Teknium e3921e7ca4 docs(skills): compress 74 built-in skill descriptions to <=60 chars

Target: every skill's description fits in a one-line gateway menu and
leads with trigger keywords an agent would match on. Drops filler like
'Use this skill to', 'A skill for', 'This skill provides'.

Before: max description length was 791 chars (architecture-diagram),
74 of 81 built-in skills were >60 chars.

After: max 60, mean 54, all 81 built-in skills <=60.

Rewritten with double-quoted YAML scalars to preserve Chinese/arrow
glyphs (baoyu-comic, yuanbao, youtube-content).

Notes

Bridge must be on the same local network as the machine running Hermes
First run requires physically pressing the button on the Hue Bridge to authorize
Colors only work on color-capable bulbs (not white-only models)
Light and room names are case-sensitive — use openhue get light to check exact names
Works great with cron jobs for scheduled lighting (e.g. dim at bedtime, bright at wake)
