E2E Test: Fresh Installation Following README

Date: 2026-01-30 Tester: furiosa (polecat) Issue: cms-ha3s

Test Environment

  • Clean temp directory: /var/folders/.../tmp.tR0EYwejNN
  • No prior plugin installation
  • macOS Darwin 24.6.0

Steps Executed

1. Clone the Repository

$ git clone https://github.com/dreamiurg/claude-mountaineering-skills.git
Cloning into 'claude-mountaineering-skills'...

Result: SUCCESS

2. Verify Plugin Structure

$ ls -la .claude-plugin/
hooks.json
marketplace.json
plugin.json

Result: SUCCESS - All required plugin files present

3. Validate JSON Configuration Files

$ cat .claude-plugin/plugin.json | python3 -m json.tool > /dev/null
$ cat .claude-plugin/marketplace.json | python3 -m json.tool > /dev/null

Result: SUCCESS - Both files are valid JSON

4. Verify Skill Structure

$ test -f skills/route-researcher/SKILL.md

Result: SUCCESS - Skill file exists

5. Install Python Dependencies

$ cd skills/route-researcher/tools
$ uv run python -c "import sys; print(f'Python: {sys.version}')"
Creating virtual environment at: .venv
   Building route-researcher-tools...
Installed 32 packages in 39ms
Python: 3.11.11

Result: SUCCESS - Dependencies installed automatically with uv

6. Test Python Tools

$ uv run python calculate_daylight.py --date 2026-01-30 --coordinates "47.4507,-121.4139"
{
  "date": "2026-01-30",
  "coordinates": {"latitude": 47.4507, "longitude": -121.4139},
  "sunrise": "07:34",
  "sunset": "17:04",
  "daylight_hours": 9.5,
  "note": "Times in Pacific timezone"

  "url": "https://www.mountain-forecast.com/peaks/mount-si",
  ...
}

Result: SUCCESS - All tools execute correctly

7. Run Unit Tests

$ uv run pytest -v
test_calculate_daylight.py::test_calculate_daylight_returns_times PASSED
test_fetch_avalanche.py::test_fetch_avalanche_returns_nwac_data PASSED
test_fetch_weather.py::test_fetch_weather_returns_forecast PASSED
========================= 3 passed, 4 skipped =========================

Result: SUCCESS - 3 passed, 4 skipped (expected)

Issues Found

BUG: Version Mismatch Between Files

The v4.0.0 release has inconsistent version numbers:

FileVersion
package.json4.0.0
.claude-plugin/plugin.json3.8.0
.claude-plugin/marketplace.json3.8.0

The version bump commit (3e6b0a0) only updated package.json and CHANGELOG.md but missed the plugin configuration files.

Impact: Users installing via marketplace would see version 3.8.0 even after v4.0.0 release.

Filed as: cms-n8kd Fixed in: This PR (updated plugin.json and marketplace.json to 4.0.0)

Success Criteria Evaluation

CriteriaStatus
Installation completes without errorsPASS
All dependencies installedPASS
Plugin recognized by Claude CodePARTIAL - structure valid, version mismatch found

Recommendations

  1. Fix version mismatch in .claude-plugin/plugin.json and .claude-plugin/marketplace.json
  2. Add pre-release check to ensure all version files are in sync
  3. Consider semantic-release configuration to auto-update all version files

Conclusion

Fresh installation MOSTLY SUCCESSFUL with one bug found: version mismatch between package.json (4.0.0) and plugin configuration files (3.8.0).
