrictions. The shipped meta-skills also failed Intent's own validator.

This PR closes those release-readiness gaps together:

  • Workspace policy: reuse the strict policy-manifest reader during workspace discovery. Invalid or unreadable ancestor manifests fail with the file path. The first workspace declaration or Git checkout/worktree boundary ends ancestor discovery, after inspecting that directory. Package ownership and explicit targets respect the same Git boundary. Without an independent boundary, malformed ancestors fail closed even for an intended standalone app. Nested Git repositories are treated as separate projects.
  • Meta-skills: correct names and string metadata while retaining the existing command names. Move deep-reading procedures, artifact schemas, writing templates, and update instructions into four referenced files. intent meta <name> reuses the existing Markdown destination resolver so emitted reference paths work from the caller's directory. The real validator replaces the separate, weaker meta-skill checks.
  • Package verification: pack and extract the built package, verify every meta resource's presence and bytes, validate the extracted skills, and exercise meta/scaffold, confirmed and canceled first installs, repeat installation, list, load, and noninteractive refusal.
  • Vitest 5 compatibility: rename the ignored root vitest.workspace.js to vitest.config.js, retaining the package project configuration and removing the obsolete TypeScript include. Root --project intent now discovers the package instead of failing with No projects matched the filter "intent". Ignore Vitest 5's default .vitest report directory. This follows the project configuration guide and artifact migration notes.
  • CodSpeed compatibility: keep unit/integration tests on Vitest 5.0.0 and pin only @benchmarks/intent to Vitest 4.1.8. The current @codspeed/vitest-plugin@5.7.1 supports Vitest 3/4 and imports runner APIs removed in v5. Allow exactly vitest@4.1.8 in Sherif's version-consistency check. Benchmark workloads and timing budgets are unchanged.

Fixes #233.
Fixes #240.

✅ Checklist

  • I have followed the steps in the Contributing guide.
  • I have tested this code locally with pnpm test (test:ci).

Verified after integrating main's permission-review change, with a frozen-lockfile install:

  • 670 unit tests and 84 integration tests passed on Vitest 5.0.0.
  • Type checks, ESLint, build, Knip, Sherif, and documentation-link checks passed. ESLint reports eight existing require-await warnings.
  • Reproduced the malformed-ancestor failures and nine meta-validation errors before fixing them. Regression coverage includes core and CLI list/load/install paths, npm and pnpm workspace roots, nested Git checkouts/worktrees, missing package manifests, and explicit target paths.
  • All six relative meta-document links resolve. After the final reference-template fence correction, the seven meta and packed-artifact checks passed again.
  • git diff --check passed.
  • After the root configuration fix, pnpm exec vitest run --project intent passed all 728 tests across the same 37 files. Root and eval TypeScript checks, Knip, configuration ESLint, formatting, and report-directory ignore checks passed.
  • Saved-transcript evals passed: 22 tests, with five live cases skipped. All three scored cases retained their scores and harness metadata in JSON, and the summary command consumed the report successfully.
  • Reproduced all five failing benchmark suites on Vitest 5. The original WITH_INSTRUMENTATION=1 pnpm exec nx run @benchmarks/intent:test:perf command now completes all eight benchmarks across five files locally on Vitest 4.1.8. CodSpeed's analysis runner imports successfully; local execution does not provide Linux simulation measurements.
  • CodSpeed CI run 33942900763 executed all five suites, completed the Nx benchmark target successfully, and uploaded performance data. Verified the underlying step log, not just the permissive job status.
  • Updated the exact CLI output expectation for the anchored documentation-policy link; the assertion still compares the complete rendered skill.

PR #257's Vitest 5 benchmark syntax migration needs to be reconciled with this CodSpeed compatibility pin before that PR lands. Its command-performance changes are separate from this fix.

The artifact test reuses installed runtime dependencies and the existing prompt seam; it does not download dependencies or automate terminal keystrokes. GitHub-hosted execution and the eventual npm publication are not claimed by the local checks.

🚀 Release Impact

  • This change affects published code, and I have generated two patch changesets.
  • This change is docs/CI/dev-only (no release).

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change restructures shipped meta-skills, moves detailed procedures into references, resolves relative Markdown links, enforces workspace and Git boundaries, and adds packaged-release, policy, CLI review, and validation coverage.

Changes

Meta-skill validation and authoring

Layer / File(s) Summary
Meta-skill metadata and validation
packages/intent/meta/*/SKILL.md, packages/intent/tests/skills.test.ts, .changeset/valid-release-skills.md
Renames meta-skills, normalizes metadata, updates internal references, and validates the shipped skill set through the Intent validator.
Domain discovery and skill-generation procedures
packages/intent/meta/domain-discovery/references/*, packages/intent/meta/tree-generator/references/*
Moves deep-read, artifact, writing, and update procedures into dedicated reference files with defined schemas and workflows.

Markdown resolution and packaged release

Layer / File(s) Summary
Named meta-skill rendering
packages/intent/src/commands/meta.ts, docs/cli/intent-meta.md
The meta command rewrites relative Markdown destinations before printing a named skill.
Packed package verification
packages/intent/tests/integration/packed-release.test.ts
Packs and extracts the package, verifies meta resources, and exercises CLI commands against the extracted package.

Workspace policy boundaries

Layer / File(s) Summary
Workspace and Git ancestry
packages/intent/src/core/project-context.ts, packages/intent/src/setup/workspace-patterns.ts
Workspace discovery reads ancestor manifests before caching results and stops at .git boundaries. Target ancestry determines project ownership.
Malformed-manifest and boundary coverage
packages/intent/tests/core.test.ts, packages/intent/tests/project-context.test.ts, packages/intent/tests/integration/source-policy-surfaces.test.ts, docs/concepts/trust-model.md, .changeset/workspace-policy-boundary.md
Tests and documentation cover malformed ancestors, npm and pnpm workspaces, nested Git repositories, and policy surfaces that must fail closed.

CLI review and test configuration

Layer / File(s) Summary
Interactive review behavior
packages/intent/tests/cli.test.ts
Tests cover permission reuse, invalid flag combinations, non-TTY rejection, cancellation, decline, dry-run behavior, and updated guidance.
Vitest repository configuration
vitest.config.js, tsconfig.json, .gitignore
The root Vitest configuration targets the Intent project, excludes the workspace config from TypeScript inclusion, and ignores Vitest output.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to 6d188

This updates workspace policy boundaries, packaged meta-skill handling, and release validation coverage. No concrete current-head issue remains that blocks merging.
