feat(skills): Add native SkillScan phase 1 for skills (#3033)

* Add phase 1 skill static scanning

* Rework SkillScan phase 1 as native scanner

* refactor(skillscan): align phase 1 with trimmed RFC contract

- SecurityFinding: 7 fields (rule_id, severity, file, line, message,
  remediation, evidence); category/analyzer derive from the rule_id
  prefix, confidence/column/fingerprint/metadata removed
- scan_archive_preflight()/scan_skill_dir() are pure functions: no
  ScanContext, no policy schema; CRITICAL-blocks is a code constant and
  skill_scan.enabled is applied by enforce_static_scan()/callers
- secret-* evidence is redacted before findings leave the scanner
- de-dup keys on (rule_id, file, line) so repeated occurrences keep
  distinct locations for agent self-correction
- cloud-metadata detection consolidated into network-cloud-metadata
- nested zip members get a one-level stdlib magic-byte peek; an
  executable member escalates package-nested-archive to CRITICAL
- install metadata sidecar removed (Phase 7 decides if it is needed)
- rule specs moved next to their analyzers; skillscan/rules/ removed
- tests updated + new anchors: redaction, dedup lines, nested-zip
  escalation, single cloud-metadata rule, bundled-skill zero-CRITICAL

* fix(skillscan): tighten reverse-shell/secret/archive scan rules from review

Address PR #3033 review feedback on the native SkillScan analyzers:

- Reverse-shell false positives: split shell detection by signal strength
  (/dev/tcp/, nc -e stay CRITICAL; bash -i, mkfifo -> new HIGH
  shell-reverse-shell-heuristic, warn->LLM). The Python check is now
  AST-anchored on real socket.socket/os.dup2/subprocess call sites instead
  of raw-text substring matching, so prose/docstrings no longer hard-block.
- Secret evidence: _redact_secret_evidence returns [redacted] with no secret
  bytes (was value[:6], which leaked 2 real token bytes past the prefix).
- Archive DoS: cap outer archive member count (_MAX_ARCHIVE_MEMBERS=4096);
  scan_archive_preflight early-aborts with a package-too-many-members CRITICAL
  finding (routes through the existing blocked->400 fail-closed path).
- shell-destructive-command: broaden the rm -rf matcher to sensitive system
  roots (/home, /usr, /*, --no-preserve-root /) while leaving safe subpaths
  unflagged.
- Dead code: collapse _decode_text_for_analysis to a single decode path and
  drop the unused _TEXT_SUFFIXES set and _has_text_shebang helper.
- local_skill_storage: document why the host_path branch keeps app_config
  possibly-None (lazy kill-switch resolution; avoids eager get_app_config in
  config-free environments such as CI).

Tests: new negative/positive coverage in test_skillscan_native.py. Full
backend suite 6616 passed, 26 skipped.

 When you install `.skill` archives through the Gateway, DeerFlow accepts standard optional frontmatter metadata such as `version`, `author`, and `compatibility` instead of rejecting otherwise valid external skills.
 
+Skill installs and agent-managed skill edits run through **SkillScan**, a native deterministic safety scanner before the LLM-based skill scanner. Phase 1 runs offline with no Semgrep/OpenGrep dependency, blocks high-confidence `CRITICAL` findings such as private keys or shell execution, and passes warning findings to the LLM scanner for contextual review. Set `skill_scan.enabled: false` in `config.yaml` to disable only the deterministic analyzers; safe archive extraction and the LLM scanner still run.
+
 Tools follow the same philosophy. DeerFlow comes with a core toolset — web search, web fetch, rendered web capture, file operations, bash execution — and supports custom tools via MCP servers and Python functions. Swap anything. Add anything.
 
 Gateway-generated follow-up suggestions now normalize both plain-string model output and block/list-style rich content before parsing the JSON array response, so provider-specific content wrappers do not silently drop suggestions.

   - `skills/describe.py` — `build_describe_skill_tool(catalog)` builds the `describe_skill` tool as a closure; `build_skill_search_setup(skills, enabled, ...)` produces a `SkillSearchSetup(describe_skill_tool, skill_names)` that is wired into both the LangGraph agent factory (`agent.py`) and the embedded client (`client.py`).
 - **Slash activation**: `/skill-name task` loads that enabled skill's `SKILL.md` for the current model call only. The resolver rejects leading whitespace, missing separators, reserved channel commands (`/new`, `/help`, `/bootstrap`, `/status`, `/models`, `/memory`, `/goal`), disabled skills, and skills outside a custom agent's whitelist.
 - **Installation**: `POST /api/skills/install` extracts .skill ZIP archive to custom/ directory
+- **SkillScan**: `packages/harness/deerflow/skills/skillscan/` is the native deterministic scanner for `.skill` archives and agent-managed skill writes. It runs offline before the LLM scanner, emits structured findings (`rule_id`, `severity`, `file`, `line`, `message`, `remediation`, redacted `evidence` — category/analyzer are encoded in the `rule_id` prefix), blocks `CRITICAL`, and passes warning findings into `scan_skill_content()`. `scan_archive_preflight()` / `scan_skill_dir()` are pure sync functions (dispatch off the event loop); `enforce_static_scan()` applies the blocking policy and the `skill_scan.enabled` kill switch. Do not add Semgrep/OpenGrep or YAML rule-engine dependencies to the core path; Phase 1 rule specs live in Python constants next to their analyzers in `skillscan/orchestrator.py`.
