Claude Code applies SKILL.md effort: as output_config.effort; any change from
the session baseline invalidates the prompt cache at BOTH scope boundaries
(entry + exit, the latter often machine-fired via subagent-completion
notification). The reporter's owned measurement confirms it: /gsd-progress
(effort:low) in a medium session → cache_creation 63,404 (entry) + 18,589
(exit), while a no-effort skill shows none. ~76% of invocations paid in full.
Fix (trek-e AC#2/AC#4): convertClaudeCommandToClaudeSkill no longer emits
effort: into Claude-runtime skill frontmatter (src/runtime-artifact-conversion.cts
+ duplicated bin/install.js). normalizeClaudeSkillEffort removed (dead). The six
declaring skills (plan-phase/execute-phase/autonomous/next/progress/stats) no
longer carry effort. Source command files keep effort (input, used elsewhere);
the separate agent-effort surface (#3160) is untouched.
Tests: install-runtime-artifacts #769 block flipped to assert effort is ABSENT
from installed SKILL.md + converter output (the AC#4 behavioral coverage).

* fix(#3039): clamp max/xhigh effort to high for Claude-runtime skills
effort: max in plan-phase, execute-phase, and autonomous SKILL.md frontmatter
was passed through as output_config.effort, which the Anthropic API rejects
when extended thinking is disabled (400: effort 'max' is not supported when
thinking is disabled on this model). The frontmatter is static at install
time and the installer cannot know whether thinking will be on or off at
invocation.
normalizeClaudeSkillEffort now clamps both 'max' and 'xhigh' to 'high' —
the maximum value that works in both thinking states on all supported models.
Applied in both src/runtime-artifact-conversion.cts and bin/install.js.

Phase B-provide of epic #1258. Adds a build-generated skills/ dir +
a skills manifest field so plugin-installed GSD exposes gsd-core:<skill>
the native Claude Code way. Closes the gap where plugin-only installs
lacked the skill surface because bin/install.js never ran.
- scripts/gen-plugin-skills.cjs: build step converting commands/gsd/*.md
to skills/gsd-<stem>/SKILL.md via convertClaudeCommandToClaudeSkill
- .claude-plugin/plugin.json: add "skills": "./skills/"
- package.json: add skills to files, gen:plugin-skills to build chain
- tests/issue-766-plugin-manifest.test.cjs: Section H conformance
(manifest field + dir + frontmatter + count parity) + C2 skills symlink
- docs/adr/766-*.md: dated amendment adding skills surface row
- .changeset/rapid-bears-hum.md: type Added
- skills/: 69 generated gsd-<stem>/SKILL.md files (build-committed)
Closes#1596
