Adds an `agents/openai.yaml` beside each `SKILL.md` so the skills work in
Codex as well as Claude Code, without generated copies:
- `interface.display_name` + `interface.short_description` for the Codex
skill picker, hand-written for all 39 skills.
- `policy.allow_implicit_invocation: false` on the 22 user-invoked skills —
the Codex analog of `disable-model-invocation: true`, so Codex excludes
them from implicit invocation while explicit `$skill` still works.
- Document the dual-harness invocation model in `.agents/invocation.md`,
`CLAUDE.md`, and the promoted-bucket READMEs.
- Add `AGENTS.md` as a symlink to `CLAUDE.md` so Codex reads the same
instructions; note Codex as a `link-skills.sh` install target.
Slimmed-down rework of the approach prototyped in #522: keeps the essential
cross-harness metadata, drops the Ruby validator, the runtime-detector test,
per-skill `default_prompt`s, and the unrelated promotion changes.

Add a Claude Code plugin marketplace so the promoted skills can be
installed as a managed, read-only bundle (subscribe rather than fork),
alongside the existing skills.sh installer.
- Enrich .claude-plugin/plugin.json with marketplace metadata (version,
description, author, license, keywords); keep the curated promoted-only
skills array.
- Add .claude-plugin/marketplace.json making the repo its own
single-plugin marketplace (mattpocock-skills@mattpocock).
- README: document /plugin install alongside skills.sh, and the
subscribe-vs-fork tradeoff.
- CLAUDE.md: extend the promoted-set invariant to cover marketplace.json
and plugin.json/package.json version sync.
- ADR 0002: record why Claude ships now and a native Codex plugin is
deferred (Codex skills field is single-path + drops symlinks, which
can't express a curated subset of a bucketed repo without a restructure).
Verified: 'claude plugin validate . --strict' passes, and marketplace
add -> install resolves all 21 promoted skills at v1.2.0.

Ask Matt was missing five skills that now exist and are user-reachable:
tdd (the red-green engine implement drives), diagnosing-bugs (there was
no route for "something's broken"), domain-modeling and codebase-design
(the two vocabulary references), and grilling (the shared primitive).
- SKILL.md: add a "Something's broken" on-ramp for diagnosing-bugs, a
"Vocabulary underneath" section for domain-modeling/codebase-design,
weave tdd into the main flow, flesh out prototype, broaden the
description from "user-invoked skills" to "the skills".
- docs/engineering/ask-matt.md: re-sync the framing to match.
- CLAUDE.md: add a maintenance rule so any future skill change triggers
an Ask Matt re-check, beside the existing docs-page re-sync rule.

misc/ skills are no longer installable via the plugin or listed in the
top-level README — they join personal/ as kept-but-unshipped. Only
engineering/ and productivity/ are promoted now.
- Drop the Misc section from the top-level README.
- Reclassify misc/ as non-promoted in CLAUDE.md (README/plugin rule,
bucket-README grouping rule, docs-page rule) and the writing-docs guide.
- Note the non-promoted status in the misc bucket README.
plugin.json already omitted misc, so no manifest change was needed.
No SKILL.md context pointer referenced a misc skill, so nothing else
had to move.

misc/ skills are niche — they stay promoted (README + plugin manifest,
so they're installable) but no longer get a public aihero.dev docs
page. Remove the four misc pages and decouple the docs rule from the
promotion rule in CLAUDE.md and the writing-docs guide.

Reframe docs pages around cognitive-load relief: most skills are
user-invoked, so the human is the index that must remember when to
reach for each one. Each page's job is to make one skill memorable
and situate it in the system.
Template changes (.agents/writing-docs.md):
- Quickstart block: install + `npx skills update`, install-first
- New `## When to reach for it` (invocation mode + trigger boundary)
- New optional `## Prerequisites` (workspace/state, prior setup, tooling)
- Free-form middle with one firm rule: surface the leading word
(also an observability signal in the agent's output)
- `## Where it fits`: role-based, absorbs "Pairs well with", links ask-matt
- No H1; every cross-link absolute
Nest docs under bucket folders (docs/<bucket>/<name>.md); the
published URL stays skills-<name> regardless. Re-sync to-prd as the
worked exemplar.

Relocate this repo's ADRs and invocation.md from docs/ to .agents/,
and update the CLAUDE.md reference.
