/**
 * Skill-listing budget — single source of truth.
 *
 * Claude Code shows the model a listing of every active skill's `description`
 * so it can decide which skill to invoke. That listing is budgeted two ways:
 *   - per description: capped at 1,536 chars (CC 2.1.105, changelog L1502);
 *     anything past the cap is silently truncated.
 *   - in aggregate: the whole listing is allotted ~2% of the context window
 *     (CC 2.1.32, changelog L2860). We do NOT know the user's context window,
 *     so the aggregate budget anchors on a conservative 200k window (4,000 tok)
 *     and discloses the assumption.
 *
 * Two scanners consume this module so the budget is defined in exactly one place:
 *   - SKL (skill-listing-scanner) DIAGNOSES overflow (CA-SKL-001 per-description
 *     cap, CA-SKL-002 aggregate).
 *   - GAP (feature-gap-scanner) PRESCRIBES the remedy: when the listing is over
 *     budget and `disableBundledSkills` is un-pulled, it recommends that lever.
 *
 * Zero external dependencies.
