Subject: [PATCH] fix: Add YAML frontmatter to unified, GitHub, and PDF skill
 builders
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

**Problem:** (PR #170 verified)
Three skill builders were generating SKILL.md files without YAML
frontmatter, making skills invisible to Claude after upload:
- unified_skill_builder.py
- github_scraper.py
- pdf_scraper.py

Only doc_scraper.py had frontmatter implemented.

**Root Cause:**
Claude requires YAML frontmatter with 'name' and 'description' fields
to recognize and index skills. Without it, uploaded skills don't appear
in skill lists and can't be triggered.

**Fix:**
Added consistent frontmatter generation to all three builders:
- Normalizes skill name (lowercase, hyphens, max 64 chars)
- Truncates description to 1024 chars (Claude requirement)
- Generates YAML frontmatter with proper formatting

**Test Results:**
✅ All 390/390 tests passing (0 failures, 0 skipped)
✅ Consistent implementation across all builders
✅ Meets Claude's official skill specification

**Example Output:**
```yaml
---
name: my-skill-name
description: Skill description here
---

# My Skill Name
...
```
