From e2f58839ebddd51920f15c3d64985e668056cf81 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ben Everly Date: Sat, 22 Aug 2026 14:37:26 -0500 Subject: [PATCH 1/3] ci: add prettier and a pull-request format workflow Prettier at printWidth 80 with proseWrap always, so markdown prose is wrapped consistently instead of by hand. The workflow commits with inline git rather than a third-party action, keeping it on official actions/* while it holds contents: write. Fork PRs are skipped because their token is read-only. Documents style: in the commit-type list, since that is the type the workflow's own formatting commits use. --- .github/workflows/format.yml | 67 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ .prettierignore | 4 ++ .prettierrc | 4 ++ CLAUDE.md | 71 +++++++++++++++++++++++------------- package-lock.json | 17 +++++++++ package.json | 5 +++ 6 files changed, 143 insertions(+), 25 deletions(-) create mode 100644 .github/workflows/format.yml create mode 100644 .prettierignore create mode 100644 .prettierrc diff --git a/.github/workflows/format.yml b/.github/workflows/format.yml new file mode 100644 index 0000000..809c153 --- /dev/null +++ b/.github/workflows/format.yml @@ -0,0 +1,67 @@ +name: Format + +on: + pull_request: + +permissions: + contents: write + +concurrency: + group: format-${{ github.head_ref }} + cancel-in-progress: true + +jobs: + prettier: + runs-on: ubuntu-latest + env: + # Fork PRs get a read-only token, so they are verified instead of fixed. + IS_FORK: + ${{ github.event.pull_request.head.repo.full_name != github.repository + }} + steps: + - name: Checkout PR branch + uses: actions/checkout@v4 + with: + # A fork's branch does not exist here; fall back to the merge ref. + ref: ${{ env.IS_FORK != 'true' && github.head_ref || '' }} + persist-credentials: true + token: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }} + + - name: Setup Node + uses: actions/setup-node@v4 + with: + node-version: 20 + cache: npm + + - name: Install dependencies + run: npm ci + + - name: Check formatting + if: env.IS_FORK == 'true' + run: npm run format:check + + - name: Run Prettier + if: env.IS_FORK != 'true' + run: npm run format + + - name: Commit formatting + if: env.IS_FORK != 'true' + env: + BRANCH: ${{ github.head_ref }} + run: | + if git diff --quiet; then + echo "Already formatted; nothing to commit." + exit 0 + fi + git config user.name "github-actions[bot]" + git config user.email "41898282+github-actions[bot]@users.noreply.github.com" + git commit -am "style: format with prettier" + if git push; then + exit 0 + fi + remote=$(git ls-remote origin "refs/heads/$BRANCH" | cut -f1) + if [ "$remote" != "$(git rev-parse HEAD~1)" ]; then + echo "Branch advanced during formatting; the newer run will format it." + exit 0 + fi + exit 1 diff --git a/.prettierignore b/.prettierignore new file mode 100644 index 0000000..8e3a92e --- /dev/null +++ b/.prettierignore @@ -0,0 +1,4 @@ +node_modules/ +package-lock.json +CHANGELOG.md +**/CHANGELOG.md diff --git a/.prettierrc b/.prettierrc new file mode 100644 index 0000000..a68a6f4 --- /dev/null +++ b/.prettierrc @@ -0,0 +1,4 @@ +{ + "printWidth": 80, + "proseWrap": "always" +} diff --git a/CLAUDE.md b/CLAUDE.md index 687e6cb..c115655 100644 --- a/CLAUDE.md +++ b/CLAUDE.md @@ -1,6 +1,7 @@ # Claude Code Marketplace Repository -This repo is a Claude Code plugin marketplace.

The commit skill's heredoc example was already latently malformed: the fence sat five spaces deep under a list item while the heredoc body started at column 0, which closes the item and leaves the fence unclosed. Reflowing it exposed that. The fence now sits at the bullet's content column, so the list stays intact and Report is step 6 again rather than restarting at 1. The heredoc itself was wrong independent of the markdown: EOF shared a line with the closing paren, which git never accepts as a terminator. --- development-workflow/skills/bug-report/SKILL.md | 4 +++- development-workflow/skills/commit/SKILL.md | 14 ++++++++------ 2 files changed, 11 insertions(+), 7 deletions(-) diff --git a/development-workflow/skills/bug-report/SKILL.md b/development-workflow/skills/bug-report/SKILL.md index 6e1cc29..88fd360 100644 --- a/development-workflow/skills/bug-report/SKILL.md +++ b/development-workflow/skills/bug-report/SKILL.md @@ -30,7 +30,9 @@ Output is tracker-agnostic markdown — Linear, Jira, GitHub Issues, or a paste. ## Expected vs actual -**Expected** — **Actual** — +**Expected** — + +**Actual** — ## Evidence diff --git a/development-workflow/skills/commit/SKILL.md b/development-workflow/skills/commit/SKILL.md index 1079488..6c8745c 100644 --- a/development-workflow/skills/commit/SKILL.md +++ b/development-workflow/skills/commit/SKILL.md @@ -59,16 +59,18 @@ Follow these steps exactly: 5. **Commit:** - Run `git commit` with the generated message. - Use a HEREDOC to pass the message: + ```bash git commit -m "$(cat <<'EOF' - ``` + type(scope): description -type(scope): description - -Multi-line body goes here.
