Summary

The prose gate's sentence-length rule read only paragraph inline units. So a sentence in a Markdown table cell was never counted. A table cell holds prose as a paragraph does. So each header and body cell is now its own sentence block, held to the same cap. Two short cells on one row never join into one sentence. A blockquoted table stays unread, as a blockquoted paragraph already is.

• .github/actions/prose-gate/prose_lint.py: extract_markdown builds a paragraph unit for each inline token under th_open or td_open, as it already did under paragraph_open. sentence-length is the only rule reading paragraph units, so no other rule starts reading cells.
• tests/test_prose_lint.py: new cases cover a body cell, a header cell, and two cells on one row judged apart. The structure test drops its table-row case, the exemption this issue ends.
• The table cells the stricter check reported in hub-authored content are reworded under the cap. Those cells are in AGENTS.md, WORKFLOW.md section 5, the local-strict-review skill, catalog/snippets/workflows/README.md, docs/host-setup.md, host-setup/windows/README.md, and scripts/README.md. The skill distributions are regenerated with scripts/build_dist.py.

Downstream effect. Carriers fetch the prose gate from the hub's main. Once this is promoted, a change touching a table row whose cell holds an over-cap sentence fails the gate there. The composite action runs diff-scoped, so only touched rows are read. That is the intended effect of the fix.

Closes on promotion: #3456

Verification

• The issue's repro now reports both probe.md:5 (the cell) and probe.md:7 (the paragraph).
• python3 scripts/prose_lint.py . over the whole tree reports no violations.
• python -m unittest discover -s tests passes on the final head. Its one failure on the first commit was the old table-row exemption this change ends.
• scripts/build_dist.py --check reports the generated distributions current. Docker markdownlint, cspell, and editorconfig-checker pass, and so do ruff check and ruff format.
• Six local-strict-review passes ran over the whole diff. Each of the first five found meaning drift or an ambiguous pronoun in a reworded cell, fixed in the commit after it. The sixth found no defect in this change.

Pre-existing findings, filed

• .github/actions/prose-gate/prose_lint.py:1103, pre-existing: rule_semicolon splits a table row on raw |, so an escaped \| splits a cell and raises a false semicolon finding. Filed as Read Table Cells From the Parser in the Semicolon Rule #3655.

What changed in this PR

This pull request extends the prose gate’s sentence-length check to Markdown table header and body cells while preserving the blockquote exclusion. It adds regression coverage, rewords affected documentation, and regenerates distributed skill content and source digests.

Changes:

• Treats each Markdown table cell as an independent sentence block.
• Adds coverage for body cells, header cells, separate cells, and preserved blockquote behavior.
• Updates documentation affected by the stricter check.
• Regenerates distributed skills and their source digests.
