refactor(skills): retrofit the corpus to the ADR-0020 context contract (#129)

Retrofits all 39 skills to ADR-0020's description/body context contract, then fixes what six rounds of independent review found in that retrofit — including four ways the hot gate itself failed open.

Closes #99, #107, #108, #110, #111, #114, #115, #120.

## The retrofit (waves 1-5)

| | Start | Now |
|---|---|---|
| Description FAILs (>400 chars) | 26 | **0** |
| Body FAILs (>900 words, body-only) | 9 | **0** |
| Dangling routing targets | 2 | **0** |
| `Kyberforge.CompositionNote` | 10 | **0** |
| Preload tax | 21,005 chars | **~10,500** |

Under the 12,000-char success criterion. Per-wave detail is on #99.

## The review fixes

**The gate failed open four ways, three of them found after the retrofit shipped.** An unrecognised follower token made a dangling target vanish. A skill directory with no `SKILL.md` resolved as a valid target, so a commit could be green locally and red in a fresh clone — three existing fixtures were relying on that, one of which made the install-leak A/B pass vacuously. Then the free-standing `/name` sweep turned out to be gated on the sentence carrying a boundary marker, so route notation in any other sentence was invisible — not an ERROR, not a SUGGESTION, not an INFO — which left the documented "`/name` always blocks" promise false from a second direction. All four fixed and pinned.

**Two checks were silently not running.** `validate-provenance.sh` checks 7-8 were dead across nine skills. Waking them exposed a deeper problem: they assume `Research doc:` names a source index, but 30 of 121 entries point at topic content documents, so every new check-7 INFO was a false positive and check 8 was saved from a false-FAIL flood only by an *unannounced* skip. Checks 7/8 are now scoped to source indexes and every skip announces itself (#121).

**The retrofit's own anti-goal, four times.** ADR-0020 warns that a blunt gate gets satisfied by deleting content rather than relocating it. `diagnose` and `skill-audit` relocated prose and then read it unconditionally; `prototype` and `vale-config` deleted rules outright that survived nowhere. All four addressed.

## Verification

- `bash tests/run-tests.sh --strict` — 24 suites, 0 skipped, 0 failed
- `bash tests/run-bats.sh` — 325 tests, 0 failures
- `pre-commit run --all-files` — 17/17
- `pre-commit run --hook-stage pre-push --all-files` — 16/16, with `apm marketplace check` and `apm pack --check-clean` run against the remote, not skipped
- `scripts/skill-size-check.sh` over all 39 skills — rc 0, 0 ERROR/FAIL, SUGGESTION-only
- Preload tax measured at **10,498 chars**, max description 390 — both inside budget
- Every new test proven non-vacuous by a deliberate mutation of the behaviour it covers

**Per-commit sync, stated accurately:** the ten commits from the latest review round each pass `check-plugin-content-sync` in isolation, verified by checking each out in a detached worktree with a clean between. The earlier gitea window (`dfacf05..bedbd1d`, nine commits) does **not** — its mirror was regenerated in one batch at `bbc7300`. An earlier revision of this description claimed the property held for every commit; it does not, and a bisect through that window lands on a red commit. **Squash-merge** to collapse it, or accept that this range is not bisectable.

## Version bump

Six plugins and the catalog take a **patch**, not a minor. The branch is **89 commits — 40 `fix` / 30 `refactor` / 12 `docs` / 5 `chore` / 2 `test` — zero `feat`, zero `!`, zero `BREAKING CHANGE`** — and adds no skill, agent, command or hook. (Two earlier revisions of this section cited a stale histogram, most recently 78 commits; the figures above are measured at HEAD.) Both rules this repo ships (`forge/references/version-bump.md`, landing in this PR, and `git-commits/references/conventional-commits-spec.md`) make that a patch, and the catalog set is unchanged at 7 entries.

Not settled by that: four published files were removed from the installed tree, three moved, and `caveman` gained `disable-model-invocation`, retiring its old triggers. Under a strict reading those are major-class and currently ship under `refactor:` with no marker. Whether the deployed skill surface is a public contract is written down nowhere — worth deciding, but it outlives this PR.

## Deliberately not in scope

#112 (cherry-pick ownership, now resolved in favour of `git-commits`), #113 (`rtk git` normalisation), #116 (research fan-out), #101 (audit-skill merge), #122 (non-spec skill-root files), #123 (no PRD producer) stay open. #117 is the one worth reading: the contract's remedy is to move prose into `references/`, which is exactly where neither the size gate nor Vale looks — and the blind spot is wider than #117 currently records, since there is no root `.vale.ini` at all, so every ADR, `CONTEXT.md` and `README.md` is unlinted too.

That blind spot let this branch carry two `level: error` `Kyberforge.SentenceOpenerThereIs` violations into `references/` files it created — `provider-adapter-author/references/provider-matrix.md:31` and `agent-audit/references/finding-criteria.md:95`. Both are reworded in `afadaae`, confirmed by routing each file through the audit's own `vale-wrap.sh` (1 error each before, 0 after). Five further occurrences sit in `references/` files already on `main`; those are the pre-existing corpus and stay with #117, which is the real fix.

Also unfixed and not this PR's: `apm install` appends a duplicate `SessionStart` entry to `.claude/settings.json`, so a fresh clone cannot get pre-push green without an edit AGENTS.md warns against. Reproduces identically on `main`.

