Patch release rolling up two content updates that just landed:
- ai-seo (#313): aligned with Google's official AI features optimization
guide — Google's stance, query fan-out, agentic experiences (UCP),
what-not-to-do, Search Console expectations; reframed
llms.txt/pricing.md/schema as "not required by Google but helpful for
non-Google AI engines"; moved content-type tactics to
references/content-types.md
- image (#311): refreshed model lineup to current May 2026 releases —
Nano Banana family, Flux Pro 1.1 + Kontext, Ideogram 3.0, ChatGPT
Images 2.0, Midjourney v7, Recraft V3, SD 3.5 / SDXL
- video (#311): refreshed model lineup — Sora 2 promoted from
limited-availability caveat, Kling 2.5/3.0, added Seedance, Hailuo /
MiniMax, Hunyuan Video / Wan 2, Pika 2.x; new "Quick picks" guide
No new skills, no breaking changes. Only the three affected SKILL.md
files bumped to 2.0.1; the other 37 stay at 2.0.0.
- marketplace.json: 2.0.0 → 2.0.1
- VERSIONS.md: ai-seo, image, video rows bumped; 2.0.1 changelog entry
added
- skills/{ai-seo,image,video}/SKILL.md: metadata.version → 2.0.1
All 40 skills pass validation. sync-skills.js still no-op.

* feat: v2.0 skill renames and CRO consolidation
BREAKING CHANGE: Users must reinstall skills after this update.
## Skill Renames (16)
- ab-test-setup → ab-testing
- analytics-tracking → analytics
- aso-audit → aso
- competitor-alternatives → competitors
- email-sequence → emails
- free-tool-strategy → free-tools
- launch-strategy → launch
- onboarding-cro → onboarding
- paywall-upgrade-cro → paywalls
- popup-cro → popups
- pricing-strategy → pricing
- product-marketing-context → product-marketing
- referral-program → referrals
- schema-markup → schema
- signup-flow-cro → signup
- social-content → social
## Consolidations (1)
- page-cro + form-cro → cro (form content in references/form.md)
## Why 2.0?
- Shorter, cleaner skill names
- Consistent naming (no -strategy, -setup, -cro suffixes)
- All cross-references updated across 100+ files
Total skills: 40

* fix(v2.0): update evals for renamed skills, fix validate script, clear warnings
- Update 32 evals.json files to reference new skill names (page-cro → cro,
product-marketing-context → product-marketing, etc.) — these were missed
in the initial v2.0 rename pass since only SKILL.md and marketplace.json
were updated.
- Fix validate-skills.sh: replace GNU-only `head -n -1` with portable awk
so frontmatter extraction works on macOS.
- Move Copy Editing Checklist (56 lines) to references/checklist.md to
bring copy-editing SKILL.md under the 500-line limit (508 → 457).
- Add "see X" pointers to marketing-psychology description for skill
discovery (cro, pricing, copywriting).
- Update skill-request.yml issue template placeholder (page-cro → cro).
All 40 skills now pass validation with zero warnings.
* fix(v2.0): add evals for 8 missing skills, strip stale frontmatter from cro/form.md
Adds 48 new eval cases (6 per skill) for skills that previously had no evals:
aso, co-marketing, community-marketing, competitor-profiling, directory-submissions,
image, lead-magnets, video. All 40 skills now have eval coverage (251 total cases).
Strips leftover frontmatter from skills/cro/references/form.md — it was inherited
from the old form-cro SKILL.md before consolidation. Reference files don't need
frontmatter.

* fix(v2.0): rename paid-ads → ads
One more v2.0 simplification — drops the redundant 'paid-' qualifier. Updates
the skill directory, SKILL.md frontmatter, evals.json, README skill table, the
v2.0 rename table in VERSIONS.md (now 17 renames), and all cross-references in
related skills (ad-creative, aso, competitor-profiling, customer-research,
lead-magnets, marketing-ideas) plus the tools/integrations guides.

* fix(v2.0): bump SKILL.md frontmatter version to 2.0.0 for all 40 skills
VERSIONS.md was already updated to 2.0.0 but the metadata.version field inside
each SKILL.md was still on 1.x. That mismatch would have caused the update-check
flow to perpetually report 'update available' since it compares VERSIONS.md
against local SKILL.md metadata versions.
Caught by codex review (P1).

* fix(v2.0): add legacy product-marketing-context.md filename fallback
Before this fix, users upgrading from v1.x who had a `product-marketing-context.md`
file would lose automatic context loading — every skill only checked the new
`product-marketing.md` filename. Now all 40 skills also accept the legacy
filename (in either `.agents/` or `.claude/`), and the README migration command
covers both legacy and current filenames.
Caught by codex review (P1 + P2).

* fix(v2.0): re-sort README skills table alphabetically, fix ads box width
The skills table had a few entries out of alphabetical order from the renames
(co-marketing was after cold-email, ads was at the renamed position).
Re-sorted alphabetically per sync-skills.js. Also padded the 'ads' cell in the
ASCII flow diagram to keep the box width consistent.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* fix(v2.0): document folder cleanup on upgrade, stop sync-skills from re-adding skills array
README upgrade guide now includes:
- A clear cleanup step for stale v1.x skill folders (renamed + consolidated) so
users don't end up with both old and new folders side-by-side after upgrading
- The full v1 to v2 rename map for reference
- Existing product-marketing-context.md migration steps (preserved)
sync-skills.js no longer (re-)introduces a `skills` array on marketplace.json --
Claude Code's plugin schema discovers skills via the `skills/` directory, and the
explicit array was failing validation. The script now refreshes the description
count and strips the stale array if present.
