Skills now migrate from hand-authored plugin.json to Microsoft APM
(apm.yml + .apm/) per ADR-0015/issue #89. skill-author's write location
switches accordingly: walk up from the destination to the nearest
ancestor apm.yml declaring a type: field (skipping type:-less
marketplace-only manifests) and scaffold into <package-root>/.apm/skills/
<name>/. Standalone authoring (no apm.yml/.git anywhere, e.g.
~/.agents/skills/) is unchanged — only the old plugin.json-based path is
replaced, not standalone mode.
Refs: #89
- 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.

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

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.
