feat(me): add lifecycle skills

[baleen37]

Summary

• Add explicit /build, /test, and /review lifecycle skills for the me plugin.
• Keep /ship as the existing explicit fan-out launch workflow and add lifecycle tests for all four skills.
• Document the new skills and allow plugins/*/skills/build/SKILL.md through the root build/ ignore rule.

Tests

• bats tests/me/me-specific.bats
• bats tests/frontmatter_tests.bats
• bun run test
• bun run check:codex

Summary by CodeRabbit

• New Features

  • Added /build skill with explicit incremental implementation workflow (scope clarification, code inspection, minimal tests, verification).
  • Added /test skill for discovering, adding, and running focused test suites with subagent coordination.
  • Added /review skill with structured checklist (correctness, security, coverage, maintainability, architecture, performance) and parallel subagent dispatch.

• Documentation

  • Updated lifecycle workflow documentation with explicit Build and Verify subsections.

• Tests

  • Enhanced verification tests for skill definitions and frontmatter validation.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

This PR introduces three new workflow skills (/build, /test, /review) to the "me" plugin. The /build and /test skills guide incremental implementation and testing, the /review skill structures multi-axis code review with parallel subagents, and the lifecycle documentation and test suite are updated to reflect the complete four-skill workflow.

Changes

Lifecycle Skills Implementation

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Lifecycle documentation plugins/me/README.md	README now documents the expanded lifecycle with explicit Build subsection (build, setup, git-workflow-and-versioning, deprecation-and-migration), Test step under Verify, and new Review subsection delegating to specialist subagents.
Build workflow skill plugins/me/skills/build/SKILL.md	The /build skill defines a user-invoked incremental implementation process with scope clarification, code inspection, minimal test addition, focused verification, optional subagent dispatch, and risk reporting.
Test workflow skill plugins/me/skills/test/SKILL.md	The /test skill specifies test discovery, focused test coverage addition, failure reproduction, appropriately scoped test execution, and coordination with test-engineer and optional security/code-review subagents.
Review workflow skill plugins/me/skills/review/SKILL.md	The /review skill establishes a prioritized review checklist (correctness, security, test coverage, maintainability, architecture, performance), step-by-step evaluation workflow, parallel subagent dispatch instructions, and a structured final report template with verdicts, blocking/non-blocking items, and verification details.
Build directory ignore rules .gitignore	Plugin skill build directories are now ignored, with explicit negation to preserve SKILL.md files within those directories.
Lifecycle skill validation tests tests/me/me-specific.bats	Generalized loop-based tests verify all four lifecycle skills (build, test, review, ship) exist and contain required frontmatter, replacing the prior single-skill focus.
