New authoring tooling and a fix for the doc-regeneration defect it exposed.
Added:
- src/kaizen_agentic/agent_docs.py — render + idempotent upsert of the
CLAUDE.md "## Installed Agents" section (shared by installer and CLI)
- `kaizen-agentic docs generate [--check]` — idempotent doc refresh / CI gate
- `kaizen-agentic create-agent` — scaffold a schema-valid agent
- Frontmatter schema validation in `kaizen-agentic validate`
(required name/description/category, known category, valid memory/model)
- tests: test_agent_docs, test_validate_schema, test_create_agent
Fixed:
- _update_documentation regex duplicated the Installed Agents block on every
run (stopped at the first ### subheading) — now idempotent
- declared frontmatter `category` is authoritative (heuristic is fallback)
- list_installed_agents reads the frontmatter name, not the filename
- renamed agent-project-management.md -> agent-project-assistant.md to satisfy
the agent-<name>.md convention (eliminates a name/filename collision that
caused install/update to write a divergent duplicate)
- test_cli_error_handling no longer installs into the repo root (uses tmp)
Version 1.4.0; CHANGELOG, CLI cheat sheet, agency-framework, TODO updated.
Workplan KAIZEN-WP-0007 closed.

MAKEFILE TARGET RENAMING:
- Renamed agent management targets to use agents- prefix for consistency
- list-agents → agents-list
- update-agents → agents-update
- validate-agents → agents-validate
- agent-status → agents-status
- install-agent-cli → agents-install-cli
- Updated all documentation to reflect new naming convention
TEST FIXES:
- Fixed backup directory collision in tests by adding microseconds and counter
- Improved dependency detection to be more precise and avoid false positives
- Updated dependency parsing to support YAML frontmatter dependencies
- Fixed test expectations to match actual validation behavior
- All 24 tests now passing
DEPENDENCY SYSTEM IMPROVEMENTS:
- Enhanced dependency extraction from YAML frontmatter (dependencies, depends_on, requires)
- More precise agent reference detection in content
- Better handling of explicit vs implicit dependencies
- Improved validation error reporting
This ensures consistent naming convention (setup-, standards-, agents-) across
all Makefile targets while fixing test reliability issues.

Complete implementation of the agent distribution framework including:
CORE INFRASTRUCTURE:
- AgentRegistry: Agent discovery, categorization, and dependency management
- AgentInstaller: Agent installation, updates, and removal with safety measures
- ProjectInitializer: Template-based project initialization with agent integration
- CLI Tool: Comprehensive kaizen-agentic command-line interface
DISTRIBUTION FEATURES:
- Python package distribution with console script entry point
- Agent categorization (project-management, development-process, code-quality, etc.)
- Project templates (python-basic, python-web, python-cli, python-data, comprehensive)
- Dependency resolution and validation
- Idempotent operations with backup and rollback support
CLI COMMANDS:
- kaizen-agentic init: Initialize new projects with agents
- kaizen-agentic install/update/remove: Manage agents in existing projects
- kaizen-agentic list/status/validate: Discovery and maintenance
- kaizen-agentic templates: Project template management
INTEGRATION & DOCUMENTATION:
- Makefile targets for agent management (list-agents, update-agents, etc.)
- Automatic Claude Code configuration updates (CLAUDE.md)
- Comprehensive documentation (GETTING_STARTED, AGENT_DISTRIBUTION, CLI_CHEAT_SHEET)
- Multi-language build system integration examples
- Complete test coverage for all components
PACKAGE STRUCTURE:
- Console script: kaizen-agentic command available globally
- Package data: All agents included for distribution
- Dependencies: click, pyyaml for CLI and parsing
- Testing: Comprehensive test suite for registry and installer
This enables sharing specialized AI agents across projects with easy installation,
updates, and management through both CLI and integrated Makefile targets.
