[3.6.0] - 2026-05-03

Theme: Quality-of-life release — packaging targets, GitHub issue workflow, codebase analysis fixes, and source detection hardening.

Added

• IBM Bob packaging target — new --target bob adaptor and agent install support for IBM's Bob agent platform (#366)
• GitHub issue filtering — --github-issue-state, --github-issue-labels, and --github-issue-since filters in the GitHub scraper for narrowing which issues are pulled (#367)
• Per-issue files — GitHub scraper now writes one Markdown file per issue instead of a single bundle, improving navigation and downstream chunking (#367)
• Pinecone frontmatter — Pinecone vector exports now include consistent YAML frontmatter for metadata round-tripping (#367)

Fixed

• Unified scraper now generates codebase_analysis/ index — local sources were producing C3.x outputs with broken SKILL.md links; the unified skill builder now wires up the index and resolves links correctly (#362, #376)
• Guides fallback fires correctly — unified_skill_builder was emitting a truthy placeholder for empty guides which suppressed the fallback content; placeholder removed (#364, #375)
• HTML URLs no longer treated as local files — source_detector now checks for http(s):// before falling through to the local-path branch, fixing false-positive routing (#373)
• PDF extracted images appear in markdown — pdf_scraper now inserts ![](…) references for images extracted from PDFs so they render in the generated SKILL.md (#369)
• C3.x output for local sources — unified command was skipping the C3.x analysis pipeline for local codebase sources; now emits the full pattern/test/guide/config/router output (#363, #372)
• Language filter passed to C3.x clone analysis — repos cloned for analysis now respect --languages instead of analyzing every file (fixes #361, #370)
• Unity vs Unreal detection — Unity projects with C# imports were being misidentified as Unreal; detection now keys on C# import patterns (fixes #365, #368)

[3.5.1] - 2026-04-12

Added

• Centralized defaults.json config — single source of truth for all default values (rate_limit, max_pages, workers, async_mode, enhancement, analysis, RAG settings). New defaults.py loader module. All 15+ files that previously hardcoded defaults now read from this file (#356)
• Low-signal code snippet filtering — _is_low_signal_code_snippet() filters junk patterns like bare True, options, single identifiers from quick references (#360)
• Pattern description normalization — _normalize_pattern_description() cleans boilerplate prefixes and truncates to first meaningful sentence (#360)
• Example language priority ranking — _example_language_priority() ranks Python > Bash > JSON > etc. for SKILL.md examples (#360)
• checkpoint_exists() method on DocToSkillConverter — was called but never defined (#360)
• Unified config source normalization — DocToSkillConverter.__init__ merges fields from sources[0] into flat config for compatibility (#360)
• display_name support in SKILL.md generation — produces cleaner titles and slugs (#360)
• New tests: test_doc_scraper_entrypoint.py (regression for _run_scraping), quick-reference quality tests, docs-only compatibility tests, nested reference coverage tests (#360)

Changed

• max_pages default is now unlimited (-1) — the scraper fetches all pages unless the user explicitly sets --max-pages. Previously defaulted to 500 (#356)
• --no-rate-limit flag now works — was defined in CLI arguments but never consumed by ExecutionContext (#356)
• constants.py reads from defaults.json — no longer contains hardcoded magic numbers (#356)
• ExecutionContext.ScrapingSettings — rate_limit and max_pages now use real defaults instead of None, preventing None-poisoning downstream (#356)
• SKILL.md frontmatter cleanup — empty doc_version: and version: fields are now omitted; placeholder sections removed (#360)
• Enhancement routing through platform adaptors instead of importing nonexistent enhance_skill_md helper (#360)
• quality_metrics.py uses rglob for nested reference directories in unified skills (#360)

Fixed

• TypeError: '>' not supported between instances of 'NoneType' and 'int' — rate_limit defaulted to None in ExecutionContext, which flowed through config.get("rate_limit", DEFAULT) (dict.get returns None when the key exists with value None, ignoring the fallback). Fixed in doc_scraper.py (sync + async paths), estimate_pages.py, and sync_config.py (#356, #359)
• discover_urls() loop never executed with unlimited max_pages — len(discovered) < -1 is always False. Added unlimited mode guard (#356)
• converter.scrape() called nonexistent method in _run_scraping() — changed to converter.scrape_all() (#360)
• None-safety for BeautifulSoup attributes — link["href"], sitemap.text, meta_desc["content"] guarded against None XML text nodes (#360)
• Python 3.10 compatibility — backslash in f-string in quality_metrics.py not supported before 3.12 (#360)

[3.5.0] - 2026-04-09

Theme: Grand Unification — one command, one interface, direct converters. Agent-agnostic architecture, marketplace pipeline, smart SPA discovery, all content extraction enabled by default. 80+ files changed across the codebase.

