tl;dr

The installer that assembles shared agent skills was one 4,066-line script. This change starts breaking it into topic files and moves the printing and name-checking parts out first. Every command behaves and prints exactly as before, so nothing changes for anyone using it.

The Problem

  • scripts/link-skills.sh was 4,066 lines, far past the 500-line limit AGENTS.md sets for shell files.
  • The size baseline froze that number instead of lowering it, so each new function made the monolith worse.

The Solution

  • Add scripts/lib/link-skills/ and source output.sh (the report levels, the refusal, the hook line, the help text) and names.sh (name and case rules) by absolute path from an explicit ordered list.
  • Add a boot section holding script_abs_path, resolve_symlink_path and boot_fail; boot_fail names a module that will not load and exits 0 in hook mode, 2 otherwise. It reads the command by main's own rule, so an option operand named hook is not mistaken for a hook run.
  • Split usage into usage_head, usage_options and usage_notes to fit the 50-line function limit. The help text is byte-identical to main.
  • Harness fixtures install the script together with its module directory through the new fixtures_install_script. The help case compares the three spellings as files, so a trailing-newline difference cannot slip past a command substitution.
  • The entry point drops to 3,951 lines and the baseline row drops with it; AGENTS.md and README.md record the new layout.

Validation

Head b92dc6d. Gates: harness under bash 5.3.15 145 passed and under /bin/bash 3.2.57 145 passed, 0 failed, 0 skipped on both; shellcheck over all 33 tracked .sh files clean; SHELL_SIZE_BASE=origin/main pnpm check:shell ok; node scripts/validate-skills.mjs 3 skills; pnpm test:scripts 385 passed; trunk fmt on the three changed files, no issues.
Review round 1 closed: the boot-command finding and the help-output comparison are fixed at this head; the two module-prefix findings are deferred below.
Not proven: no harness case exercises a failed module load, so boot_fail is verified by hand against a staged install with output.sh removed, under both interpreters.

Deferrals

  • The module prefix rule (output_, names_, leading _ for private helpers) is not applied here. It lands in the final layer of this stack, Apply the module prefix rule to the link-skills modules #37, which already carries those names. Renaming in this layer would have to be replayed through six child branches and would turn every moved call site into a rebase conflict.
  • Merge only the bottom layer. This is it; later layers move the remaining sections out.

Ship Checklist

  • PR title is a Conventional Commits header, type: summary or type(scope): summary, as commitlint.config.mjs enforces for commits
  • Performed a self-review of my own changes
  • node scripts/validate-skills.mjs and the affected test suites pass
  • Nothing in the diff breaks the public-readership rules in AGENTS.md
  • Body is about 250 words, 400 at most, excluding this checklist

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added comprehensive help output covering commands, options, defaults, validation rules, environment variables, hook behavior, and exit codes.
    • Added validation for manifest names and fields, including filesystem-aware name comparisons.
    • Added clearer informational, warning, error, and hook-compatible messages.
  • Bug Fixes

    • Installation now reports missing or unreadable supporting files consistently, with appropriate exit statuses.
    • Improved command parsing for startup errors, including options that accept values.
  • Documentation

    • Updated development and installation guidance to describe required supporting files and module loading.

scripts/link-skills.sh is 4066 lines, over the 500-line limit AGENTS.md sets.
This is the first layer of the split: it makes the script an entry point that
sources topic modules, and moves the first two topics out.

The entry point keeps the header, the globals and the two load-time overrides.
script_abs_path and resolve_symlink_path move up from the paths section, above
the source list, because the loader needs them to find the real file behind a
symlink. boot_fail reports a module that will not load and stops: one line and
exit 2, or the bracketed line and exit 0 when the run is a session hook, so a
session start still ends well. The "[ -r ]" test before each "." is what makes
that reachable: "." is a special builtin, so on bash 3.2 an operand it cannot
read ends the shell before "|| boot_fail" runs. SCRIPT_PATH is assigned at load
time now; main assigns the same value again until main is split.

scripts/lib/link-skills/output.sh holds info, err, warn, die and hook_say byte
for byte. usage was 64 lines, over the function limit, so it becomes three bare
calls to usage_head, usage_options and usage_notes, which print the same
arguments in the same order. The SC2016 directive moves from above usage to the
printf in usage_options, the one that holds the literal $HOME.

scripts/lib/link-skills/names.sh holds the names and casing section byte for
byte. CASE_INSENSITIVE and HOOK_MODE are assigned in the entry point and read in
a module, so each carries an SC2034 directive naming its reader.

