feat: composable skills — INVOKE_SKILL resolver + factoring infrastructure (v0.13.7.0) (#644)

* feat: add parameterized resolver support to gen-skill-docs

Extend the placeholder regex from {{WORD}} to {{WORD:arg1:arg2}},
enabling parameterized resolvers like {{INVOKE_SKILL:plan-ceo-review}}.

- Widen ResolverFn type to accept optional args?: string[]
- Update RESOLVERS record to use ResolverFn type
- Both replacement and unresolved-check regexes updated
- Fully backward compatible: existing {{WORD}} patterns unchanged

* feat: add INVOKE_SKILL resolver for composable skill loading

New composition.ts resolver module that emits prose instructing Claude
to read another skill's SKILL.md and follow it, skipping preamble
sections. Supports optional skip= parameter for additional sections.

Usage: {{INVOKE_SKILL:plan-ceo-review}} or
       {{INVOKE_SKILL:plan-ceo-review:skip=Outside Voice}}

* feat: use frontmatter name: for skill symlinks and Codex paths

Patch all 3 name-derivation paths to read name: from SKILL.md
frontmatter instead of relying solely on directory basenames.
This enables directory names that differ from invocation names
(e.g., run-tests/ directory with name: test).

- setup: link_claude_skill_dirs reads name: via grep, falls back to basename
- gen-skill-docs.ts: codexSkillName uses frontmatter name for Codex output paths
- gen-skill-docs.ts: moved frontmatter extraction before Codex path logic

* feat: extract CHANGELOG_WORKFLOW resolver from /ship

Move changelog generation logic into a reusable resolver. The resolver
is changelog-only (no version bump per Codex review recommendation).
Adds voice rules inline. /ship Step 5 now uses {{CHANGELOG_WORKFLOW}}.

* refactor: use INVOKE_SKILL resolver for plan-ceo-review office-hours fallback

Replace inline skill loading prose (read file, skip sections) with
{{INVOKE_SKILL:office-hours}} in the mid-session detection path.
The BENEFITS_FROM prerequisite offer is unchanged (separate use case).

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* refactor: BENEFITS_FROM resolver delegates to INVOKE_SKILL

Eliminate duplicated skip-list logic by having generateBenefitsFrom
call generateInvokeSkill internally. The wrapper (AskUserQuestion,
design doc re-check) stays in BENEFITS_FROM. The loading instructions
(read file, skip sections, error handling) come from INVOKE_SKILL.

* test: add resolver tests for INVOKE_SKILL, CHANGELOG_WORKFLOW, parameterized args

12 new tests covering:
- INVOKE_SKILL: template placeholder, default skip list, error handling,
  BENEFITS_FROM delegation
- CHANGELOG_WORKFLOW: content, cross-check, voice guidance, format
- Parameterized resolver infra: colon-separated args processing,
  no unresolved placeholders across all generated SKILL.md files

* chore: bump version and changelog (v0.13.7.0)

* fix: journey routing tests — CLAUDE.md routing rules + stronger descriptions

Three journey E2E tests (ideation, ship, debug) were failing because
Claude answered directly instead of invoking the Skill tool. Root cause:
skill descriptions in system-reminder are too weak to override Claude's
default behavior for tasks it can handle natively.

Fix has two parts:
1. CLAUDE.md routing rules in test workdir — Claude weighs project-level
   instructions higher than skill description metadata
2. "Proactively invoke" (not "suggest") in office-hours, investigate,
   ship descriptions — reinforces the routing signal

10/10 journey tests now pass (was 7/10).

* feat: one-time CLAUDE.md routing injection prompt

Add a preamble section that checks if the project's CLAUDE.md has
skill routing rules. If not (and user hasn't declined), asks once
via AskUserQuestion to inject a "## Skill routing" section.

Root cause: skill descriptions in system-reminder metadata are too
weak to reliably trigger proactive Skill tool invocation. CLAUDE.md
project instructions carry higher weight in Claude's decision making.

- Preamble bash checks for "## Skill routing" in CLAUDE.md
- Stores decline in gstack-config (routing_declined=true)
- Only asks once per project (HAS_ROUTING check + config check)

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat: annotated config file + routing injection tests

gstack-config now writes a documented header on first config creation
with every supported key explained (proactive, telemetry, auto_upgrade,
skill_prefix, routing_declined, codex_reviews, skip_eng_review, etc.).
Users can edit ~/.gstack/config.yaml directly, anytime.

Also fixes grep to use ^KEY: anchoring so commented header lines don't
shadow real config values.

Tests added:
- 7 new gstack-config tests (annotated header, no duplication, comment
  safety, routing_declined get/set/reset)
- 6 new gen-skill-docs tests (preamble routing injection: bash checks,
  config reads, AskUserQuestion, decline persistence, routing rules)

* chore: bump to v0.13.9.0, separate CHANGELOG from main's releases

Split our branch's changes into a new 0.13.9.0 entry instead of
jamming them into 0.13.7.0 which already landed on main as
"Community Wave."

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* docs: clarify branch-scoped VERSION/CHANGELOG after merging main

Add explicit rules: merging main doesn't mean adopting main's version.
Branch always gets its own entry on top with a higher version number.
Three-point checklist after every merge.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix: put our 0.13.9.0 entry on top of CHANGELOG

Newest version goes on top. Our branch lands next, so our entry
must be above main's 0.13.8.0.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix: restore missing 0.13.7.0 Community Wave entry

Accidentally dropped the 0.13.7.0 entry when reordering.
All entries now present: 0.13.9.0 > 0.13.8.0 > 0.13.7.0 > 0.13.6.0.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* docs: add CHANGELOG integrity check rule

After any edit that moves/adds/removes entries, grep for version
headers and verify no gaps or duplicates before committing.
Prevents accidentally dropping entries during reordering.

Options:
- A) Add routing rules to CLAUDE.md (recommended)
- B) No thanks, I'll invoke skills manually
If A: Append this section to the end of CLAUDE.md:
```markdown
## Skill routing
When the user's request matches an available skill, ALWAYS invoke it using the Skill
tool as your FIRST action. Do NOT answer directly, do NOT use other tools first.
The skill has specialized workflows that produce better results than ad-hoc answers.
Key routing rules:
- Product ideas, "is this worth building", brainstorming → invoke office-hours
- Bugs, errors, "why is this broken", 500 errors → invoke investigate
- Ship, deploy, push, create PR → invoke ship
- QA, test the site, find bugs → invoke qa
- Code review, check my diff → invoke review
- Update docs after shipping → invoke document-release
- Weekly retro → invoke retro
- Design system, brand → invoke design-consultation
- Visual audit, design polish → invoke design-review
- Architecture review → invoke plan-eng-review
```
Then commit the change: `git add CLAUDE.md && git commit -m "chore: add gstack skill routing rules to CLAUDE.md"`
If B: run `~/.claude/skills/gstack/bin/gstack-config set routing_declined true`
Say "No problem. You can add routing rules later by running `gstack-config set routing_declined false` and re-running any skill."
This only happens once per project. If `HAS_ROUTING` is `yes` or `ROUTING_DECLINED` is `true`, skip this entirely.