Use when reading or writing Gitea labels or milestones — listing repo/org labels, creating,
editing, or deleting a label, resolving label names to the numeric IDs required for applying
them to an issue or PR, or listing, creating, updating, closing, or deleting a milestone. This is
a cross-cutting shared skill: `gitea-issues` and `gitea-prs` both compose it whenever they need to
apply labels or assign a milestone, rather than duplicating label/milestone logic. Also use for
label inference — mapping a bug report, feature request, or urgency signal in conversation
context to the repo's `Kind/*`/`Priority/*`/`Status/*` label taxonomy. Do not use for applying
already-resolved label IDs or milestone IDs to a specific issue or PR — that write goes through
`issue_write`/`pull_request_write` in `gitea-issues`/`gitea-prs`, not here.
Use when reading or writing Gitea labels or milestones — "create a label", "what labels does
this repo have", "close the milestone" — or to resolve label names to IDs, or infer a
Kind/Priority/Status label from context, even when the user does not say "Gitea".
Not applying them to an issue -> `gitea-issues`. Not to a PR -> `gitea-prs`.
compatibility: Requires Gitea MCP server configured with write:issue and write:repository token scopes.

## Gotchas
- **Label writes take IDs, reads return names.** `label_read` is the only tool that returns full label objects (`id`, `name`, `color`, `description`). Issue/PR responses slim labels down to name strings. Before any label is applied to an issue or PR (in `gitea-issues`/`gitea-prs`), resolve names → IDs here via `label_read method: "list_repo_labels"` — never pass a name string where an ID is expected.
- **Milestones are referenced by ID everywhere, never by title.** `milestone_write` update/delete take `id`. The one place titles show up as the sole handle is the `pull_request_read` response (see next gotcha).
- **Milestone representation differs between issues and PRs.** `issue_read` returns `milestone: {id, title}` — an object. `pull_request_read` returns `milestone: "title string"` — title only, no ID. You cannot recover a milestone ID from a PR response directly; call `milestone_read method: "list"` and match by title instead.
- **Repo labels and org labels are separate pools, never mixed in one call.** `label_read`/`label_write` take either `owner`+`repo` (repo-scoped methods) or `org` (org-scoped methods) — passing both or neither for a given method is a caller error, not something the schema enforces for you. Repo and org labels can both apply to the same issue, but you list/create/edit them through different method values.
- **`milestone_write` accepts `"update"` and `"edit"` as the same operation.** Both method values map to the identical update call. Prefer `"update"` for consistency with `issue_write`/`pull_request_write`.
- **`exclusive` is documented as an org-labels-only flag — it isn't what enforces exclusivity here.** Gitea's docs scope the settable/server-enforced `exclusive` flag to org labels only, and the live `label_write` schema for `create_repo_label`/`edit_repo_label` doesn't document accepting it at all. This repo's `Kind/*`, `Priority/*`, `Status/*` groups still behave as one-label-per-scope, but that's a manually-enforced convention this skill implements client-side, not a guaranteed server behavior for repo labels: applying a new label within a scope (e.g. `Priority/High`) must replace any existing label in that same scope, not add alongside it, and nothing on the server enforces that for you. Label inference (see `references/label-inference.md`) must respect this — replace, don't stack.
- **Pagination is manual on every list call.** `label_read` and `milestone_read` both default to `per_page: 30`. Iterate `page: 1, 2, ...` until the result count is less than `per_page` — there is no cursor or auto-pagination.
- **Schema requiredness differs between the two tool families.** `milestone_read`/`milestone_write` have `owner` and `repo` as hard-required parameters (the call fails validation without them). `label_read`/`label_write` only hard-require `method` — `owner`/`repo`/`org` are functionally required per method but not schema-enforced, so passing none produces a runtime error from Gitea, not a client-side validation error.
- **Applying a label takes a numeric ID, but issue/PR responses slim labels down to name strings.** An issue's existing labels yield no IDs — resolve name → ID with `label_read`.
- **`pull_request_read` returns `milestone` as a bare title string** where `issue_read` returns `{id, title}` — recover the milestone's ID by listing milestones and matching the title.
- **Never assume a `Kind/*`/`Priority/*`/`Status/*` scope is exclusive — read each label's own `exclusive` field.** `list_repo_labels` returns it on every repo label, so it is always *readable* per label; `label_write` documents it as "(org only)" because it is only *settable* through the org create methods. Where it is `true` Gitea enforces one-per-scope itself, and replacing rather than stacking on a label whose `exclusive` is `false` destroys a valid label.

The `*_org_label*` methods take `org`, not `owner`/`repo`. Pass that same `owner` as `org` — it is the org name whenever the owner is an organisation, and the remote URL does not say whether it is one.
Read the failure text before interpreting it. `list_org_labels` needs the `read:organization` token scope, which this skill's declared scopes (`write:issue`, `write:repository`) do not carry, so it fails with `token does not have at least one of required scope(s), required=[read:organization]` *before* it ever determines org-vs-user. Report that: the org pool went unchecked, not empty. Only a not-found response is evidence the owner is a user account with no org pool.

Every list method paginates manually — `per_page` defaults to 30, so iterate `page: 1, 2, ...` until a page returns fewer results than `per_page`. A truncated list silently breaks name → ID resolution.
Applying resolved label IDs or a milestone ID to a specific issue or PR is out of scope here — that's `issue_write`/`pull_request_write` in the composing skill (`gitea-issues`/`gitea-prs`).
If the task is a label operation, read `references/labels.md`; if a milestone operation, read `references/milestones.md`. If the label to apply has to be derived from conversation context rather than named, read `references/label-inference.md`.
