Follow-up to #1074 (issue #1070), found by the develop -> main promotion PR (#1077)'s own review.

Copilot sharpened Qodo's earlier ambiguity finding on the same line: the closing-reference sentence sat inside the fenced subagent-brief template with no field-name prefix, unlike the template's other five fields (Task/Paths/Rules that bind this task/Return/Bounds), so it read as literal content handed to the subagent rather than an instruction to whoever assembles the brief — and the subagent has no access to AGENTS.md to resolve it.

Fix: gave it its own Close: field, phrased the same way line 45 already resolves the identical pattern (inserting canonical content into the prompt at assembly time rather than restating it): quote X into the prompt.

Ran local-strict-review against this branch's diff before pushing; no blocking findings (one purely stylistic comma-splice nit, not a rule violation, left as-is).

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Documentation
    • Updated review guidance to require quoting the exact unresolved-rule closing line, “Context and Delegation Discipline,” rather than referring to it indirectly.
    • Synchronized the same instruction across all distributed review guidance.
    • Refreshed associated source metadata to reflect the updated guidance.

AI Description

• Adds an explicit Close field for injecting the canonical unresolved-rule line.
• Prevents assemblers from treating the closing instruction as literal subagent content.
• Synchronizes distributed skill copies and the Claude plugin source digest.

High-Level Assessment

The chosen approach is optimal: naming the line Close makes its assembly-time role consistent with the surrounding fields, while referencing canonical AGENTS.md text avoids duplicating policy that could drift. Synchronizing both distributed copies and the digest preserves packaging consistency.

🟢 Approval recommended

The change is a small, consistent documentation/template clarification applied uniformly across the canonical source and its generated mirrors.

Pull request overview

Clarifies the local-strict-review subagent-brief template by giving the closing-reference instruction its own explicit Close: field, making it consistent with the other template fields and reducing ambiguity about what is literal brief content versus assembler-time guidance.

Changes:

  • Replaces the prior unkeyed closing-reference sentence with a dedicated Close: field instructing the assembler to quote the canonical unresolved-rule closing line from AGENTS.md.
  • Applies the same change across the canonical skill source and both mirrored distributions, updating the fleet-skills source digest accordingly.

Follow-up to #1074/#1079 (issue #1070), found by the develop -> main
promotion PR (#1077)'s second review round.
Copilot flagged the `Close:` field #1079 introduced as a non-canonical
key: `AGENTS.md`'s own template ("Context and Delegation Discipline")
has exactly 5 labeled fields (Task/Paths/Rules that bind this
task/Return/Bounds) followed by one unlabeled trailing sentence, not a
6th labeled field. `local-strict-review/SKILL.md`'s own "Running It"
section says to follow that exact shape.
Round 1 fix (commit 2778010): dropped the `Close:` label, went back to
an unlabeled trailing line in the same position `AGENTS.md`'s own
closing sentence occupies, kept #1079's "quote X into the prompt"
phrasing. A fresh Copilot round then flagged that this still read as an
imperative instruction addressed to the subagent, who cannot fulfil it
(no AGENTS.md access) - the same ambiguity #1079 had already addressed
once.
Round 2 fix (commit 2faa0e0, current): replaced the imperative sentence
with an explicit angle-bracket placeholder, matching `AGENTS.md`'s own
template syntax exactly (which uses `<...>` for every field value). This
is the second use of that convention in this file, not a new one -
`<target>` already appears the same way at line 40. Fails safe if pasted
unsubstituted: an obvious unfilled token rather than a misleading
instruction.
Ran `local-strict-review` against this branch's diff before each push,
explicitly asked to hunt for a reason a further round could still be
needed. Round 2's review: no confirmed defect, and a specific, honest
assessment of why this shape is unlikely to bounce again (matches an
established in-file convention, fails safe, closes every prior round's
concern simultaneously).
