Kjell Tore Guttormsen 9288d34f50 feat(ultraplan-local): v2.3.1 — qualified slug convention for cc-architect-catalog
Resolves v2.3.0 dogfood collision: skill-factory produced a
specialized hooks-pattern.md draft that would have overwritten the
generic seed. Qualified slugs let one feature host multiple named
patterns at different abstraction levels.

Slug convention: <cc_feature>[-<qualifier>]-<layer>.md. Unqualified =
canonical baseline. Qualified = sub-pattern (e.g., hooks-observability-
pattern.md) that does not displace the baseline.

Changes:
- SKILL.md: slug convention section, coverage-table qualified column,
  matcher logic for N patterns per feature, modification rules cover
  qualified-vs-canonical choice and collision handling.
- feature-matcher: catalog map is cc_feature -> {layer -> [skills]};
  selection rules (baseline by default, qualified when justified,
  multi-skill when non-overlapping); supporting_skill accepts list.
- gap-identifier: adds pattern_count[cc_feature] to coverage audit.
- architecture-critic: supporting-skill verification — every cited
  skill name must exist in the catalog (blocker severity).
- First qualified skill: hooks-observability-pattern.md (promoted from
  .drafts/, source ai-psychosis/README.md, ngram-overlap 0.01).
- Version bump 2.3.0 -> 2.3.1 across plugin.json, badges, table, root
  CLAUDE.md, CHANGELOG.

Non-breaking: existing unqualified slugs keep working, no cc_feature
taxonomy changes, hallucination gate unchanged.

