Add AAIF Meetups Toolkit (flattened single-plugin marketplace) + repo hardening

[rparundekar]

Bootstraps the aaif/meetups repo: lands the full AAIF Meetups Toolkit as a flattened single-plugin Claude Code marketplace, with repo hardening (pre-commit, CI, schema validation). main is an empty README; this PR brings everything in for review.

Commits

1. Add AAIF Meetups Toolkit plugin + marketplace — 12 Agent Skills + manifests + docs.
2. Harden repo — pre-commit, CI, manifest $schema, changelog.

Layout: flattened single-plugin marketplace

The repo root is both the marketplace and the plugin — no plugins/<name>/ nesting. Per the docs, a marketplace plugin's source may be "./" (the marketplace root). The $schema enforces this (source must match ^\./.*).

.claude-plugin/
  ├── marketplace.json   (source: "./")
  └── plugin.json
skills/                  (12 skills)

Installs unchanged: /plugin marketplace add aaif/meetups → /plugin install aaif-meetups@aaif.

Hardening

• .pre-commit-config.yaml — hygiene, check-json/check-yaml, Ruff (bug-focused lint, no style churn), codespell, gitleaks, and a local SKILL.md frontmatter validator.
• .github/workflows/validate.yml — CI runs pre-commit + claude plugin validate . (one call validates marketplace and plugin.json schema since source: "./").
• $schema on both manifests (SchemaStore — same as anthropics/claude-code).
• pyproject.toml, CHANGELOG.md, CONTRIBUTING updates.

🐛 Bug fixed in passing

aaif-create-chapter and aaif-create-online-series had argument-hint: "<X>" [--slug …] — a quoted YAML scalar followed by bare text, which is invalid YAML. The frontmatter failed to parse, so the skill loaded with all metadata silently dropped (including the description that drives auto-activation). Both single-quoted. The check-skill-frontmatter hook now guards against regressions (validate's marketplace check does not parse skill frontmatter).

Deliberately not done

• No ruff-format/pyupgrade — would rewrite the delicate OOXML scripts (~+579/−161); a formatting sweep is its own PR.
• No pretty-format-json — it escaped the manifests' em-dashes and exploded the keyword arrays.
• Hardcoded Google IDs left as-is — resource IDs (not secrets), intentionally shipped per the README; gitleaks confirms no credentials.

Self-review fixes (post-open, commits 3cd505e, 67fcb5e)

A 5-agent self-review ran; doc fixes + four correctness fixes were applied (full breakdown in the PR comments):

• luma check is now 3-state (live / absent / could-not-verify) — no longer reports every network error as a hard "NOT LIVE (404)".
• Residual rebrand tokens fail the run (non-zero exit) instead of a missable inline note under "Done."
• clean.py / intake.py hard-error on a missing required header instead of silently reporting an empty queue; fixed a latent TypeError in clean.py when the Email column is absent.
• gws_json raises on empty/non-JSON stdout instead of silently skipping a subtree.

Deferred to follow-ups: expanding OOXML rebrand part-coverage (now surfaced loudly by the residual hard-fail), de-duplicating the rebrand engine across the two create scripts, and adding unit tests.

Verification

• pre-commit run --all-files — all hooks pass.
• claude plugin validate . — passes (marketplace + plugin.json).

Hero Self-Review

Five pr-review-toolkit agents (code-review, silent-failure, test, comments, type-design) ran against main...toolkit-and-hardening. Aggregated below. Most script findings are pre-existing behavior in the helper scripts (now landing fresh via this bootstrap PR); the doc findings are from this session's flatten/hardening work.

Critical (1)

• [silent-failure] skills/aaif-create-{chapter,online-series}/scripts/*.py luma_ok() — a bare except Exception: return False collapses timeouts, DNS/SSL/connection errors, and 403/429/5xx all into a hard-coded NOT LIVE (404) message. The organizer is told as fact that the Luma page doesn't exist (and to create it) when it may exist but be unreachable → duplicate pages. Should distinguish live / confirmed-404 / could-not-verify.

Important (8)

