MCP, skill and tool rows in Settings say "Updated 5m ago" beside how
they're reached and who gets them. updated_at now means a change to an
extension's settings (an edit, or any Access save): runs, connections and
MCP syncs keep their own last_checked_at / last_synced_at and no longer
touch it.

The longest runbook a skill may save and how much of it load_skill hands
back are now set on Settings > General (skill_body_max_chars,
skill_body_shown_chars), defaulting to AppData.SkillBodyMaxChars and
SkillBodyShownChars. Saving, confirming and proposing a skill check the
install's limit; a skill saved before it was lowered can still be toggled.

A skill is a runbook: a name, a unique slug, a one-line description of when
it applies, and the markdown body. A run only ever sees the slug and
description (one load_skill tool carries them), and reads the whole body
only when it calls the tool, so a long runbook costs nothing until needed.
Skills are the third extension kind beside MCP servers and custom tools, on
the same botExtensionsSql path, so per-bot, per-workspace and all-bots
grants work the same way, and attachDefaultExtensions hands an every-bot
skill to new bots. load_skill is a reserved tool name, so a custom tool
cannot shadow it, and a built-in wins a clash.
Managed on Settings > Skills; ExtensionRow links each kind to its own page
and a skill never reports a failure, since nothing connects or runs.
