Extends the Windows-gating work to the optional-skills/ tree. Every
SKILL.md that previously omitted the platforms: field now carries an
explicit declaration, which Hermes's loader (agent.skill_utils.
skill_matches_platform) honors to skip-load on incompatible OSes.

5 skills gated from Windows (platforms: [linux, macos]):
mlops/flash-attention - Flash Attention wheels are Linux-first; Windows
install requires building from source with CUDA
mlops/faiss - faiss-gpu has no Windows wheel; gate rather than
leak partial (faiss-cpu) support
mlops/nemo-curator - NVIDIA NeMo ecosystem has no first-class Windows path
mlops/slime - Megatron+SGLang RL stack is Linux-only in practice
mlops/whisper - openai-whisper + ffmpeg setup on Windows is
non-trivial; gate until Windows install stanza lands
Methodology: scanned every SKILL.md for Windows-hostile signals
(apt-get, brew, systemd, osascript, ptrace, X11 binaries, POSIX-only
Python APIs, Docker POSIX $(pwd) bind-mounts, explicit 'linux-only' /
'macos-only' text). 3 skills flagged as having hard signals on review:
docker-management and qdrant only had POSIX $(pwd) docker examples and
the tools themselves (Docker Desktop, Qdrant) run fine on Windows —
declared ALL. whisper had an apt/brew ffmpeg install path and nothing
else but the openai-whisper Windows install story is rough enough to
warrant gating.
Strict-over-lenient policy: when in doubt, gate. Easier to un-gate after
verified Windows support lands than to leak partial support that
manifests as mid-task failures for Windows users.
