9
+
10
+ ### Added
11
+
12
+ - **Auto-Update in Skill Creator**: `init_skill.py` now auto-runs `update_catalog.py` and `sync_docs.py` after creating a new skill.
13
+ - Default ON — use `--no-auto-update` to skip.
14
+ - New `--skills-dir` flag for specifying catalog update target directory.
15
+ - Non-fatal: graceful warnings if documentation skill is not installed.
16
+
17
+ ### Changed
18
+
19
+ - **NotebookLM MCP Skill**: Migrated to `PleasePrompto/notebooklm-mcp` browser-automated implementation with full auth, library management, and stealth mode support.
20
+ - **Skill Creator Documentation** (`SKILL_skillcreator.md`):
21
+ - Step 3: Documents new auto-update behavior and `--no-auto-update` / `--skills-dir` flags.
22
+ - Step 6: Notes that manual catalog update is now only needed for modifications/deletions.
23
+ - **SKILLS_CATALOG.md**: Regenerated with 45 public skills.
24
+
25
+ ### Fixed
26
+
27
+ - **`init_skill.py` argument parsing**: Migrated from fragile positional parsing (`sys.argv`) to robust `argparse` with proper help text and validation.
28
+ - **`sync_docs.py` invocation**: Fixed `--update-catalog` flag to pass `"true"` as required value (not just the bare flag).
29
+
30
+ ## [1.1.6] - 2026-02-07
31
+
32
+ ### Added
33
+
34
+ - **37 Knowledge Skills Promoted to Root**: All knowledge-pack skills now live at `skills/` root alongside core skills for unified access:
35
+ - `api-patterns`, `app-builder`, `architecture`, `bash-linux`, `behavioral-modes`, `brainstorming`, `clean-code`, `code-review-checklist`, `database-design`, `deployment-procedures`, `documentation-templates`, `frontend-design`, `game-development`, `geo-fundamentals`, `i18n-localization`, `intelligent-routing`, `lint-and-validate`, `mcp-builder`, `mobile-design`, `nextjs-best-practices`, `nodejs-best-practices`, `parallel-agents`, `performance-profiling`, `plan-writing`, `powershell-windows`, `python-patterns`, `react-patterns`, `red-team-tactics`, `seo-fundamentals`, `server-management`, `systematic-debugging`, `tailwind-patterns`, `tdd-workflow`, `testing-patterns`, `vulnerability-scanner`, `webapp-testing`.
36
+ - **NotebookLM MCP Skill**: New `notebooklm-mcp` skill to interact with Google NotebookLM via Model Context Protocol, with documentation, example script, and reference assets.
37
+ - **Opencode Support**: Added `OPENCODE.md` configuration file for Opencode editor compatibility with `opencode-antigravity-auth` plugin.
38
+ - **Execution Scripts**: Two new deterministic execution scripts:
39
+ - `memory_manager.py` — Centralized memory management for Qdrant operations.
40
+ - `session_init.py` — Session initialization and context bootstrapping.
41
+ - **Stitch Skills in Templates**: `design-md`, `react-components`, and `stitch-loop` now included in knowledge templates (`templates/skills/knowledge/`) for NPX distribution.
42
+ - **Self-Update in Templates**: `self-update` skill with `update_kit.py` added to knowledge templates.
43
+ - **Knowledge SKILLS_CATALOG**: New comprehensive `SKILLS_CATALOG.md` inside `templates/skills/knowledge/` for template-level skill discovery.
44
+
45
+ ### Changed
46
+
47
+ - **AGENTS.md**: Added "Getting Started" section with installation, dependency, and update instructions.
48
+ - **Memory Integration Directive**: Complete rewrite of `directives/memory_integration.md` — simplified from 211 lines to 95 lines with clearer goal/inputs/execution structure and Ollama embedding documentation.
49
+ - **Skill Creator**: Updated `SKILL_skillcreator.md` with refined skill creation guidelines.
50
+ - **SKILLS_CATALOG.md**: Expanded with 560+ lines of new skill entries covering all promoted knowledge skills.
51
+ - **Documentation Skill**: Updated `skills/documentation/SKILL.md` with improved detection and sync logic.
52
+ - **Template Hierarchy Restructured**: Shifted standalone template skills (`design-md`, `react-components`, `stitch-loop`) into `templates/skills/knowledge/` for consistent NPX packaging.
53
+
54
+ ### Improved
55
+
56
+ - **Core Skill Definitions**: Refined SKILL.md files across `pdf-reader`, `qdrant-memory`, and `webcrawler` with updated descriptions, triggers, and references.
57
+ - **Qdrant Memory Scripts**: Updated all 7 scripts (`benchmark_token_savings.py`, `embedding_utils.py`, `hybrid_search.py`, `init_collection.py`, `memory_retrieval.py`, `semantic_cache.py`, `test_skill.py`) with improved patterns.
58
+ - **Knowledge Skill Documentation**: Mass update of SKILL.md definitions across 36+ knowledge skills with enhanced frontmatter, triggers, and reference content in templates.
59
+ - **Audit Scripts**: Updated `ux_audit.py`, `security_scan.py`, `lighthouse_audit.py`, `test_runner.py`, `playwright_runner.py`, and `seo_checker.py` in templates.
60
+
61
+ ### Fixed
62
+
63
+ - **Version Bump**: Package version correctly set to `1.1.6` in `package.json`.
64
+ - **Template Cleanup**: Removed duplicate standalone Stitch skill templates (`templates/skills/design-md/`, `templates/skills/react-components/`, `templates/skills/stitch-loop/`), consolidated into `templates/skills/knowledge/`.
65
+ - **Removed `verify_public_release.py`**: Deprecated top-level verification script removed (functionality integrated into CI/CD pipeline).
