From 4db7b677aba32b2a2cb9d89febcc224edb317e4d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ash Shaw Date: Wed, 5 Aug 2026 08:25:29 +0200 Subject: [PATCH 1/7] docs: add CHANGELOG entries for PR #1533 (agent consolidation and file_type fixes) --- CHANGELOG.md | 7 +++++++ 1 file changed, 7 insertions(+) diff --git a/CHANGELOG.md b/CHANGELOG.md index 1349c63af..2146be814 100644 --- a/CHANGELOG.md +++ b/CHANGELOG.md @@ -28,11 +28,18 @@ and this project adheres to [Semantic Versioning](https://semver.org/spec/v2.0.0 ### Removed +- **Duplicate `.github/agents/` folder (Phase 1 restructuring compliance)** — Deleted entire `.github/agents/` folder (55 files) consolidating all agent implementations to root `agents/` folder per Phase 1 restructuring rules. The `.github/agents/` folder violated the portable assets rule by containing multi-file agent implementations (Claude/Copilot/OpenAI) when it should only contain "simple YAML/JSON definitions" (GitHub-native only). All agent implementations now properly organized at root as portable reusable assets. ([PR #1533](https://github.com/lightspeedwp/.github/pull/1533), [#1510](https://github.com/lightspeedwp/.github/issues/1510), [#1507](https://github.com/lightspeedwp/.github/issues/1507)) + - **Legacy README workflows (Phase 2.4 consolidation)** — Removed three legacy README management workflows (`readme-audit.yml`, `readme-regen.yml`, `readme-update.yml`) consolidated into unified `documentation.yml` workflow. Eliminates 449 lines of code duplication (~44% reduction for README workflows), saves ~3-4 min/month GitHub Actions execution time, and establishes single source of truth for README validation logic. Push trigger re-enabled in `documentation.yml` following consolidation. ([PR #1317](https://github.com/lightspeedwp/.github/pull/1317), [Epic #1227](https://github.com/lightspeedwp/.github/issues/1227), [#1310](https://github.com/lightspeedwp/.github/issues/1310)) ### Deprecated (none identified) + +### Fixed + +- **Agent file_type frontmatter validation (Phase 1 restructuring)** — Added missing `file_type` frontmatter to all root agent configuration files: 48 provider-specific agent.md files (claude/, copilot/, openai/) with `file_type: 'agent'`, and 16 shared core-prompt.md files with `file_type: 'prompt'`. Fixes 200+ frontmatter validation errors and ensures all agent files comply with documentation schema requirements. ([PR #1533](https://github.com/lightspeedwp/.github/pull/1533), [#1510](https://github.com/lightspeedwp/.github/issues/1510), [#1507](https://github.com/lightspeedwp/.github/issues/1507)) + ### Added - **Gitleaks secret scanning** — Added `gitleaks-reusable.yml`, an organisation-wide reusable workflow other repositories call via `workflow_call`, plus a `gitleaks.yml` caller running on pull requests into `develop`/`main`. Runs the open-source Gitleaks CLI directly (the `gitleaks-action` wrapper requires a paid licence for organisation repositories). Per-PR runs scan the working tree; `workflow_dispatch` accepts a `full-history` input for on-demand full-history rescans. A baseline full-history scan of this repository returned 50 hits, all verified as placeholder values in documentation and tests, allowlisted in `.gitleaks.toml`.

This code was applying bare labels instead of required family prefixes, violating label governance. Replaced by pre-creation validation script (Phase 3) that prevents bare labels before creation.
