Will this overwrite my manual customizations in the ported files?

The skill uses classified update logic (structural vs cosmetic) to apply changes intelligently, though it is always recommended to review the diffs during the final Output & Refresh phase.

Can I update just the platform logic without touching source changes?

Yes, you can use the --platform-only flag to focus specifically on platform adapter drift while ignoring any changes made to the original source plugin.

What if my MIGRATION-GUIDE.md is missing metadata?

The skill includes a reconstruction phase that scans your output directory and git history to attempt to rebuild the metadata baseline automatically.

How does the skill identify what needs to be updated?

It parses a PORT-METADATA block in your MIGRATION-GUIDE.md to find the original source commit, then performs a git diff to identify changes in the source and cross-references them with platform adapter versions.

Developer Tools

Synchronizes and updates ported plugins by detecting source changes and platform evolution using embedded migration metadata.

The update-ported-plugin skill is a specialized utility designed to maintain the health of ported agentic tools within the Agent Alchemy ecosystem. It eliminates the need for manual re-porting by reading embedded PORT-METADATA to establish a baseline, then automatically detecting differences in source code and drift in target platform adapters. By classifying changes as structural, content-based, or cosmetic, it applies targeted, incremental updates that ensure your plugins stay current with upstream improvements and evolving platform specifications while preserving your previous migration work.

Key Features

01Metadata reconstruction for migration guides with missing or malformed blocks

0222 GitHub stars

03Platform drift analysis to identify stale, missing, or breaking adapter mappings

04Automated source change detection using git diff and metadata baselines

05Classification of updates into structural, content, and cosmetic categories

06Incremental file updates that prevent full re-porting workflows

Use Cases

01Updating existing plugin ports to align with a newly released version of a target platform adapter

02Synchronizing a ported tool after the original source repository receives a bug fix or feature update

03Auditing a directory of ported plugins to identify which tools require maintenance due to source or platform drift
