Silence render-disposed spam, unbreak bundled skills, drop board wake
Three independently ugly bugs that all fed the same log flood:
* Electron's `WebFrameMain.send` writes every "Render frame was disposed"
to stderr via `console.error`. When the worker fans a second
agent-event past a reloading renderer, we produced thousands of
identical lines and stalled the main loop on stderr I/O. Added a
`mainFrame.detached` guard so the send is short-circuited before
Electron's own catch block fires, and installed a targeted filter in
`suppress-warnings.ts` (now actually imported from the entry point)
so the specific `console.error("Error sending from webFrameMain:"…)`
noise never reaches the terminal. Any other payload still surfaces.
* `dispatchAgentMessage` accepted the human-reader sentinel as a wake
target when an agent replied to `__board__` — `wakeAgentIfPossible`
then called `db.getAgent("__board__")`, threw, and the dispatcher
kept repeating on every send. Strip `HUMAN_SENDER_ID` at
`resolveMessageWakeTargets`, and keep a defense-in-depth guard in the
heartbeat so a stray caller (future automation fan-out) cannot
reintroduce the crash.
* Pi's skills loader rejects any SKILL.md whose frontmatter `name`
diverges from its parent directory. The four bundled `my-writing-style`
copies declared `name: writing-style-skill`, so every install emitted
a warning and dropped the skill. They also lived as orphan gitlinks
(mode 160000 without .gitmodules), and the global `*.md` gitignore
hid every other SKILL.md from version control. Fixed the frontmatter
to match the dir, converted the dangling submodules to plain trees,
and allowlisted `builtin-skills/**/*.md` so a fresh clone carries the
catalogue instead of silently losing it.

## Provide Context with Exceptions
|
||||
|
||||
Each exception should provide enough context to determine the source and location of an error. Create informative error messages that describe the operation that failed and the type of failure.
|
||||
|
||||
**Incorrect (no context):**
|
||||
|
||||
```java
|
||||
throw new Exception("Error occurred");
|
||||
|
||||
throw new RuntimeException("Failed");
|
||||
|
||||
throw new DataAccessException("Query failed");
|
||||
|
||||
// Stack trace alone doesn't tell you which order, which customer
|
||||
catch (SQLException e) {
|
||||
throw new RuntimeException(e);
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Correct (rich context):**
|
||||
|
||||
```java
|
||||
throw new OrderProcessingException(
|
||||
String.format("Failed to process order %s for customer %s: %s",
|
||||
orderId, customerId, "Insufficient inventory for item SKU-12345"));
|
||||
|
||||
throw new ConfigurationException(
|
||||
"Cannot load configuration from " + configPath +
|
||||
". Expected format: YAML. Check file permissions and syntax.");
|
||||
|
||||
catch (SQLException e) {
|
||||
throw new DataAccessException(
|
||||
String.format("Failed to insert order %s into table %s. " +
|
||||
"Constraint violated: %s",
|
||||
order.getId(), "orders", e.getMessage()),
|
||||
e); // Preserve original exception
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Include in exception messages:**
|
||||
- What operation was being attempted
|
||||
- What data was involved (IDs, names, quantities)
|
||||
- Why it failed (the specific error condition)
|
||||
- Preserve the original exception when wrapping
