Add stdlib-only Python script implementing the 13-step backport workflow. SKILL.md files now invoke the script instead of listing individual commands, keeping only conflict resolution logic in the agent layer. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- Replace manual overlays clone/edit with GitHub Actions workflow trigger (update-plugins-repo-refs.yaml) for step 11 - Fetch source.json via GitHub API instead of cloning overlays repo (step 4) - Fix --mode create help text (steps 1-7, not 1-8) - Update SKILL.md files: remove overlays fork prerequisite, fix step descriptions for PR creation order and overlays workflow - Rewrite overlays-update.md reference to document workflow-based approach - Improve poll_publish_result to parse actual bot comment patterns Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

1. Concurrent backport race condition
The
workspace/{plugin}branch is shared across all releases. If two people backport the same plugin to different releases simultaneously (e.g., 1.9 and 1.10), the second workspace reset clobbers the first. Waiting for team guidance on approach (release-scoped branches, locking, etc.).2. Branch pre-creation for new plugins/releases
workspace/{plugin}and{plugin}/release-x.ybranches may not exist for new plugins or new release versions. Need clarification on whether the skill should create them or if they must be pre-created manually.Test plan
