fix: sync spike/sketch workflows with upstream skill improvements

Spike workflow:
- Add prior spike check — skips already-validated questions
- Add comparison spikes (NNN-a/NNN-b) for head-to-head evaluation
- Add research-before-building step (context7 + web search)
- Add forensic logging/observability for runtime-interactive spikes
- Add Type column to MANIFEST, type/Research/Observability to README

Sketch workflow:
- Add research-the-target-stack step — check component availability,
  framework constraints, and idiomatic patterns before building

Spike wrap-up workflow:
- Replace per-spike curation with auto-include-all (every spike carries
  signal: VALIDATED=patterns, PARTIAL=constraints, INVALIDATED=landmines)
- Add Step 10 intelligent routing — integration spike candidates,
  frontier spike candidates, and standard next-step options

Commands updated with context7/WebSearch tools and --text flag.

## Curate Spikes One-at-a-Time
<step name="auto_include">
## Auto-Include All Spikes
Present each unprocessed spike in ascending order. For each spike, show:
Include all unprocessed spikes automatically. Present a brief inventory showing what's being processed:
- **Spike number and name**
- **Validates:** the Given/When/Then from frontmatter
- **Verdict:** VALIDATED / INVALIDATED / PARTIAL
- **Tags:** from frontmatter
- **Key findings:** summarize the Results section from the README
- **Grey areas:** anything uncertain or partially proven
```
Processing N spikes:
001 — name (VALIDATED)
002 — name (PARTIAL)
003 — name (INVALIDATED)
```
Then ask the user:
╔══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗
║ CHECKPOINT: Decision Required ║
╚══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╝
Spike {NNN}: {name} — {verdict}
{key findings summary}
──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
→ Include / Exclude / Partial / Help me UAT this
──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
**If "Help me UAT this":**
1. Read the spike's README "How to Run" and "What to Expect" sections
2. Present step-by-step instructions
3. Ask: "Does this match what you expected?"
4. After UAT, return to the include/exclude/partial decision
**If "Partial":**
Ask what specifically to include or exclude. Record their notes alongside the spike.
Every spike carries forward:
- **VALIDATED** spikes provide proven patterns
- **PARTIAL** spikes provide constrained patterns
- **INVALIDATED** spikes provide landmines and dead ends
</step>
<step name="group">
## Auto-Group by Feature Area
After all spikes are curated:
1. Read all included spikes' tags, names, `related` fields, and content
2. Propose feature-area groupings, e.g.:
- "**WebSocket Streaming** — spikes 001, 004, 007"
- "**Foo API Integration** — spikes 002, 003"
- "**PDF Parsing** — spike 005"
3. Present the grouping for approval — user may merge, split, rename, or rearrange
Group spikes by feature area based on tags, names, `related` fields, and content. Proceed directly into synthesis.
Each group becomes one reference file in the generated skill.

## What's Next — Intelligent Spike Routing
## ▶ Next Up
Analyze the full spike landscape (MANIFEST.md, all curated findings, feature-area groupings, validated/invalidated/partial verdicts) and present three categories of next-step options:
**Start building** — plan the real implementation
### Category A: Integration Spikes — "Do any validated spikes need to be tested together?"
`/gsd-plan-phase`
Review every pair and cluster of VALIDATED spikes. Look for:
───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
- **Shared resources:** Two spikes that both touch the same API, database, state, or data format but were tested independently. Will they conflict, race, or step on each other?
- **Data handoffs:** Spike A produces output that Spike B consumes. The formats were assumed compatible but never proven.
- **Timing/ordering:** Spikes that work in isolation but have sequencing dependencies in the real flow (e.g., auth must complete before streaming starts).
- **Resource contention:** Spikes that individually work but may compete for connections, memory, rate limits, or tokens when combined.
**Also available:**
- `/gsd-add-phase` — add a phase based on spike findings
- `/gsd-spike` — spike additional ideas
- `/gsd-explore` — continue exploring
If integration risks exist, present them as concrete proposed spikes:
───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
> **Integration spike candidates:**
> - "Spikes 001 + 003 together: streaming through the authenticated connection" — these were tested separately but the real app needs both at once
> - "Spikes 002 + 005 data handoff: does the parser output match what the renderer expects?"
If no meaningful integration risks exist, say so and skip this category.
### Category B: Frontier Spikes — "What else should we spike?"
Think laterally about the overall idea from MANIFEST.md and what's been proven so far. Consider:
- **Gaps in the vision:** What does the user's idea need that hasn't been spiked yet? Look at the MANIFEST.md idea description and identify capabilities that are assumed but unproven.
- **Discovered dependencies:** Findings from completed spikes that reveal new questions. A spike that validated "X works" may imply "but we'd also need Y" — surface those implied needs.
- **Alternative approaches:** If any spike was PARTIAL or INVALIDATED, suggest a different angle to achieve the same goal.
- **Adjacent capabilities:** Things that aren't strictly required but would meaningfully improve the idea if feasible — worth a quick spike to find out.
- **Comparison opportunities:** If a spike used one library/approach and it worked but felt heavy or awkward, suggest a comparison spike with an alternative.
Present frontier spikes as concrete proposals with names, validation questions (Given/When/Then), and risk-ordering:
> **Frontier spike candidates:**
> 1. `NNN-descriptive-name` — Given [X], when [Y], then [Z]. *Why now: [reason this is the logical next thing to explore]*
> 2. `NNN-descriptive-name` — Given [X], when [Y], then [Z]. *Why now: [reason]*
Number them continuing from the highest existing spike number.
### Category C: Standard Options
- `/gsd-plan-phase` — Start planning the real implementation
- `/gsd-add-phase` — Add a phase based on spike findings
- `/gsd-spike` — Spike additional ideas
- `/gsd-explore` — Continue exploring
- Other
### Presenting the Options
Present all applicable categories, then ask the user which direction to go. If the user picks a frontier or integration spike, write the spike definitions directly into `.planning/spikes/MANIFEST.md` (appending to the existing table) and kick off `/gsd-spike` with those spikes pre-defined — the user shouldn't have to re-describe what was just proposed.
