* feat(cli): add skills version check, update, and freshness manifest

Give the HyperFrames skill bundle a content fingerprint so agents and
users can tell whether installed skills are the latest version, on any
platform that can run the CLI.

- skills-manifest.json (repo root): per-skill sha256 over the whole skill
  directory; minimal {source, skills}, no version/timestamp so it is fully
  deterministic. Generated by scripts/gen-skills-manifest.ts.
- `hyperframes skills check` [--json]: compares installed skills to the
  manifest; exits non-zero when something is outdated (agent/CI gate).
- `hyperframes skills update`: thin wrapper over `npx skills update`.
- Passive nudge on render/lint/validate when skills are stale (24h cache,
  same opt-out as the CLI self-update notice).
- "latest" resolved via `git ls-remote` + SHA-pinned raw URL to dodge
  GitHub raw-CDN lag, falling back to the main branch URL.
- CI job + lefthook hook keep skills-manifest.json in sync with skills/.

* fix(cli): add execFile to child_process mock in skills test

skills.test.ts mocks node:child_process but only declared execFileSync
and spawn. Loading skills.js transitively loads skillsManifest.ts, which
runs promisify(execFile) at module load, so vitest threw on the missing
execFile named export. Add a bare stub — these tests never invoke it.

* feat(cli): init installs all skills; skills update pulls the full set

Make `hyperframes init` the single place skills are pulled in full, and
make "update" mean "get everything" rather than "refresh what's there".

- init now always installs/refreshes ALL skills (incl. ones not yet
  present) instead of prompting "Install AI coding skills?" — opt out
  with `init --skip-skills`. Both the interactive and non-interactive
  paths pass `--all --yes` so the complete set is fetched.
- `hyperframes skills update` switches from `npx skills update` (which
  only refreshes already-installed skills) to `skills add --all`, so it
  installs missing skills too — the same install step init runs.
- SKILL.md documents init-installs-all and the new update semantics.

* feat(cli): skills check treats missing skills as needing an update

The full skill set is now the goal (init and `skills update` both pull
all, including ones not installed), so a partial install is no longer
"a choice" — it's something to fix.

- diffSkills: updateAvailable is now true when anything is outdated OR
  missing (local-only still doesn't count). So `skills check` exits
  non-zero — and renders "Update:" instead of "up to date" — whenever a
  skill is missing, not just when one is stale.
- The passive render/lint/validate nudge follows suit: it now counts
  missing alongside outdated ("N skills out of date or missing"),
  tracked via a new skillsMissingCount cache field.
- SKILL.md documents the stricter check.

Note: platforms that intentionally vendor only a subset of skills (e.g.
a Codex snapshot) will now see check report non-zero.

* fix(cli): install/update skills straight from the GitHub repo

`skills add owner/repo` can resolve through the skills.sh registry, which
lags behind the repo — so `update` could install a stale version while
`check` (which resolves latest directly from GitHub) keeps reporting
"outdated", an endless loop.

Switch the install source to the full GitHub URL
(https://github.com/heygen-com/hyperframes), which makes `skills add`
git-clone the repo directly at latest main, bypassing the registry. This
covers `hyperframes skills`, `hyperframes skills update`, and `init`'s
skill install — all of which go through SOURCES. Now install/update and
check agree on what "latest" means.

The init "install skills" hint now points at `npx hyperframes skills
update` so the manual path uses the same GitHub-direct fetch.

* feat(cli): init checks skills against GitHub, installs only when stale

`hyperframes init` now runs the skills version check first and only
(re)installs when something is outdated or missing — instead of
unconditionally re-pulling every time. Re-running init on an
already-current project is now a no-op ("skills are already up to date").

- New ensureSkillsCurrent() helper, shared by both the interactive and
  non-interactive init paths (no duplicated install logic).
- The check resolves "latest" straight from GitHub (same source the
  install uses); best-effort — if it can't reach GitHub it installs anyway.
- SKILL.md updated to describe the check-then-install behavior.

* refactor(cli): address skills manifest review feedback

From the PR review (points 1, 2, 4, 5):

1. Remove the `local-only` skill status. checkSkills only ever hashes
   manifest-listed skills, so a local-only status could never appear in
   the end-to-end output — and making it appear would wrongly flag
   unrelated skills (the `.../skills` dir is shared across sources).
   diffSkills now reports only on manifest skills; skills on disk that
   aren't in the manifest are ignored.
2. Drop the redundant per-directory sort in listFilesSorted — the single
   final out.sort() is what guarantees a deterministic hash (verified:
   manifest unchanged).
4. resolveLatestManifest local-path detection now uses path.isAbsolute,
   so Windows absolute paths (C:\...) are treated as local instead of
   falling through to a remote fetch.
5. fetchManifest validates the response shape (asSkillsManifest) instead
   of a blind `as` cast, so a CDN error page served as 200 fails with a
   clear error rather than a cryptic crash later in diffSkills.

* fix(cli): strict skills update + auto-discover any agent host

Address PR review (Magi blocker + James/Rames robustness):

- Blocker (Magi): `skills update` is the documented recovery path for
  `skills check || skills update`, but it delegated to installAllSkills()
  which swallowed missing-npx and failed `skills add` as "skipped",
  exiting 0 even when nothing changed. Add a strict mode that throws on
  failure; update sets a non-zero exit (init stays best-effort). New tests
  simulate a non-zero `skills add` (exit 1) and the success path.

- Robustness (James/Rames #2): the upstream `skills` CLI installs into
  ~72 agent conventions; a hard-coded list (4, or even 11) can't track
  that. Replace defaultSkillRoots with discoverSkillRoots — it scans cwd +
  $HOME for any `<host>/skills/<manifest-skill>/SKILL.md` (plus the XDG
  `.config/<host>/skills`), so detection is structural and future-proof,
  no closed list. agentFromDir infers the host from the path.

- Tests (Rames #3): temp-fixture detection tests for every convention ×
  {project, global}, scope priority, claude-code preference, the
  no-install case, the --dir override, and an unknown/new host (proving
  the no-closed-list property).

- Docs (Rames #4/#5): SKILL.md notes init's best-effort GitHub round-trip;
  findRepoManifest climbs 16 levels (was 8) for deep monorepos.

* fix(cli): resolve CodeQL file-system race + de-flake Windows npx test

Two CI fixes:

- CodeQL (high, js/file-system-race) at gen-skills-manifest.ts: the
  existsSync(outPath) precheck followed by writeFileSync(outPath) is a
  check-then-write race. Read the committed manifest directly in a
  try/catch instead (missing/unreadable ⇒ "no committed manifest"), so
  there's no precheck to race against. Behavior is unchanged.

- Windows Tests: npxCommand.test.ts's real `npx --version` smoke test
  cold-starts slower than vitest's 5s default on Windows runners and
  timed out. Give the test 60s headroom (and a 30s exec timeout). Kept
  as a real execution check — mocking would reduce it to a tautology.

* fix(cli): repair garbled npx smoke-test timeout comment

The explanatory comment for the 60s timeout was scrambled across the
callback/timeout arguments, failing oxfmt --check (and thus preflight,
which in turn skipped preview-parity and failed the regression gate).
Move it above the it() call so it no longer sits between call arguments.
