Magnus Hedemark 738ec715e7 Add human-focused README.md to every skill and bundle directory
Each README is written for a human audience, explaining:
- What the skill does (not what format it follows)
- What benefit the user gets from installing it
- Quick setup and usage patterns
- When to load/trigger the skill
- What scripts, references, and templates it ships

data-scientist already had a README — left unchanged.

48 READMEs added across all skill and bundle directories.

# Open Source Contributions — Be a Good Citizen
Make good open source contributions — check CONTRIBUTING.md first, follow project norms, be a good citizen. Covers bug reports, feature requests, and pull requests.
## Why Install This Skill
When your agent loads this skill, it becomes a **model open source contributor** who knows how to:
- **Read the room** — check CONTRIBUTING.md, check existing issues/PRs before acting
- **File great bug reports** — minimal reproduction cases, clear steps, expected vs actual behavior
- **Make good PRs** — right-sized scope, clean commits, proper messaging
- **Handle review gracefully** — respond to feedback, update PRs, know when to follow up
- **Work without guidelines** — defensible defaults when the project hasn't documented expectations
- **Disclose AI assistance** — proper agent disclosure on AI-assisted contributions
## What You Get
| Directory | Purpose |
|-----------|---------|
| `SKILL.md` | Golden rule, phase overview, default posture, agent checklist |
| `references/` | 8 phase references + agent checklist + pitfalls + default posture (comprehensive guidance for every stage of contribution) |
## Triggers
Load this when filing an issue, opening a PR, or contributing to any open source project.
## Requirements
None. Works with any agent supporting the Agent Skills format.
