Summary

  • Incorporates the API Framework migration pilot findings into the internal-package migration workflow.
  • Requires agents to verify lockfile-resolved dependency versions because pnpm overrides can supersede named catalogs without changing package.json.
  • Adds the repository formatting gate and keeps mechanical formatting separate from the exact subtree import.
  • Protects history-import PRs with a [Don't merge] title, a prominent warning and copyable guarded merge instructions containing the real PR number and source split SHA.
  • Adds a contributor guide under docs/contributing/ covering how to invoke the skill, its expected PRs, the automated preparation, human administrator merge checkpoint, automated continuation, and recovery paths.

Integration note

This PR expects #30522 to land first because the migration workflow uses the renamed pnpm bootstrap repository command.

Testing

  • pnpm lint:agent-skills
  • pnpm exec oxfmt --check .agents/skills/migrate-internal-package/SKILL.md .agents/skills/migrate-internal-package/references/*.md
  • pnpm exec markdownlint-cli2 --config .markdownlint-cli2.jsonc .agents/skills/migrate-internal-package/SKILL.md .agents/skills/migrate-internal-package/references/*.md
  • pnpm exec remark --use remark-validate-links --frail --quiet --no-stdout .agents/skills/migrate-internal-package/SKILL.md .agents/skills/migrate-internal-package/references/*.md

Prevent normal squash or rebase merges from discarding imported package ancestry by requiring a warning title, a prominent PR notice, and copyable guarded merge instructions in every handoff.
no ref\n\nKeep the migration workflow aligned with the repository bootstrap rename so it cannot invoke pnpm's shell-configuration command by accident.

Walkthrough

The migration skill now links to a dedicated migration guide. It adds workspace, submodule, blame-ignore, lockfile, formatting, archive, and record checks. The workflow preserves source dependency versions with scoped overrides when required. Migration pull requests must retain [Don't merge] protection. Merge handoffs now require actual commands, a dry run, prohibited squash or rebase controls, and separate authorization. The contributor documentation describes the complete migration procedure.

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to e4201

The migration workflow adds important safeguards, but ambiguous handoff commands or a confirmation not demonstrably tied to the reviewed PR head could allow an administrator to merge unreviewed history. Resolve the documented handoff discrepancies before merging.

Make the handoff commands executable or label them as templates.

Lines 42-43 require commands with no placeholders, but both examples contain <pr-number> and <full-source-split-sha>. Copying either block literally is not a valid shell command. Render the recorded values into the handoff PR, or state that these blocks are templates and require replacement before execution.

no ref\n\nMake the workflow discoverable to engineers starting from the codebase documentation and frame it around moving an SDK or framework package, the skill's expected output, and the exceptional merge process.
no ref\n\nAutomate package preparation and read-only validation while reserving the temporary repository setting change and exceptional merge for an explicitly identified human administrator.
no ref\n\nKeep the package migration automation available to every contributor while isolating repository administration permission to the short history-preserving merge handoff.

The administrator merge checkpoint must operate on the exact PR head the contributor reviewed, and imported legacy files need the repository formatter applied before its formatting gates are checked.