The harness copies both the script and its modules into a fixture now.
fixtures_install_script replaces the six cp calls that copied the script alone,
SOURCE_LIB names the module directory, and harness_require_subject refuses a run
without it. A new case, help_prints_usage, runs help, -h and --help and compares
the three outputs, so a split help text cannot drift.

Validation: pnpm check:shell with SHELL_SIZE_BASE=origin/main, shellcheck over
every tracked .sh file, node scripts/validate-skills.mjs, pnpm test:scripts, and
both harness passes at 145 passed, 0 failed, 0 skipped.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change extracts output and name handling into adjacent modules, loads them during startup, and updates fixture installation, harness checks, documentation, and help-output tests.

Changes

Link-skills modularization

Layer / File(s) Summary
Module contracts and startup loading
scripts/lib/link-skills/*, scripts/link-skills.sh, scripts/shell-size-baseline.txt
Output and name handling moved into modules. The script loads both modules from its resolved directory and handles module-loading failures for hook and normal execution.
Fixture installation and harness requirements
scripts/test-link-skills.sh, scripts/tests/lib/fixtures.sh, scripts/tests/link-skills/*
The harness requires the module directory. Fixtures install the script and modules together. Hook tests use the shared installer.
Usage documentation and help validation
AGENTS.md, README.md, scripts/tests/link-skills/output.sh
Documentation describes module loading and fixture requirements. Tests compare supported help forms and validate help content.

Review complete

  • Gather context (PR diff, changed files)
  • Read new modules (output.sh, names.sh) and updated link-skills.sh
  • Check AGENTS.md conformance (line/function limits, sourcing rules, shellcheck directives)
  • Check harness/test changes (fixtures.sh, test-link-skills.sh, topic files)
  • Check baseline file and docs updates
  • Post findings

Verdict: LGTM (one minor edge-case finding, not blocking)

This is a careful, mechanical extraction. I verified with git diff and wc -l that:

  • output.sh (129 lines) and names.sh (72 lines) are byte-for-byte the moved code — no logic changed, just relocated (usage split into usage_head/usage_options/usage_notes, each well under the 50-line function limit).
  • scripts/link-skills.sh is now 3937 lines, matching the updated scripts/shell-size-baseline.txt entry (4066 → 3937) — the ratchet moves in the allowed direction.
  • The new boot section sources both modules by absolute path from an explicit, fixed-order list (output.sh then names.sh), with no top-level code in either module (function-only, per the modularity rules), and each carries a Reads:/Writes: globals header.
  • The [ -r ... ] || boot_fail guard before every . is correctly explained (bash 3.2's special-builtin fatal-exit behavior on an unreadable source target) and matches the stated rationale.
  • The two new # shellcheck disable=SC2034 directives sit directly on the single assignment line each excuses (HOOK_MODE, CASE_INSENSITIVE), with a # read by <module> comment — matches the line-scoped-directive rule.
  • fixtures_install_script is correctly wired into every place that used to cp "$SOURCE_SCRIPT" directly for a fresh clone/copy (install-hooks-fresh.sh, install-hooks-stale.sh, install-hooks-duplicates.sh, fixtures_company), so copies made by the harness now carry the sibling lib/link-skills/ modules the entry point needs. case.sh's LS="$SOURCE_SCRIPT" path is untouched and correctly still points at the real in-repo script (modules already sit next to it there).
  • AGENTS.md/README.md updates accurately describe the new sourcing/fixture behavior.
  • No public-readership violations (no internal hostnames, personal paths, or incident notes) introduced.

Not independently verified: I could not execute shellcheck, the bash scripts/test-link-skills.sh harness, or pnpm check:shell in this sandbox (tool permissions blocked xargs/shellcheck/bash <script> invocations). The PR body's stated gate results (harness 145/145 on both bash and /bin/bash 3.2.57, shellcheck clean, check:shell clean) were not independently re-run — my review is based on static reading of the diff plus line/function counts I could compute directly.

Findings

  1. [P2] boot_fail's hook-mode detection is broader than the real onescripts/link-skills.sh:173-183. It scans all of BOOT_ARGS for a literal "hook" anywhere, while the real HOOK_MODE (set later, ~line 3778) only fires when the first positional argument is "hook". If a module fails to load while running e.g. link-skills.sh check --sources hook (a sources file literally named hook), boot_fail would misreport it as a hook run and exit 0 instead of the documented exit 2. Narrow, boot-time-only edge case (both modules load fine in the normal path), but it undermines the exit-code contract the surrounding comments describe. See inline comment for a suggested fix (match the same first-non-option-argument rule the real parser uses).

No other correctness, security, or AGENTS.md-conformance issues found in this diff.

