Ki Binding Claude

Codify, audit, and safely conform Claude-native MCP binding: Claude Code and Desktop JSON surfaces, Claude Cowork marketplace/plugin enablement, the claude.ai web convention, and the KI Cowork plugin projection. Use when Claude MCP surfaces disagree, Cowork lacks the KI plugin, or the Cowork plugin must be rebuilt. The portable source belongs to `ki-binding`; Codex belongs to `ki-binding-codex`.

Knowledge Islands Claude binding

This runtime adapter composes ki-binding and owns the Claude-specific delta: Claude Code and Desktop JSON definition comparison, Cowork registration evidence, the intentionally non-rendered claude.ai web convention, and generation of the Cowork plugin marketplace projection. Source projection, registration, installation, activation, and runtime health are reported separately.

Operating modes

Mode AUDIT

Run ki repo audit --skill ki-binding-claude --repo <project>. The host resolves and runs the declared ki-binding prerequisite first; the adapter then reports Code/Desktop evidence and Cowork plugin drift. Web has no local configuration and is a judgment-only convention.

Mode CONFORM

Run AUDIT first. Cowork settings are report-only until product-specific external-edit and next-launch authority is recorded. Rebuild the marketplace plugin with bun run ki:binding:claude:build-plugin <ki-repo-plugins-checkout>; it is a projection, never hand-maintained. This skill's exact package-script claim is limited to that builder command. Registration, installation, activation, and runtime health require separate authorised evidence.

Mode EDUCATE

Explain the Claude-only surface contract without creating a second MCP source.

Mode REFRESH

Refresh only in ki-agentic-harness when Claude's JSON, Cowork settings, web convention, or plugin manifest contracts change. From an installed copy, stop and redirect to the canonical harness.

Mode HELP

Explain this Claude adapter boundary and stop without changing anything.
