Key changes made:

• Frontmatter: Removed tags (not part of the spec), tightened description to be more concise while keeping trigger guidance
• Added Quick Start: Numbered workflow giving the agent a clear execution path
• Flattened structure: Promoted bold-label sections to proper ### headings under a single ## Output Structure parent — cleaner hierarchy, easier scanning
• Trimmed redundancy: Removed the "Cited By (Session #)" → "Session #" in Authorities Index, collapsed "Consensus vs. Divergence" from separate bullet groups into labeled inline entries, shortened table column headers
• Renamed Guidelines → Checks: Matches the skill authoring convention for pitfall/validation sections
• Removed "Output Structure / Process" dual label — single clear heading
• Line count: Reduced from 107 to ~95 lines while preserving all domain content and table templates
