Description

My skill hippocampus-memory was soft-deleted after attempting to update the name field in SKILL.md frontmatter. The skill had 800+ downloads.

Timeline

  • Jan 31: Skill created as hippocampus-memory (slug), displayed as "Hippocampus"
  • Feb 5 ~12:00: Changed name: hippocampusname: hippocampus-memory and added title field
  • Feb 5 ~12:15: Skill disappeared from search, explore, and direct URL
  • Feb 5 ~12:20: Tried reverting to original name and re-uploading via web UI — "Server Error Called by client"
  • Feb 5 ~12:27: Multiple CLI publishes (v3.8.2 through v3.8.5) returned "OK" but skill remained invisible
  • Feb 5 ~21:15: clawhub undelete hippocampus-memory --yes restored the skill

Skill is now back at v3.8.5 with latest tag.

Environment

Used clawhub undelete hippocampus-memory --yes and the skill is back.

Status: Live
Version: 3.8.5 (latest)
Security scan: 0/76 engines (clean)

The root cause seems related to #148 — skills getting soft-deleted after version updates. Leaving this for reference in case it helps others or the team investigating the pattern.

Thanks! 🦞
