hcom

Hook delivery fixes, transcript improvements, and a new cargo-dist release pipeline with Homebrew support.

• Intent tips restored in hook delivery — [tip] intent=X: hints are back in the agent-facing hook context, emitted once per delivery batch so agents know whether a reply is expected.

• Transcript parsing fixed — Gemini tool-only turns no longer collapse into silence; OpenCode synthetic assistant text is filtered; mixed Codex response_item/event_msg transcripts no longer duplicate turns.

• OpenCode plugin content-check — Stale plugins are now detected by comparing file content against the embedded source, not just checking existence. XDG config paths and OPENCODE_CONFIG_DIR scanning restored for non-standard installs.

• Gemini verify accepts uvx wrappers — Hook verification now checks that the command contains the expected hcom-owned suffix rather than requiring an exact match, fixing false negatives when Gemini runs via uvx.

• Name-generation lock scoped to DB — Fixes flaky parallel test failures by deriving the instance name lock path from the actual database file rather than the global HCOM_DIR.

• cargo-dist release pipeline — Replaces the hand-written release workflow with cargo-dist. Adds a Homebrew tap (aannoo/homebrew-hcom), shell installer, per-platform checksums, and musl Linux targets.

• Community: agent-messaging skill (#17 by @yigitkonur) — Enhanced hcom-agent-messaging skill with tested command reference, per-tool delivery timing, scripting patterns, and intent system docs. Adds a new hcom-workflow-scripts skill.
