Scan Plugins is meant to gate every change to marketplace.json, but two
gaps made that unenforceable:
1. The bump workflow opens PRs with GITHUB_TOKEN, which GitHub exempts
from on:pull_request triggers. Weekly bump PRs (e.g. #1809) get no
scan check at all.
2. The workflow had a paths filter, so a required-check ruleset for
`scan` would block every PR that doesn't touch marketplace.json
(no check run = pending forever).
Fixes:
scan-plugins.yml
- Drop the paths filter; replace with a step-level `git diff --quiet`
early-exit on the same paths. The check now reports on every PR,
which makes it safe to require.
- Fail closed when ANTHROPIC_API_KEY is unset and a scan is needed.
The shared action no-ops gracefully in that case (right default for
community repos), but a required check that silently does nothing is
a rubber stamp.
bump-plugin-shas.yml
- After the action opens the bump PR, `gh workflow run scan-plugins.yml
--ref bump/plugin-shas`. workflow_dispatch is exempt from the
GITHUB_TOKEN recursion guard, and the resulting check run lands on
the branch HEAD (= PR head), so it satisfies the required check.
- Add `actions: write` so the dispatch is allowed.
Follow-up: add a repo ruleset on main requiring the `scan` check
(integration: github-actions) once this merges.
The pinned version of anthropics/claude-plugins-community's
bump-plugin-shas action creates the bump commit with a local git commit,
which is unsigned and unmergeable under the required_signatures ruleset
on main. The new SHA creates the commit via the GraphQL
createCommitOnBranch mutation, which GitHub signs server-side, so weekly
bump PRs (e.g. #1809) become mergeable.
* Adopt validate-plugins action suite; pin all external SHAs
Replaces the hand-rolled marketplace validator and bot-based bump
workflow with the shared composite actions (pinned at f846a0b).
marketplace.json:
- 62 external entries that were missing a `sha` are now pinned to
their current upstream HEAD (resolved via git ls-remote).
Workflows:
- validate-plugins.yml: invariants I1-I11 + claude plugin validate +
diff-gated clone-at-SHA validation of changed external entries.
SHA-pin (I5) is a hard error. I8/I11 stay warnings until the 15
known data issues (vendored dirs without manifests; one dotted
name) are cleaned up.
- bump-plugin-shas.yml: bot-free weekly refresh. Validates each new
SHA with claude plugin validate before opening one PR; works with
the default GITHUB_TOKEN (contents:write + pull-requests:write).
- scan-plugins.yml: Claude policy scan of changed external entries.
Non-blocking; graceful no-op if ANTHROPIC_API_KEY isn't set.
Removed:
- validate-marketplace.yml + the two TS helper scripts (superseded
by step 11/20 of validate-plugins).
validate-frontmatter.yml is kept — it's complementary (targeted
checks on agent/skill/command files for in-repo plugins).
* Remove 5 external entries that fail validation at HEAD
Step 30 (clone at pinned SHA + claude plugin validate) fails for
these at their current HEAD:
aiven Unrecognized key "logo" in plugin.json
atlassian-forge-skills skill YAML frontmatter parse error
sagemaker-ai skill YAML frontmatter parse error
speakai no plugin manifest at repo root
stagehand no plugin manifest at repo root
These can be re-added once the upstream repos are fixed.
* Wire scan-plugins to the detailed policy prompt
Adds .github/policy/prompt.md and schema.json (the full security
review rubric — malicious code, privacy, deception, safety
circumvention, exfiltration; plus network-call and software-install
flags) and points scan-plugins at it via the policy-prompt input.
With ANTHROPIC_API_KEY now configured on the repo, scan-plugins runs
the actual policy review on changed external entries instead of
no-op'ing.
* Bump scan-plugins action pin to include L11/L12 fixes
* Add auto-SHA-bump workflow for marketplace plugins
Weekly CI action that discovers stale SHA pins in marketplace.json
and opens a batched PR with updated SHAs. Adapted from the
claude-plugins-community-internal bump-plugin-shas workflow for
the single-file marketplace.json format.
- discover_bumps.py: checks 56 SHA-pinned plugins against upstream
repos, oldest-stale-first rotation, capped at 20 bumps/run
- bump-plugin-shas.yml: weekly Monday schedule + manual dispatch
with dry_run and per-plugin targeting options
Entries without SHA pins (intentionally tracking HEAD) are never
touched. Existing validate-marketplace CI runs on the resulting PR.

* Fix input interpolation and add BASE_BRANCH overlay
- Pass workflow_dispatch inputs through env vars instead of direct
${{ inputs.* }} interpolation in run blocks (avoids shell injection)
- Add marketplace.json overlay from main so the workflow can be tested
via dispatch from a feature branch against main's real plugin data
Both patterns match claude-plugins-community-internal's implementation.

* Use GitHub App token for PR creation
The anthropics org disables "Allow GitHub Actions to create and approve
pull requests", so GITHUB_TOKEN cannot call gh pr create. Split the
workflow: GITHUB_TOKEN pushes the branch, then the same GitHub App
used by -internal's bump workflow (app-id 2812036) creates the PR.
Prerequisite: app must be installed on this repo and the PEM secret
(CLAUDE_DIRECTORY_BOT_PRIVATE_KEY) must exist in repo settings.

* Use --force-with-lease for bump branch push
Prevents push failure if the branch exists from a previous same-day
run whose PR was merged but whose branch wasn't auto-deleted.
