feat(skill): one generic skill by default, carrying a working method and an answer form

Browse source 
The operator built a 2313-concept bundle from one project's own documentation,
asked it a question in his own words, and judged the result unusable. The
generated skill was an audit contract: all its discipline sat on the accounting
-- markings, denominators, budget lines, source pointers -- and none of it on
understanding the question, searching again, or writing one coherent answer.
Two sentences actively forbade the second of those.

**The two forbidding sentences are gone and their replacements are tested from
both sides.** "Do not go looking for context the pre-pass deliberately
withheld" read as "one run per question", and no wording of the operator's
question put the right document inside a single run's cut -- so a rule against
a second run was a rule against finding it at all. "Not something to retry with
a narrower question" generalised a budget-refusal case into the same ban.
SS 2.2 of the contract said the first of them, so the contract moved with the
skill rather than being left to disagree with it: a second pre-pass run with
other terms, and a fetch of a concept the payload NAMED, are reachable; SS 9's
two real boundaries -- directory enumeration, the verdict layer -- are not.

**Two new sections, and the checker requires them.** `## Working method`: read
the bundle's map, put the question into the bundle's own words, split a broad
question into 2-4 sub-questions, search per sub-question, read what lay just
outside the cut and search again with its words, same method across several
bundles, then assemble ONE answer ordered by sub-question, saying which source
holds and what is not covered. `## Answer form`: the questioner's language,
plain prose, no `below_k`, no digests, no budget lines, no denominators; short
textbook-style references (document + section, plus bundle where several were
read); and the audit trail written only when the questioner asks for it or
into a document that travels without the skill. `REQUIRED_SECTIONS` follows the
template and the contract's new SS 2.5 and SS 2.6 -- never the other way round.

**The generic skill becomes what `okf skill` and `okf project` write.** A
per-bundle skill's numbers go stale the moment its bundle is rebuilt, one copy
per consuming project, and a project with two bundles installs two
near-identical skills; the generic form carries no bundle's numbers and names
`okf card` for them. `--for-bundle` is the opt-in for the instantiated copy,
which still refuses out loud on a stale pairing -- safe to keep, not enough to
keep default. `rule_bundle_identity` learned to tell a generic skill from an
unfilled template by the frontmatter name the generator writes, so the template
still fails for the opposite reason: it declares no identity because it is
unfinished.

and the cut; it decides nothing about the question.
- Do not re-derive what the payload handed you.
- Do not go looking for context the pre-pass deliberately withheld. The
`withheld` list names each dropped concept and the rule that dropped it; if a
finding appears to need one, record it as a coverage limitation naming the
concept and the rule. A visible drop is worth more than a silent override.
- Declare the cut in your output. Reporting as though you had read the bundle,
when you were handed a bounded window, is the denominator failure below with
extra steps.
- **The cut is one run's answer, not the bundle's.** `withheld` states the
total, the count per rule, and the best-ranked drops BY NAME with their
title and document. A near miss that looks like what you needed is a
reachable concept: run the pre-pass again with its words, or fetch it by
name. What you may not do is the two things § 9 forbids — enumerate the
directory, or reach the verdict layer.
- Know which you did. A claim resting on a concept a first run withheld is
still sourced; a claim resting on a concept you never delivered is not.
- Declare the cut in your output when the questioner asked for it. Reporting
as though you had read the whole bundle, when you were handed a bounded
window, is the denominator failure below with extra steps.
## Working method
Five steps, in this order. The pre-pass is step three, not step one: a question
asked in the wrong words reaches the wrong concepts however good the ranking is.
**1. Understand the question first.** Read the bundle's map before you search
it — what it holds, how many concepts, what the documents are called. Then put
the question into the bundle's own words: a bundle written in one language and
a question asked in another share few tokens, and the pre-pass matches tokens.
Take the terms from the bundle's own titles, not from your vocabulary.
**2. Split a broad question into 2–4 sub-questions.** One search for a question
with four parts returns the best eight concepts for the average of the four,
which is often the best eight for none of them. Write the sub-questions down;
they are also the shape of the answer.
**3. Search per sub-question. Several searches are normal, and searching again
is allowed and expected.** Run the pre-pass once per sub-question:
```sh
okf consume <BUNDLE_ROOT> --question "one sub-question" --out /tmp/p1.json
```
After each run, read two things: what came back, and what lay just outside the
cut. `withheld.nearest` names the best-ranked concepts that missed, with their
titles — if one of them is what you were after, that is a signal about the
WORDS, not a closed door. Search again with the words that concept uses, or
ask for it by name. There is no limit on runs and no penalty for a run that
found nothing; a run that found nothing is a measurement, and its denominator
is worth carrying.
**4. Several bundles, same method.** When more than one bundle could answer,
run the same sub-questions against each, and keep track of which bundle each
piece of material came from. A claim is attributed to its bundle as well as its
concept — two bundles can hold the same sentence with different authority.
**5. Put it together.** Order the material by sub-question, not by rank. Where
sources disagree, decide what holds NOW: the newest documentation or the
highest version wins, and say which version you read. Say plainly what the
bundle or bundles do not cover. Then write ONE coherent answer — not a list of
excerpts with the assembly left to the reader.
## Answer form
Write for the person who asked: in the questioner's language, whatever
language the bundle is in, and in ordinary prose.
- **Plain words.** The instrument's vocabulary stays out of the answer:
not `below_k`, not `withheld`, not a `sha256`, not a budget line, not the
word denominator. Those are how the answer was produced, not what it says.
- **Short source references, as a textbook gives them**: the document and the
section, and the bundle too when more than one was read — "R761 § 84.3" and
not a 64-character digest. A reader who wants the file can be told where it
is; a reader who wants the answer should not have to step over the plumbing
to reach it.
- **Say what is not covered** in one sentence, in the same prose. A gap stated
plainly is worth more than a table of rules nobody reads.
- **The audit trail is a choice.** The markings, the three counts, the ref and
the rules a concept was dropped under go to a file, or to the end of the
answer, only when the questioner asks for them — or when you are producing a
document that will travel without you. Otherwise the answer is the
deliverable.

exactly one of them and a source you could produce on request; what changed is
