chore(release): bump version to 1.20.0

[ErickXavier]

Summary

• Bump SKILL.md frontmatter version from 1.19.0 to 1.20.0

Status

HELD — do not merge until v1.20.0 release (T10)

[ErickXavier]

APPROVED — QA GATE (T8, EPIC NOJS-270)

Scope verified: markdown-only version bump 1.19.0 → 1.20.0. HELD note present in PR body (do not merge until v1.20.0 release, T10).

Evidence

• gh pr diff 70 confirms exactly ONE changed line: nojs/SKILL.md frontmatter metadata.version: 1.19.0 → 1.20.0 (line 4). No other files touched.
• YAML frontmatter remains well-formed (version correctly nested under metadata:, parses as string).
• Code review (multi-angle): no findings. No other version references exist in the repo (no README badge, no manifest) — SKILL.md frontmatter is the sole version location per workspace convention.
• Commit 062ceca conventional (chore(release): bump version to 1.20.0), author/committer Erick Xavier, no trailers, no AI attribution in commit or PR body.
• Ecosystem parity confirmed: nojs#290, nojs-elements#74, nojs-lsp#81 all at 1.20.0.

Non-blocking notes

• CHANGELOG [1.20.0] entry deferred to T9 — expected.

Appended changelog commit (b1e0471): docs(changelog): add v1.20.0 entry — SSE directive documentation in SKILL.md and references/directives/sse.md.

APPROVED — QA GATE (T9)

Reviewed commit b1e0471 on chore/NOJS-278-version-bump (CHANGELOG v1.20.0 entry + SKILL.md frontmatter bump, 2 commits total on branch).

Verification evidence

• Both [1.20.0] bullets verified true against held PR #69's diff (427 lines): it touches exactly nojs/SKILL.md (SSE section with the full attribute table listed) and nojs/references/directives/sse.md — the two files the changelog names.
• CHANGELOG format matches prior entries: em-dash heading, tag-based compare links ([Unreleased] → v1.20.0...HEAD, entry → v1.19.0...v1.20.0), ### Added section, date 2026-07-17.
• Diff scope clean: CHANGELOG.md + SKILL.md frontmatter version line only. Zero stale 1.19.0 references introduced.
• Commits conventional, author Erick Xavier, no attribution trailers.
• Full 8-angle code-review pipeline: zero blocking defects.

Merge-order dependency (important for T10)
This changelog describes content shipped by held PR #69. Both must merge before the v1.20.0 tag; either order works, but tagging without #69 merged would make this entry false.

Should-fix before the v1.20.0 tag (non-blocking, pre-existing)

1. .claude-plugin/plugin.json is still "version": "1.16.1" (last aligned in cb2ffb6; missed since v1.17.0). This repo's CONTRIBUTING.md Version Sync Checklist (lines 102-109) requires plugin.json to be bumped in the same commit as the SKILL.md frontmatter. Recommend appending a one-line 1.16.1 → 1.20.0 bump to this branch — release step 16 (verify versions match) would otherwise keep failing for plugin/marketplace consumers.
2. Pre-existing staleness in SKILL.md body (follow-up material, untouched by this PR): line 543 NoJS.version // "1.15.0" and line 670 | **Version** | 1.15.0 |.
