// lib/skills/skill-frontmatter.mjs // Frontmatter reader for skill, command and agent files: the fields the skill // workshop needs, with the line each one is on and the YAML traps it hits. // // Why not lib/util/frontmatter.mjs: that parser deliberately rejects // multi-line strings, and Voyage's agents write `description: |`. This reader // takes plain, quoted and block-scalar (`|`, `>`, with `-`/`+`) values, flow // lists, and indented lists or maps (kept as raw text). It is not a YAML // parser: it reads the subset a SKILL.md uses and reports what would break a // real one. Claude Code loads a skill whose YAML does not parse "with no // fields set", so the description is gone and the skill cannot match; a trap // here is an error, not a style note. const KEY_RE = /^([A-Za-z0-9_-]+):(.*)$/; const BLOCK_RE = /^([|>])([+-]?)\s*$/; /** * Split a file into its frontmatter lines and body. * @returns {{ ok: boolean, fmLines: string[], body: string, bodyStartLine: number }} */ export function splitFile(text) { const src = String(text).replace(/^/, ''); const lines = src.split(/\r?\n/); if (lines[0] !== '---') return { ok: false, fmLines: [], body: src, bodyStartLine: 1 }; const end = lines.indexOf('---', 1); if (end < 0) return { ok: false, fmLines: [], body: src, bodyStartLine: 1 }; return { ok: true, fmLines: lines.slice(1, end), body: lines.slice(end + 1).join('\n'), bodyStartLine: end + 2 }; } /** The YAML traps in one plain (unquoted, single-line) scalar value. */ export function plainScalarHazards(value) { const out = []; if (/:\s/.test(value) || /:$/.test(value)) out.push('unquoted ": " (YAML reads a mapping and the line fails)'); if (/\s#/.test(value)) out.push('" #" starts a YAML comment: the rest of the value is cut'); if (/^[`@%*&!|>,?{]/.test(value)) out.push(`a value may not start with "${value[0]}" unquoted`); if (/^\[/.test(value) && !/\]$/.test(value)) out.push('an unclosed flow list'); if (/^-\s/.test(value)) out.push('"- " at the start reads as a list item'); return out; } function unquote(v) { if (v.startsWith('"')) { if (v.length < 2 || !v.endsWith('"') || v.endsWith('\\"')) return { error: 'unclosed double quote' }; try { return { value: JSON.parse(v) }; } catch { return { error: 'bad escape in a double-quoted value' }; } } if (v.startsWith("'")) { if (v.length < 2 || !v.endsWith("'")) return { error: 'unclosed single quote' }; return { value: v.slice(1, -1).replace(/''/g, "'") }; } return null; } function blockValue(lines, style, chomp) { const nonBlank = lines.filter((l) => l.trim() !== ''); const indent = nonBlank.length ?
