chore: add standards-version frontmatter to skills and rules (#1)

TMHSDigital · web-flow · commit 3801dacec10a · 2026-04-24T11:44:17.000-04:00
Phase 1 of the agent-file drift checker work (TMHSDigital/Developer-Tools-Directory Issue #1). Adds `standards-version: 1.6.3` to YAML frontmatter of every SKILL.md and .mdc rule file in this repo. Mechanical change, no content edits. The standards-version field enables the drift checker (Phase 2) to compare each file against the current meta-repo standards version.
