ReleasePort's take

Light signal
editorial:auto 13d

The CLI command `skilify` has been removed and renamed to `skillify`; all imports and artifacts now use the new name.

Why it matters: Update any scripts or configurations that invoke the skilify CLI command or import the skilify module before next deployment; state migration handles existing data gracefully.

Summary

AI summary

The CLI command, source directory, and related artifacts renamed from skilify to skillify, breaking existing usage.

Summary

Hard switch from skilify to skillify across the tree. The CLI subcommand and module were named skilify but the natural derivation from skill is skillify. No deprecation alias — hivemind skilify ... now returns Unknown command: skilify.

Scope

  • src/skilify/ -> src/skillify/ (incl. skilify-worker.ts, spawn-skilify-worker.ts)
  • src/commands/skilify.ts -> skillify.ts, runSkilifyCommand -> runSkillifyCommand
  • 16 claude-code/tests/skilify-*.test.ts files renamed
  • Tree-wide case-aware text replace across src/, openclaw/, pi/extension-source/, .github/workflows/, README, RELEASE_CHECKLIST, esbuild.config.mjs, vitest.config.ts, hook tests
  • Stale <agent>/bundle/skilify-worker.js artifacts removed; bundles regenerated to <agent>/bundle/skillify-worker.js

State directory auto-migration

New src/skillify/legacy-migration.ts: one-shot renameSync of ~/.deeplake/state/skilify/ -> ~/.deeplake/state/skillify/ on first boot of the renamed version. Wired into all four mkdirSync entry points (state.ts, scope-config.ts, manifest.ts, auto-pull.ts). EXDEV/EPERM falls back to leaving the legacy dir in place.

OpenClaw is a self-contained bundle that can't import from src/skillify/, so the migration is inlined into openclaw/src/index.ts and called before the existing fsMkdir on the state dir — once the new dir exists the migration becomes a no-op and any legacy data would be orphaned.

Tests

New claude-code/tests/skillify-legacy-migration.test.ts (5 tests): legacy-missing, current-already-exists (no clobber), happy-path rename preserving config.json/pulled.json/per-project state, idempotent re-call (module-level attempted flag), and renameSync EXDEV swallowed.

Audit

After the rename, the only skilify references in the tree are 4 intentional string literals (the migration helper's legacy-path target, the inlined openclaw copy, JSDoc, and a test fixture) plus their 18 esbuild compilations in bundle/. Zero filenames, zero camelCase/PascalCase identifiers.

Risk

Users with hivemind skilify aliases / scripts get a hard error after upgrade. State directory auto-migrates so installed-skill manifests, scope config, and per-project state survive without manual intervention. If renameSync fails (cross-device link, perms), the legacy dir stays put and the new dir starts fresh — pull repopulates pulled.json, but unpull of pre-rename installs may need manual cleanup.

Sequencing

Originally planned to wait for #112 to merge to avoid conflicts; #112 has since landed plus follow-ups (autopull throttle removal, maybeAutoPull -> autoPullSkills rename, README condensed into docs/SKILLIFY.md). Branch was based on the pre-merge tip of #112 and merged with origin/main afterward; conflicts in auto-pull.ts, the four session-start.ts files, the CLI USAGE block, two test files, README, and 6 bundle outputs are resolved in 148337d.

Test plan

  • [ ] npm test green (2184/2184 in CI)
  • [ ] npm run build produces all 12 + 10 + 9 + 9 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 bundles
  • [ ] After upgrade on a machine with a populated ~/.deeplake/state/skilify/, the directory has been renamed in place to ~/.deeplake/state/skillify/ on the first SessionStart and installed pulled skills still resolve
  • [ ] hivemind skilify (legacy spelling) returns Unknown command: skilify
  • [ ] hivemind skillify works as documented

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes

    • Corrected skill management command spelling from skilify to skillify throughout the system.
    • Added automatic legacy state directory migration that renames older ~/.deeplake/state/skilify to ~/.deeplake/state/skillify on first run.
    • Fixed module import paths and worker bundle references to use correct skillify naming.
  • Chores

    • Updated build configuration and test files to reference corrected module paths and naming conventions.

Breaking Changes

  • Removed CLI subcommand `skilify`; use `skillify` instead (causes `Unknown command: skilify`).
  • Renamed source directory `src/skilify/` to `src/skillify/` and all related files.
  • Changed module import paths from `skilify` to `skillify` throughout the codebase.
  • Updated bundle artifact name from `/bundle/skilify-worker.js` to `/bundle/skillify-worker.js`.