# CC Architect Catalog — Manifest
This file is the catalog index consumed by the `feature-matcher` and
`gap-identifier` agents inside `/ultra-cc-architect-local`. It is NOT
intended to be auto-invoked by Claude Code's skill system — the
description above exists only so the skill loader has something to
display if it indexes this directory.
## Purpose
The catalog enumerates which Claude Code features the architect command
can reason about, and at which layer of abstraction. Each feature gets
one or more skill files in this directory. A skill is a self-contained
note about *one* feature at *one* layer.
## Layers (frontmatter `layer` field)
| Layer | Purpose | Kilde |
|-------|---------|-------|
| `reference` | Facts, API, syntax. What the feature *is*. | CC changelog, official docs |
| `pattern` | When and how to use it. Typical shapes, pitfalls. | Synthesized from practice |
| `decision` | Operational decision tree across features. | Synthesized. (No seeds yet.) |
Lag representeres som frontmatter-felt, ikke mappestruktur. Rationale:
one feature can have skills at multiple layers without relocation, and
future skill-factory output can target a specific layer without moving
files.
## Frontmatter contract (per skill file)
Every skill file in this directory MUST have this frontmatter. The
fields are load-bearing for the architect command.
```yaml
---
name: <skill-id> # unique, kebab-case
description: <one-line matcher hint> # used by feature-matcher
layer: reference | pattern | decision
cc_feature: <feature-id> # see table below
source: <URL> # canonical upstream source
concept: <short phrase> # 36 word concept handle
last_verified: <YYYY-MM-DD> # when a human last checked against upstream
ngram_overlap_score: null # reserved for skill-factory IP-hygiene
review_status: approved | pending | auto-merged
---
```
`ngram_overlap_score` is reserved. This command respects it (will flag
non-null values > threshold) but does not compute it. Skill-factory (a
separate later process) populates that field.
`review_status: approved` is the default for seeds (approved by
construction — handwritten, no third-party text copied). Future
skill-factory output will start as `pending` (channel 2) or
`auto-merged` (channel 1).
## Canonical `cc_feature` values
| Value | Coverage |
|-------|----------|
| `hooks` | Event hooks (UserPromptSubmit, PreToolUse, PostToolUse, Stop, Notification, SessionStart, etc.) |
| `subagents` | Task-tool sub-agents, delegation patterns |
| `skills` | Claude Code skill system (not Agent SDK skills) |
| `output-styles` | Output style configuration |
| `mcp` | Model Context Protocol servers and tools |
| `plan-mode` | Built-in plan mode |
| `worktrees` | Git worktree integration |
| `background-agents` | `run_in_background`, Monitor, long-running agents |
| `meta` | This manifest only — not a real feature |
If a future skill covers a feature not in this list, add the row above
and surface the extension in the relevant CHANGELOG entry.
## Slug convention
Skill filenames follow this pattern:
```
<cc_feature>[-<qualifier>]-<layer>.md
```
- **Unqualified slug** (`<feature>-<layer>.md`) — the baseline/canonical
entry for that (feature, layer) pair. One per pair. Example:
`hooks-pattern.md` = generic hook shapes and pitfalls.
- **Qualified slug** (`<feature>-<qualifier>-<layer>.md`) — a
specialized variant covering one specific sub-pattern or use-case.
Zero-or-more per pair. Example: `hooks-observability-pattern.md` =
progressive-alert observability pattern specifically.
Qualifiers exist because one CC feature can support multiple
non-overlapping patterns at different abstraction levels. Forcing
everything into a single `<feature>-<layer>.md` either bloats the
canonical entry or loses useful specialization. Qualified slugs let the
catalog grow with concrete, named patterns without displacing the
baseline.
`feature-matcher` treats all skills with the same `cc_feature` + `layer`
as candidates and picks the most relevant to the brief (or proposes
several if they cover different aspects). See "How `feature-matcher`
uses this file" below.
## Current seed coverage (v2.3.0 — see .drafts/ for skill-factory output)
| Feature | reference | pattern | qualified patterns | decision |
|---------|-----------|---------|--------------------|----------|
| hooks | hooks-reference | hooks-pattern | hooks-observability-pattern | — |
| subagents | subagents-reference | subagents-pattern | — | — |
| skills | skills-reference | — | — | — |
| output-styles | output-styles-reference | — | — | — |
| mcp | mcp-reference | — | — | — |
| plan-mode | plan-mode-reference | — | — | — |
| worktrees | worktrees-reference | — | — | — |
| background-agents | background-agents-reference | — | — | — |
Total: 11 seed skills, 8 features, 2 layers. Decision-layer is
intentionally empty — decisions cross features and require broader
synthesis than a single seed pass can provide. Skill-factory populates
decision-layer later.
## How `feature-matcher` uses this file
1. Read this file to learn the `cc_feature` taxonomy and slug convention.
2. Glob the directory for `*.md` files (excluding SKILL.md).
3. Parse each skill's frontmatter.
4. For each feature mentioned in the brief or research, match against
`cc_feature` field. Build the candidate set per feature, grouped by
layer. Selection rules:
- **Layer preference:** prefer `pattern` over `reference` when both
exist (pattern is richer).
- **Multiple patterns per feature:** when two or more pattern-layer
skills share the same `cc_feature`, read each `description` and
pick the one(s) most relevant to the brief. If two cover
non-overlapping aspects that both apply, propose both with clear
rationale. Prefer the unqualified baseline (`<feature>-pattern.md`)
when the brief does not specifically justify a qualified variant.
- **Be explicit:** name the chosen skill in `supporting_skill` so
`architecture-critic` can verify the match.
5. When no skill exists for a mentioned feature, fall back to the
hardcoded minimum-list inside the `feature-matcher` prompt and mark
the gap in stats (`fallback_used: true`).
## How `gap-identifier` uses this file
1. Collect every feature referenced in `feature-matcher`'s output.
2. For each feature, check whether the catalog has at least one skill at
each expected layer (reference always; pattern when complexity
warrants; decision for cross-feature choices).
3. Emit a gap entry for every missing (feature × layer) pair.
4. Label with `skill-layer:<layer>` and `cc-feature:<feature>`.
## Non-goals for this file
- No skill-factory logic. That is a separate later process.
- No auto-discovery of new CC features.
- No n-gram computation.
- No triggering Claude Code auto-invocation (description deliberately
says "not invoked directly").
## Modification rules
- **Adding a canonical skill:** create `<feature>-<layer>.md` with the
frontmatter contract above. Bump the coverage table in this file.
- **Adding a qualified pattern skill:** create
`<feature>-<qualifier>-<layer>.md` when the new pattern covers a
distinct sub-case that does not belong in the unqualified baseline.
The qualifier MUST be kebab-case and descriptive (e.g.,
`observability`, `migration`, `multi-tenant`). Add it to the
"qualified patterns" column in the coverage table.
- **Choosing qualified vs. canonical:** if no unqualified skill exists
yet for a `(feature, layer)` pair, the new skill SHOULD be the
unqualified baseline — don't ship a qualified skill without a
canonical one, because `feature-matcher` prefers baseline when the
brief has no specific justification for a variant.
- **Renaming `cc_feature` values:** update both this file AND every
skill using the old value in the same commit.
- **Removing a skill:** document in CHANGELOG under the version that
drops it.
- **Slug collision:** two skills with the same slug are a hard error.
Skill-factory (`/ultra-skill-author-local`) must refuse to promote a
draft that would overwrite an approved skill. Collision is resolved
either by qualifying the new slug or by revising the baseline.
