[I] Fix the invalid capability tags and the wrong slash command in your-first-skill.md [magpie]
justinmclean opened a new issue, #974:
URL: https://github.com/apache/magpie/issues/974
## Summary
The beginner on-ramp page `docs/education/your-first-skill.md` gives two instructions that do
not work: three of the five example capability tags do not exist, and the command it tells the
reader to run for the authoring skill is not the skill's real name. Fix both.
## Background
This page is the first thing a new contributor reads before writing a skill, and both errors
land in their first ten minutes.
**Capability tags (Step 2).** The page suggests `capability:triage`, `capability:authoring`,
`capability:security`, `capability:release`, and `capability:contributor-growth`. Only the
first two exist. `docs/labels-and-capabilities.md` defines exactly ten skill capabilities, and
the last three are not among them — they appear zero times in `skills/`. Worse, Step 4 of the
same page tells the reader the validator checks the capability tag, so someone who picks one of
the invalid ones only finds out after writing their whole skill.
**Slash command.** The page says the authoring skill is run with `/write-skill`, in two places.
The skill's frontmatter name is `magpie-write-skill`, and `CONTRIBUTING.md` invokes it as
`/magpie-write-skill`.
## Where to look
- `docs/education/your-first-skill.md` lines 175-176 — the capability-tag list at the end of
Step 2.
- `docs/education/your-first-skill.md` line 33 and line 400 — the two `/write-skill` mentions.
- `docs/labels-and-capabilities.md` — the table of the ten valid skill capabilities, to pick
replacements from.
- `CONTRIBUTING.md` line 743 — an example of the correct slash-command form.
## Acceptance criteria
- [ ] Every capability tag listed on the page appears in the capability table in
`docs/labels-and-capabilities.md`.
- [ ] Both `/write-skill` mentions read `/magpie-write-skill`.
- [ ] No other file is changed.
- [ ] `prek run --all-files` passes.
## Estimated effort
~30-45 minutes for someone new to the codebase.