Comment thread scripts/tests/link-skills/output.sh Outdated
boot_fail treated a literal "hook" anywhere in argv as a hook run. A non-hook
command whose option operand is named hook, such as
"link-skills.sh check --sources hook", therefore printed the bracketed hook
line and exited 0 when a module would not load, although the documented
contract for every non-hook command is one line on stderr and exit 2.

boot_fail now reads the command by main's own rule: the first argument that is
neither an option nor the operand of --sources or --assembly, with -h and
--help naming help wherever they sit. The option parser has still not run at
this point, so the rule is copied rather than shared.

The size baseline entry follows the file from 3937 to 3951 lines. That is 115
below the 4066 lines this branch's base carries, so the ratchet against main
still moves down.

Verified against a staged install with output.sh removed, under bash 5 and
/bin/bash 3.2.57: "hook" and "--sources hook hook" exit 0, while "check",
"check --sources hook", "--sources=hook check", "--assembly hook link",
"hook --help" and a run with no arguments exit 2.

Review round 1 closed at b92dc6d. Five findings, three fixed, two deferred.

  • The P2 boot_fail hook-mode finding, raised in the Claude review roll-up and again by Codex, is fixed in 8659048. boot_fail now reads the command by main's own rule instead of scanning argv for a literal hook, so check --sources hook reports the boot failure on stderr and exits 2. Answered on both inline threads with the verification.
  • CodeRabbit's help-output finding is fixed in b92dc6d. The three spellings of the help command are compared as files now, because case_run_script reads a run through a command substitution and drops trailing newlines.
  • The two P1 module-prefix findings are not fixed here. The rename is the final layer of this stack, Apply the module prefix rule to the link-skills modules #37, which already defines output_*, names_* and the _-prefixed private helpers. Doing it in this layer would turn every moved call site into a rebase conflict across six child branches. Recorded under Deferrals in the PR body.

On the Claude review's "not independently verified" note, the gates were re-run locally at this head: harness 145 passed, 0 failed, 0 skipped under bash 5.3.15 and under /bin/bash 3.2.57; shellcheck clean over all 33 tracked .sh files; SHELL_SIZE_BASE=origin/main pnpm check:shell ok; node scripts/validate-skills.mjs 3 skills; pnpm test:scripts 385 passed.

Two things for whoever rebases the stack. This round changes scripts/shell-size-baseline.txt from 3937 to 3951, so all six higher layers conflict on that one line when GitHub rebases them, and #37 also conflicts in scripts/link-skills.sh, where the rename touched the comment above boot_fail. Both resolutions are mechanical: keep the child's lower baseline number, and keep the new boot_fail body with #37's renamed comment. Codex did not re-review this head; it reported its code-review usage limit instead.

help_prints_usage captured each spelling through case_run_script, which reads
the run with a command substitution. That drops every trailing newline, so a
difference in the last bytes of one spelling would never reach LS_OUT and the
case would pass.

The case now runs each spelling into a file of its own under CASE_DIR and
compares the files with cmp, the way install-hooks-settings.sh already does.
LS_OUT and LS_RC are still set from that run, so the assertions that read the
text rather than compare it are unchanged. The case count stays at 145.

Review: LGTM

Re-reviewed at head b92dc6d, focused on whether the fixes from round 1 actually close the findings.

  • Gather context (PR diff vs origin/main at 4833e58, prior review threads, fixes at b92dc6d)
  • Re-read boot_fail fix (8659048) against the P2 finding
  • Re-read help-output test fix (b92dc6d) against CodeRabbit's finding
  • Check AGENTS.md conformance (line/function limits, sourcing, shellcheck directives, module prefixes)
  • Check public-readership rules
  • Post final review

Verdict: LGTM. This is a clean, mechanical extraction and the two substantive round‑1 findings are genuinely fixed, not just asserted fixed.

What I verified directly

  1. scripts/link-skills.sh diff is exactly a move + one new boot section. git diff origin/main..HEAD -- scripts/link-skills.sh shows output.sh's and names.sh's bodies deleted verbatim from the entry point with nothing else touched in those hunks, plus the new BOOT_ARGS/boot_fail/module-sourcing block. usage really is byte-identical, just split into usage_head/usage_options/usage_notes (each well under 50 lines). Confirmed line count: wc -l scripts/link-skills.sh → 3951, matching scripts/shell-size-baseline.txt's updated entry exactly, and 115 lines below main's 4066 — the ratchet moves the right direction.

