From 12c9bc67d1c59211dbbd8c897f8c51463cb89b5e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: CWF Date: Thu, 23 Apr 2026 11:53:17 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] fix: download full skill bundle instead of SKILL.md only MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Skills often bundle SKILL.md with references/, scripts/, assets/, templates/, and other subdirs. The install flow previously hardcoded SKILL.md + references/*.md + scripts/*.sh, which silently dropped every other file. Skills with .py/.js scripts or unlisted subdirs were installed broken. - Add scripts/fetch-skill-bundle.sh: parses GitHub blob/tree/raw URLs, enumerates the skill root via git tree API, downloads every file preserving subtree layout - Rewrite installation-guide.md §3d (GitHub + Direct URL sources) to use tree enumeration instead of hardcoded subdirs/extensions - Update SKILL.md Step 4 to walk the full installed tree and verify bundle completeness against relative paths SKILL.md references - Update scan scope and integrity hashing to cover every file in the bundle - Add rationalization/red-flag entries for partial-download mistakes Verified against anthropics/skills/skills/pdf: old flow produced 1 file, new flow produces 12 files (SKILL.md + forms.md + reference.md + LICENSE.txt + 8 Python scripts) with correct scripts/ subtree.
