From 752fda3b57c748cf6b614e4cc13cd8da033af94d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Nick Bradley Date: Fri, 23 Oct 2026 12:41:21 +0100 Subject: [PATCH 01/12] Add a version check to every skill Each SKILL.md now has a short "check this skill is current" section under its H1. The agent fetches the docs site's skills index once per conversation and compares the published version with the installed one. It mentions an update only when the index has a newer version, and never runs it itself. The request carries analytics query parameters (skill, version, surface, model, purpose, and the cloud name if the agent already has it from the conversation or code). - templates/version-check.md is the single source for the block - scripts/check-version-block.sh renders it into each skill (--fix) or checks it - New CI job fails on a missing, edited, or misplaced block - README discloses what's sent and how to turn the check off - CONTRIBUTING covers editing the block and rerunning --fix after a version bump - Minor version bump for all four skills --- .github/workflows/skills-discovery.yml | 7 +++ CONTRIBUTING.md | 20 ++++++-- README.md | 17 +++++++ scripts/check-version-block.sh | 51 +++++++++++++++++++ skills/frameworks/cloudinary-next/SKILL.md | 27 +++++++++- skills/frameworks/cloudinary-react/SKILL.md | 27 +++++++++- skills/platform/cloudinary-docs/SKILL.md | 29 ++++++++++- .../cloudinary-transformations/SKILL.md | 27 +++++++++- templates/version-check.md | 24 +++++++++ 9 files changed, 220 insertions(+), 9 deletions(-) create mode 100755 scripts/check-version-block.sh create mode 100644 templates/version-check.md diff --git a/.github/workflows/skills-discovery.yml b/.github/workflows/skills-discovery.yml index 30d8b82..3ce8642 100644 --- a/.github/workflows/skills-discovery.yml +++ b/.github/workflows/skills-discovery.yml @@ -21,6 +21,13 @@ jobs: - uses: actions/checkout@v4 - run: scripts/check-links.sh + version-check-block: + name: Every SKILL.md carries the version-check block + runs-on: ubuntu-latest + steps: + - uses: actions/checkout@v4 + - run: scripts/check-version-block.sh + versions: name: Changed skills bump their version if: github.event_name == 'pull_request' diff --git a/CONTRIBUTING.md b/CONTRIBUTING.md index 9e2aa71..ab63279 100644 --- a/CONTRIBUTING.md +++ b/CONTRIBUTING.md @@ -92,6 +92,17 @@ attributable.