• [code-review · type-design · silent-failure] skills/aaif-clean-data/scripts/clean.py:129 — not (row[ni] or row[ei] or "") raises TypeError (row[None]) when the Email header is absent and a name cell is empty. Every other ei/ci access is None-guarded; only this gate isn't. Localized, safe fix.
• [silent-failure] residual rebrand tokens are printed inline (!! residual) but the run still exits 0 with Done. — a chapter/series can ship still saying "San Francisco" and report success. Accumulate residuals → loud summary + non-zero exit.
• [code-review] OOXML rebrand (rebrand_part) only covers slides/document/sharedStrings/metadata — text in slide masters/layouts/notes, Word headers/footers, and DrawingML text boxes is copied through unbranded. (Same root cause as the residual finding; making residual a hard failure at least surfaces it.)
• [silent-failure] missing required header → silent false success: clean.py prints "Clean — nothing to fix." and intake.py reports "0 awaiting review" when the key column (Full name / Timestamp) isn't found. Header rename is realistic given these read by name. Treat missing required header as a hard error.
• [silent-failure] gws_json returns {} on empty-but-successful stdout → list_children returns [] → a subtree silently fails to clone, run still says Done.
• [comments] CHANGELOG.md:5 references plugins/aaif-meetups/.claude-plugin/plugin.json — the old nested path removed by the flatten; manifest is now .claude-plugin/plugin.json. (This session's bug.)
• [comments] scripts/check_frontmatter.py:6 docstring claims "claude plugin validate catches this in CI" — empirically false (I verified validate does not parse skill frontmatter); contradicts CONTRIBUTING/validate.yml. (This session's bug.)
• [comments] .pre-commit-config.yaml:52 comment "claude plugin validate is the CI authority" — same inaccuracy; the check-skill-frontmatter hook is the actual frontmatter authority. (This session's bug.)

Suggestions (selected)

• [comments] .pre-commit-config.yaml:28-35 — "no auto-format" comment sits next to ruff-check --fix, which does mutate files (removes unused imports). Clarify.
• [code-review · silent-failure] intake.py:46 fragile json.loads(txt[txt.index("{"):]) vs the safer clean.py:41 approach; align + wrap in a clear error.
• [code-review] slugify can yield an empty slug for all-non-ASCII names → aaif- URLs; require --slug when empty.
• [type-design · test · comments] the rebrand engine is duplicated near-verbatim across create_chapter.py and create_series.py; one bugfix must land twice. Candidate for a shared helper.
• [test] cheapest high-value tests: transform_text rebrand rules (order-dependence, \bSF\b boundaries, casing), check_frontmatter.check(), and clean.py normalizers + colletter off-by-one. Pure functions, no fixtures.
• [code-review · type-design] minor handle leaks (check_frontmatter.py:18, ZipFile(...).testzip()); name param vs ctx["name"] ambiguity in clone_and_rebrand.

Strengths

• No injection vectors: every gws call passes an argument list (never shell=True); all user-derived values go through json.dumps.
• All 12 SKILL.md frontmatter blocks parse with non-empty name+description; both manifests parse; all 5 scripts py_compile clean.
• Flattened source: "./" layout is valid; claude plugin validate . correctly covers both manifests.
• Defensive design already present: _gws transient retry, residual_tokens post-check, --dry-run guards, correct binary-part passthrough. check_frontmatter.py has clean "list of errors, empty = OK" contracts.

Hero Self-Review Improvements

Applied the doc fixes + all four correctness fixes. Two commits: 3cd505e (docs), 67fcb5e (scripts).

Critical (1 / 1 fixed):

• create_chapter.py / create_series.py luma_ok → luma_status: now 3-state (live / absent / unknown) instead of collapsing every timeout, DNS/SSL, or 5xx into a fabricated NOT LIVE (404). Catches HTTPError (404 → absent, else unknown) separately. Unit-verified: 200→live, 404→absent, 503→unknown, network-error→unknown.

Important (8 / 8 fixed):

• clean.py:129 — guarded the Email column before indexing; the latent TypeError (row[None]) when the Email header is absent is gone.
• residual rebrand tokens — accumulated across the walk; the run now prints a WARNING: summary and exits non-zero instead of an easy-to-miss inline note under Done. (both create scripts; --rebrand-local too).
• clean.py / intake.py missing required header (Full name/Email, Timestamp/Status) — now a hard ABORT naming the actual headers, instead of "nothing to fix" / "0 awaiting review".
• gws_json — raises on empty or non-JSON stdout instead of returning {} (which silently skipped a subtree during clone).
• CHANGELOG.md:5 — points at .claude-plugin/plugin.json, not the removed nested path.
• check_frontmatter.py docstring + .pre-commit-config.yaml frontmatter comment — corrected: claude plugin validate does not parse skill frontmatter; this hook is the guard (locally and in CI).

Suggestions (1 fixed, rest deferred):

• Fixed: .pre-commit-config.yaml ruff comment now clarifies --fix removes unused imports but does not reformat.

Skipped / deferred (with reasons):

• OOXML rebrand part coverage (masters/layouts/headers/footers/text-boxes) — real gap, but a larger change; the residual-token check is now a hard failure, so any unbranded part fails the run loudly rather than shipping silently. Worth a focused follow-up.
• De-duplicate the rebrand engine across the two create scripts, and the suggested unit tests (transform_text, check_frontmatter, clean normalizers/colletter) — valuable but out of scope for this bootstrap PR; left as follow-ups.
• Minor: intake.py first-brace JSON slicing, slugify empty-slug guard, file-handle context managers, name vs ctx["name"] rename — low-severity polish, deferred.
