Skill Forge β core logic for validating, linting, and scaffolding Agent Skills.
An "Agent Skill" is a folder with a SKILL.md at its root: a YAML frontmatter
block (`--- ... ---`) followed by a Markdown body. The frontmatter names the
skill and, crucially, describes *when* an agent should reach for it; the body is
the instructions the agent follows once it does.
This module is pure stdlib + PyYAML so it can be unit-tested without Gradio.
Nothing here is copied from any spec document β the rules below are the stable,
widely-agreed structural constraints of the format.