Added

• Grand Unification — unified create command as single entry point for all 18 source types with auto-detection, direct converter invocation, and centralized enhancement (#346)
• Agent-agnostic AgentClient abstraction — all 5 enhancers now support Claude, Kimi, Codex, Copilot, OpenCode, and custom agents via a unified interface. Auto-detects agent from API keys instead of hardcoding (#336)
• Kimi CLI integration with stdin piping and output parsing (#336)
• MarketplacePublisher — publish skills to Claude Code plugin marketplace repos (#336)
• MarketplaceManager — register and manage marketplace repositories (#336)
• ConfigPublisher — push configs to registered config source repos (#336)
• push_config MCP tool for automated config publishing (#336)
• Smart SPA discovery engine — three-layer discovery: sitemap.xml, llms.txt, SPA nav rendering (#336)
• "browser": true config support for JavaScript SPA sites with browser renderer timeout defaults (60s, domcontentloaded) (#336)
• Dynamic routing via _build_argv() — replaced manual arg forwarding with dynamic forwarder, added 7 missing CLI flags (#336)
• Kotlin language support for codebase analysis — Full C3.x pipeline support: AST parsing (classes, objects, functions, data/sealed classes, extension functions, coroutines), dependency extraction, design pattern recognition (object declaration→Singleton, companion object→Factory, sealed class→Strategy), test example extraction (JUnit, Kotest, MockK, Spek), language detection patterns, config detection (build.gradle.kts), and extension maps across all analyzers (#287)
• Headless browser rendering (--browser flag) — uses Playwright to render JavaScript SPA sites (React, Vue, etc.) that return empty HTML shells. Auto-installs Chromium on first use. Optional dep: pip install "skill-seekers[browser]" (#321)
• skill-seekers doctor command — 8 diagnostic checks (Python version, package install, git, core/optional deps, API keys, MCP server, output dir) with pass/warn/fail status and --verbose flag (#316)
• Prompt injection check workflow — bundled prompt-injection-check workflow scans scraped content for injection patterns (role assumption, instruction overrides, delimiter injection, hidden instructions). Added as first stage in default and security-focus workflows. Flags suspicious content without removing it (#324)
• Codex CLI plugin manifest (.codex-plugin/plugin.json) for OpenAI Codex integration (#350)
• 6 behavioral UML diagrams — 3 sequence (create pipeline, GitHub+C3.x flow, MCP invocation), 2 activity (source detection, enhancement pipeline), 1 component (runtime dependencies with interface contracts)
• 134 new tests — test_agent_client.py, test_config_publisher.py, _build_argv tests. Total: 3194 passed, 39 expected skips (#336)

Changed

• All content extraction features enabled by default — pattern detection, test examples, how-to guides, config extraction, and router generation no longer require explicit opt-in
• Renamed claude-enhanced merge mode to ai-enhanced — backward compatibility alias kept (#336)
• Removed 118+ hardcoded Claude references across 60+ files (#336)
• Refactored 5 enhancers to use AgentClient abstraction (#336)
• Removed 50-file GitHub API analysis limit (#336)
• Removed 100-file config extraction limit (#336)
• Fixed unified scraper default max_pages from 100 to 500 (#336)
• Centralized enhancement timeouts to 45min default with unlimited support (#336)
• Excluded slow MCP/e2e tests from CI coverage step to prevent timeout

Fixed

• glob('*.md') replaced with rglob('*.md') in all adaptors — fixes packaging when skills are in nested directories (#349)
• scraped_data list-vs-dict bug in conflict detection (#336)
• base_url passthrough to doc scraper subprocess (#336)
• URL filtering now uses base directory correctly (#336)
• C3.x analysis data loss (#336)
• --enhance-level flag not passed correctly (#336)
• guide_enhancer method rename — _call_claude_api renamed to _call_ai (#336)
• 11 pre-existing test failures fixed (#336)
• Per-file language detection in GitHub scraper (#336)
• GitHub language detection crashes with TypeError when API response contains non-integer metadata keys (e.g., "url") — now filters to integer values only (#322)
• C3.x codebase analysis crashes with TypeError — _run_c3_analysis() and _analyze_c3x() passed removed enhance_with_ai/ai_mode kwargs to analyze_codebase() instead of enhance_level (#323)

Security

• Removed command injection via cloned repo script execution (#336)
• Replaced git add -A with targeted staging in marketplace publisher (#336)
• Clear auth tokens from cached .git/config after clone (#336)
• Use defusedxml for sitemap XML parsing (XXE protection) (#336)
