Defame1297 e899bc3883 fix(skill-audit): exempt Research doc: paths from cross-plugin path check

references/sources.md Research doc: fields are development-only provenance
pointers, not runtime references — they intentionally target paths outside the
skill directory and are expected to be non-resolvable after plugin install.
validate-provenance.sh degrades gracefully when they don't resolve.

skill-audit

Audit a skill directory against the agentskills.io specification. Runs structural validation then a qualitative review across description quality, body discipline, formatting, file structure, and internal consistency.

What it does

Runs scripts/validate.sh and scripts/validate-provenance.sh for structural and provenance checks
Reads all files in the skill directory
Applies qualitative checks across seven dimensions
Outputs a compact findings report — findings only, grouped by dimension, each with Why and Fix — and a result block with handoff to /skill-improve

Usage

/skill-audit

Provide the path to the skill directory to audit when invoking.

File	Purpose
`SKILL.md`	Skill instructions for agents
`scripts/validate.sh`	Structural validator — checks name format, name matches directory, description length, line count, placeholder detection, script executable bit, and interactive-prompt detection
`scripts/validate-provenance.sh`	Provenance validator — checks sources.md completeness, source_keys/slug consistency, Contributing files existence, bidirectional linkage, Research doc: fields, and upstream research doc alignment
`references/description-quality.md`	Spec-grounded rubric for description auditing — loaded when a finding is borderline
`references/body-discipline.md`	Spec-grounded rubric for body discipline auditing — loaded when padding vs necessity is unclear
`references/sources.md`	Provenance record — agentskills.io sources that informed this skill and which files each contributed to
`tests/validate.bats`	Bats test suite for validate.sh
`tests/validate-provenance.bats`	Bats test suite for validate-provenance.sh
`tests/README.md`	Setup instructions for bats-support and bats-assert test dependencies
