**SHIPPED 2026-07-09 — plugin skeleton 0.1.13 (skeleton-only release; adapter version-of-truth stays 0.18.4).**

Legacy-parity port from sister project `../claude_skill_owl`: "skill hints" = the `argument-hint:`
YAML frontmatter field on each SKILL.md (rendered natively by Claude Code next to a slash-command;
owl enforces it via HINT-01 presence + HINT-04 YAML-quoting in `tests/skill_hints.rs`).

**KEY ARCHITECTURAL FACT:** `argument-hint` lives in the SKELETON SKILL.md frontmatter, read by CC
directly — the **adapter manifest CANNOT deliver it** (adapter only injects the operative BODY via
UPS). So a hint change reaches users ONLY through a cplugs skeleton push, never `spt adapter update`.
That makes this the rare **skeleton-only** release: bump `plugin.json` 0.1.12→0.1.13, push cplugs,
NO adapter.spt repack/republish. Versioned as `## [plugin 0.1.13]` in CHANGELOG + git tag
`skeleton-0.1.13` (NOT a v0.18.x adapter tag — operator chose skeleton-only over a ceremonial
v0.18.5 adapter bump).

What shipped (11 skills): added hints to commune `"[--checkpoint]"`, list-agents
`"[--show-all] [--workers] [--detail]"`, role `"[<directive>] [--include-desc]"`, setup/signoff/version `""`;
fixed ready `"[<id>] [--once]"`; kept force-stop/live/send/subnet. Values DERIVED FROM REAL
`spt … --help` surfaces, not copied from owl (owl's --all/--offline/--block/--reboot flags don't
exist in spt-core; spt uses --show-all/--workers/--detail/--once). Enforcement: presence + quoting
guard added to `ci/publish/validate-skeleton.sh` [impl], negative cases 6-7 in
`tests/skeleton-validate.sh` [unit], `REQ-SKILL-ARG-HINT` minted (doc/impl/unit, traceable-reqs GREEN).

**BONUS:** the cplugs push showed `role/SKILL.md` as **A**dded — the role skeleton had never reached
cplugs since v0.18.0, so this push finally closes the [[v0180-items-3-5-and-f032]] operator-reinstall
gap for `/sptc:role` command recognition.

Repo commit 00cb35a (pushed main). cplugs commit 20e455c (pushed). **Operator's remaining manual
step (interactive, local): `claude plugin install sptc@cplugs` then `/reload-plugins` + restart
session** to pull 0.1.13 and surface the hints.
