artifact-plugin 2.0.5

Core artifact primitive for the cjhowe-us/artifact-plugin Claude Code plugin ecosystem.

artifact

Core artifact primitive for the cjhowe-us/artifact-plugin ecosystem. Ships:

• Scheme kinds — vertex, edge, metadata. Every scheme declares one.
• Core schemes — artifact-template, pydantic-schema, preferences, conversation, notifications. Plus nine edge-kind schemes (composed_of, depends_on, validates, references, mentions, supersedes, cites, bundled_in, closes) via a shared factory. Plus metadata-kind schemes (authors, tags, status).
• Core storages — file (git worktree), user-config, session-memory, os-notifications.
• Generic mediator — validates every subcommand's inputs and outputs via pydantic, dispatches to storages.
• Jinja templating — .jinja.* file naming convention drives rendering via artifactlib.render.
• Graph — every edge is an artifact; graph.py is a thin wrapper over list with relation + endpoint filters.
• /artifact skill — user entry point.

Zero runtime deps besides Python 3.11+, pydantic>=2, tomlkit>=0.13, jinja2>=3.1. Cross-platform.

URI format

<scheme>|<storage>/<path>

Examples:

• document|file/docs/design/auth — a document vertex stored as docs/design/auth.md + .content.toml.
• composed_of|file/<source-slug>--<target-slug> — an edge artifact JSON.
• preferences|user-config/user — the user's preferences bundle.

Prerequisites

Python 3.11+ with pydantic>=2, tomlkit>=0.13, jinja2>=3.1. git on PATH.
