fix: resolve the actionable reported issues (#954, #949, #933, #931, #969, #968, #924, #885)
- #954: strip non-spec source/attribution keys from all 39 plugin.json
  manifests so Claude Code's validator accepts them; metadata preserved in
  new .claude-plugin/authoring-notes.json sidecars; check_plugin_json.py now
  hard-fails manifests carrying those keys and sanity-checks the sidecar;
  CLAUDE.md ClawHub schema section updated to the new rule.
- #949: move the c-level-agents plugin out of c-level-advisor/ to a
  top-level directory so the two marketplace sources no longer overlap;
  updated marketplace.json source, homepage, descriptions, all
  cross-references, docs, harness manifest, mirror-tree symlinks/indexes,
  and rebased the moved files' relative links; domain counters trued up
  (18 -> 19 domains).
- #933: replace dead links to the gitignored maintainer-local megaprompts/
  tree with annotated plain-text references (44 files: SKILL.md, READMEs,
  agents, commands).
- #931: DynamoDB on-demand pricing updated to post-Nov-2024 rates
  ($0.625/M writes, $0.125/M strongly consistent reads).
- #969: skill_security_auditor.py and the three dossier scripts reconfigure
  stdout/stderr to UTF-8 (errors=replace) so legacy Windows codepages no
  longer crash at print time; PYTHONUTF8=1 documented.
- #968: Windows Notes section in INSTALLATION.md + README pointer for the
  core.symlinks mirror-tree checkout caveat.
- #924/#885 residuals: hook commands quote "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}" paths in
  all plugin hooks.json/settings.json (space-safe roots); removed the stale
  pre-rename status/review mirror symlinks and index entries left over from
  the memory-status/memory-review rename.

fable-goal

Turn a ramble about something you want made into one polished, autonomous /goal prompt — copy-paste ready for a fresh session. The skill writes the prompt, never the build.

What this skill does

You describe an outcome in fragments ("I want like 5 landing pages for my prompt pack, crazy good, put them up somewhere"). The skill:

  1. Extracts the six slots a goal prompt needs: deliverable, quantity, audience/stakes, tools named, quality bar, destination
  2. Fills gaps from your brand profile (if you keep one) or sensible defaults — asking at most ONE question batch, never interviewing in rounds
  3. Verifies before naming — every skill, path, or MCP the prompt mentions is checked against the live environment so the fresh session never chases phantoms
  4. Writes a 150–350 word flowing-prose prompt with the seven-part anatomy: desire + stakes → quality bar → tool inventory + discovery mandate → creative-freedom grant → verification loop matched to the medium → delivery → goal line + autonomy directive
  5. Self-checks against six binary criteria before delivering, then outputs the prompt in one fenced block plus a short Assumptions list

The philosophy

Get out of the model's way. A great /goal prompt nails the what, grants explicit freedom on the how, and demands self-verification before done — with a completion condition the session can observe itself (load the page, run the script, watch the render).

Usage

/cs:fable-goal I keep manually sorting the podcast files my editor sends, write me a prompt so a session builds me something for that

Or just ramble and say "turn this into a goal prompt."

Design notes

Unlike sibling productivity/* plugins, this one intentionally ships no agents/ persona and no assets/: the skill is a single reasoning pass with nothing to orchestrate in parallel, invoked via /cs:fable-goal, and its output is one prose block with no templates to fill. scripts/goal_prompt_self_check.py covers the mechanically checkable subset of the pre-delivery self-check (word count, goal line, autonomy directive, verification/freedom/destination language); deliverable concreteness and live-environment resource verification remain author judgment.

Attribution

Derived from duncan-buildroom/freeskills fable-goal ("free to use and modify. Made for builders."). This version is a substantial restructure: wrong-tool check, observable-done principle, verification-defaults-by-medium table, six-point pre-delivery self-check, failure-mode catalog, and a second worked example in a non-web medium.
