A small, model-invoked skill that spins up a background agent to
investigate a question against high-trust primary sources, then leaves a
single cited Markdown file wherever the repo keeps such notes.
Wires it into the plugin set, both READMEs (Model-invoked), a docs page,
and the ask-matt router, per the repo's promoted-skill conventions.

Rename the in-progress `review` skill to `code-review` and move it from
`skills/in-progress/` into the promoted `skills/engineering/` bucket.
- Add it to `.claude-plugin/plugin.json` and the Model-invoked sections of
the top-level and Engineering READMEs; drop it from the in-progress README.
- Add a docs page at `docs/engineering/code-review.md`.
- Point `/implement` and its docs at `/code-review`.
- Update the smell-baseline changeset reference; add a changeset for the move.

misc/ skills are no longer installable via the plugin or listed in the
top-level README — they join personal/ as kept-but-unshipped. Only
engineering/ and productivity/ are promoted now.
- Drop the Misc section from the top-level README.
- Reclassify misc/ as non-promoted in CLAUDE.md (README/plugin rule,
bucket-README grouping rule, docs-page rule) and the writing-docs guide.
- Note the non-promoted status in the misc bucket README.
plugin.json already omitted misc, so no manifest change was needed.
No SKILL.md context pointer referenced a misc skill, so nothing else
had to move.

Adds a new engineering skill that turns loose ideas with many
interdependent open decisions into a sequenced DAG of one-session
investigation tickets, driving them to resolution one at a time.
Sits at the front of the pipeline, before /to-prd.

- Introduced a human-in-the-loop script for bug diagnosis to capture user feedback.
- Created ADR and CONTEXT formats to standardize architectural decision records and domain context documentation.
- Developed a domain modeling skill to refine terminology and maintain a shared language.
- Enhanced the improve-codebase-architecture skill to provide visual reports and deepening opportunities.
- Consolidated grilling and handoff skills for better user interaction and documentation.
- Updated existing skills to improve clarity and consistency in descriptions and functionality.
Engineering skills no longer hard-code GitHub or specific label strings.
A new setup skill scaffolds an `## Agent skills` block in
AGENTS.md/CLAUDE.md plus `docs/agents/` so each repo can declare its own
backlog backend, triage label vocabulary, and domain doc layout. Skills
that need the mapping (to-issues, to-prd, triage) point at the setup
skill; skills that only soften with it (diagnose, tdd,
improve-codebase-architecture, zoom-out) stay vague. ADR-0001 records
the split.
Closes#88, #89.
