//! Skill Safety Gate
//!
//! Provides validation for skills before they are registered in the registry.
//! This is the first line of defense against malicious or malformed skills
//! being injected into the system prompt.
//!
//! ## Extension Point
//!
//! `SkillValidator` is a trait — consumers can replace `DefaultSkillValidator`
//! with a custom implementation (e.g., LLM-based content review, policy engine).
