ki-repo-homebrew-taplisted

Codify, audit, and scaffold the Knowledge Islands Homebrew tap — the `homebrew-<x>` distribution repo that holds `Formula/*.rb` for Knowledge Islands command-line tools. This skill WRAPS Homebrew's external standard (the Formula Cookbook + `brew audit`/`brew style`) rather than inventing a house one: it checks the tap's shape (a `Formula/` dir, one formula per tool, the README formulae table, a versioned-tarball source) and reports the explicit `brew` checks required for formula correctness. Use when auditing the tap, adding a formula, scaffolding a new tap, or refreshing against Homebrew's rules. Triggers: "audit the homebrew tap", "add a formula", "does the tap follow Homebrew's standard", "scaffold a homebrew tap", "is this formula valid", "refresh the homebrew-tap standard". Governs the tap **container** — the repo shape and the formula shape — not the tools themselves (for a `tools-*` CLI repo use `ki-repo-tools`) nor the repo's GitHub settings and standard files (for those use `ki-repo`).

# Knowledge Islands Homebrew tap standard You are helping audit, conform, or scaffold the **Homebrew tap** repo — `homebrew-tap` under `knowledgeislands/`, the distribution repo that carries `Formula/*.rb` so `brew install knowledgeislands/tap/<tool>` resolves. The tools whose formulae live here are governed by the sibling `ki-repo-tools` skill; this skill governs the **tap** and the **formulae inside it**. This skill **wraps an external standard.** Homebrew already defines what a valid tap and formula are (the Formula Cookbook, `brew audit`, `brew style`); this skill does not re-invent that. Its hosted audit checks only the tap's **static shape**—the things a tap needs beyond a single valid formula. `brew style` and `brew audit --strict` are explicit, isolated opt-in diagnostics, never hosted-audit execution. A static finding is source-shape evidence, not package-manager validation. Never present a shape preference as a Homebrew "MUST"; when unsure which a rule is, run Mode REFRESH against the Cookbook. The full, quotable standard lives in [Homebrew tap standard](references/standards-homebrew-tap.md); the line-by-line pass/fail items in [Audit Rubric](references/rubric.md). `ki repo audit` and `ki repo conform` execute the mechanical contract. Read those when you need detail; this file is the operating procedure. ## The canonical shape at a glance ```text homebrew-tap/ # named homebrew-<x> — Homebrew requires the prefix for `brew tap <owner>/<x>` ├── Formula/
