- references/sources.md: add YAML frontmatter with source_keys to fix provenance chain break
- SKILL.md description: make create/improve duality explicit ("Handles both the full create flow ... and the improve flow ...")
- SKILL.md Step 2: add inline metadata.source_keys instruction — fill early, not deferred to Step 5
- SKILL.md Step 6 (create) / Step 5 (improve): add pre-audit manual checklists and version bump conventions (minor for create, patch for improve)
- README.md: correct false claim that the skill bumps plugin manifests; it bumps metadata.version only

## Why
README "What it does" didn't reflect the plugin version bump step added
to both create and improve flows.
Co-authored-by: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
skill-audit description understated its coverage by omitting three audit
dimensions (patterns, scripts, provenance); README carried the same stale
list. skill-author had an unconditional reference trigger that should be
conditional on whether a script is being added.

- Remove implementation-focused sentence from description (was not user-intent
language per agentskills.io spec)
- Move source_keys template comment under metadata: block to match Step 5's
instruction; contradicted agents scaffolding before reading Step 5
- Add Step 6 to new-skill.sh next-steps (populate references/sources.md);
renumber validate step to 7 — script was missing the sources step entirely

Add Research doc: pointer to all 7 agentskillsio entries so the new
validate-provenance.sh upstream checks resolve correctly for this skill.

Step 5 now records a Research doc: path per entry in references/sources.md,
pointing to the upstream plugin-level research file the slug was drawn from.
Updates the sources.md template to include the new required field, formalise
comma-separated Contributing files, and document the (none) convention.

- script: new-skill.sh now exits 0 when target already exists (idempotent
retry-safe) instead of exit 1; --help updated to reflect narrowed error cases
- test: updated bats test to assert success and "nothing to do" output
- body: removed speculative "Extract the skill from a real task" advice
(human-targeted, not agent-actionable)
- formatting: converted H4 headings in Step 2 to bold text (H2/H3 two-tier model)
- provenance: removed orphan agentskills-llms-txt entry from references/sources.md;
added discovery-only comment

Records the upstream agentskills.io sources that informed skill-author,
completing the research → docs → skill provenance chain introduced in
the previous commit.
- New references/sources.md with all 7 extracted agentskillsio sources,
Contributing files attributed per-source to SKILL.md, references/deployment-modes.md,
and references/scripts.md
- source_keys frontmatter added to SKILL.md (all 7 slugs), references/deployment-modes.md
(agentskills-spec), and references/scripts.md (agentskills-using-scripts)

Adds a sources provenance step to the skill creation workflow so the
chain from research output to skill content is traceable. Closes#4.
- New scaffold template `assets/templates/references/sources.md` mirroring
the research skill's sources.md format (slug → URL, description,
contributing files, status)
- `source_keys` commented-out optional field added to the SKILL.md
template, mirroring how research topic files link back to sources
- New Step 5 in the creation workflow: populate references/sources.md
from research input (attributing contributing skill files) or delete it
if no research was provided; add source_keys to SKILL.md and any
references/*.md files

Body discipline: collapsed 4-bullet script rules to single critical callout
(no interactive prompts); full contract stays in references/scripts.md.
stderr discipline: redirect all confirmation/progress output in new-skill.sh
to stderr per scripts.md contract. Also expands references/scripts.md with
input validation and --help guidance.

Closes#5. Single authoring skill replaces the factory trio — one set of
standards, one script, one place for future governance rules. Routes to
create or improve flow based on context. Passes skill-audit with no findings.
