docs(website): dedicated page per bundled + optional skill (#14929)
Generates a full dedicated Docusaurus page for every one of the 132 skills
(73 bundled + 59 optional) under website/docs/user-guide/skills/{bundled,optional}/<category>/.
Each page carries the skill's description, metadata (version, author, license,
dependencies, platform gating, tags, related skills cross-linked to their own
pages), and the complete SKILL.md body that Hermes loads at runtime.

Previously the two catalog pages just listed skills with a one-line blurb and
no way to see what the skill actually did — users had to go read the source
repo. Now every skill has a browsable, searchable, cross-linked reference in
the docs.

- website/scripts/generate-skill-docs.py — generator that reads skills/ and
  optional-skills/, writes per-skill pages, regenerates both catalog indexes,
  and rewrites the Skills section of sidebars.ts. Handles MDX escaping
  (outside fenced code blocks: curly braces, unsafe HTML-ish tags) and
  rewrites relative references/*.md links to point at the GitHub source.
- website/docs/reference/skills-catalog.md — regenerated; each row links to
  the new dedicated page.
- website/docs/reference/optional-skills-catalog.md — same.
- website/sidebars.ts — Skills section now has Bundled / Optional subtrees
  with one nested category per skill folder.
- .github/workflows/{docs-site-checks,deploy-site}.yml — run the generator
  before docusaurus build so CI stays in sync with the source SKILL.md files.

Build verified locally with `npx docusaurus build`. Only remaining warnings
are pre-existing broken link/anchor issues in unrelated pages.

Path skills/note-taking/obsidian

Reference: full SKILL.md

:::info The following is the complete skill definition that Hermes loads when this skill is triggered. This is what the agent sees as instructions when the skill is active. :::

Obsidian Vault

Location: Set via OBSIDIAN_VAULT_PATH environment variable (e.g. in ~/.hermes/.env).

If unset, defaults to ~/Documents/Obsidian Vault.

Note: Vault paths may contain spaces - always quote them.

Read a note

VAULT="${OBSIDIAN_VAULT_PATH:-$HOME/Documents/Obsidian Vault}"
cat "$VAULT/Note Name.md"

List notes

VAULT="${OBSIDIAN_VAULT_PATH:-$HOME/Documents/Obsidian Vault}"

# All notes
find "$VAULT" -name "*.md" -type f

# In a specific folder
ls "$VAULT/Subfolder/"
VAULT="${OBSIDIAN_VAULT_PATH:-$HOME/Documents/Obsidian Vault}"

# By filename
find "$VAULT" -name "*.md" -iname "*keyword*"

# By content
grep -rli "keyword" "$VAULT" --include="*.md"

Create a note

VAULT="${OBSIDIAN_VAULT_PATH:-$HOME/Documents/Obsidian Vault}"
cat > "$VAULT/New Note.md" << 'ENDNOTE'
# Title

Content here.
ENDNOTE

Append to a note

VAULT="${OBSIDIAN_VAULT_PATH:-$HOME/Documents/Obsidian Vault}"
echo "
New content here." >> "$VAULT/Existing Note.md"

Obsidian links notes with [[Note Name]] syntax. When creating notes, use these to link related content.
