aa7ed40cbe refine: Make writing-great-skills hunt no-ops at the sentence level
Add a Pruning directive to run the no-op test sentence by sentence and
delete whole failing sentences rather than trim words. References the
existing no-op test as single source of truth — no restated definition.

2e647324f9 refine: Tighten review skill — fail-fast ref check, single-sourced rules, no-op cuts
- Validate the fixed point resolves and diff is non-empty before spawning sub-agents
- Single-source the tooling-enforced and two-axis rationale (point to Why two axes)
- Fix rerank contradiction: summarize worst issue per axis, not across axes
- Drop dead "Read X, then read the diff" preambles from both briefs

Adds a new engineering skill that turns loose ideas with many