  2. boot_fail (scripts/link-skills.sh:173-197) now mirrors main's own command-resolution rule, not "scan argv for hook anywhere" (the finding both the bot review and Codex raised inline). I compared it line-by-line against the real parser at scripts/link-skills.sh:3740-3794: --sources/--assembly correctly consume the next token as an operand regardless of its value (so --sources hook no longer gets mistaken for the command), --sources=*/--assembly=* fall through untouched since they carry no separate operand, -h/--help set cmd=help wherever they appear, and the first non-option token becomes cmd. This matches main's logic for every case the author listed as hand-verified. One theoretical residual: if an unknown option (e.g. -x hook) precedes hook in argv and a module fails to load, boot_fail would still resolve cmd=hook and exit 0, whereas a fully-loaded main would die "unknown option" (exit 2) before ever reaching that check. This requires a broken install and a malformed invocation simultaneously — a narrow enough edge case on top of an already-narrow edge case that I wouldn't block on it, just flagging for completeness since the PR body itself says this path isn't harness-covered.

  3. The help-output test fix (scripts/tests/link-skills/output.sh:27-58) correctly addresses CodeRabbit's trailing-newline finding. _help_run now redirects each of the three spellings (help, -h, --help) to its own file via direct "$BASH_BIN" "$LS" ... > file and compares -h/--help against the help baseline with cmp -s, so a trailing-newline divergence can't slip through a command-substitution comparison the way the original LS_OUT string comparison could. LS_RC/LS_OUT are still set for the existing text assertions, so nothing else in the case regressed.

  4. Fixture wiring is consistent. fixtures_install_script (scripts/tests/lib/fixtures.sh:16-32) is now used at every call site that used to cp "$SOURCE_SCRIPT" directly for a fresh copy (fixtures_company, both install-hooks-fresh.sh custom-path cases, both space/apostrophe-path cases, the relative-path and non-executable cases in install-hooks-stale.sh, the spaced-path case in install-hooks-duplicates.sh), and each now correctly drops the redundant chmod +x (folded into the helper) while install_hooks_replaces_non_executable_direct_script still deliberately re-chmod 644s afterward for its own test purpose. scripts/test-link-skills.sh's harness_require_subject now also fails fast (exit 2) if SOURCE_LIB is missing, matching the doc claim.

  5. Module hygiene: both new modules are function-only (no top-level code), sourced by absolute path in a fixed order, and each carries a Reads:/Writes: globals header per the modularity rules. The two # shellcheck disable=SC2034 directives (HOOK_MODE, CASE_INSENSITIVE) sit on their single assignment lines with # read by <module> comments, and the pre-existing usage()'s SC2016 directive is now correctly scoped down to the one printf line in usage_options instead of covering a whole function.

  6. Docs (AGENTS.md, README.md) accurately describe the new sourcing/fixture behavior, and there's nothing touching internal hostnames, personal paths, or incident notes.

  7. Diff stat matches the PR body exactly once you exclude .github/PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE.md (an artifact of this being a shallow clone diffed against a main that has moved past this branch's base — not part of this PR's tracked changes).

Reasonable to defer as recorded. #37 (already open, per the author) carries the output_*/names_*/_-prefixed rename, and doing it here would replay through six stacked child branches as pure rebase-conflict churn with no behavior change. The collision risk while unrenamed is real but bounded (disjoint names between the two current modules, harness runs the full set every layer) — worth keeping an eye on so #37 doesn't sit open too long, but not a reason to hold this layer.

Not independently re-verified

I could not execute shellcheck, the harness, or check-shell-size.mjs in this sandbox (tool permission denied for running scripts/binaries). Everything above is static-diff verification (line-by-line comparison of boot_fail against main's parser, line counts, call-site greps) rather than a fresh run of the stated gates.

Roll-up of all findings across this review thread

  1. [P2, FIXED @ 8659048] boot_fail scanned argv for hook anywhere instead of resolving the actual command — verified fixed above (residual unknown-option-plus-boot-failure edge case noted, not blocking).
  2. [P2, FIXED @ b92dc6d] Help-output comparison used a command-substitution string compare that drops trailing newlines — verified fixed above via cmp -s on captured files.
  3. [P1, deferred to Apply the module prefix rule to the link-skills modules #37] output.sh functions lack the output_ prefix — accepted deferral, rationale sound.
  4. [P1, deferred to Apply the module prefix rule to the link-skills modules #37] names.sh functions lack the names_ prefix — accepted deferral, rationale sound.
  5. [P3] CodeRabbit docstring-coverage pre-merge check warning — not applicable to this codebase's conventions (AGENTS.md explicitly says default to no comments; the repo doesn't use docstrings), safe to ignore.
