Catalog changes:
- Added: find-skills (#1 on skills.sh, 657K installs), shadcn/ui (#5,
  130K), skill-creator (#26, 98K), agent-browser (#23, 120K)
- Removed from React pack: web-design-guidelines (thin wrapper that
  just fetches an external URL; redundant with the Vercel ecosystem
  version and userinterface-wiki)
- The old bundled skills (18 total, 11 web-frontend-focused) are no
  longer force-synced. The catalog now points to the better ecosystem
  versions from Vercel, Anthropic, and shadcn.

Reasoning: The original bundled skills were heavily web-frontend biased
with significant overlap (3 UI polish skills, 4 web audit skills). The
catalog should surface the highest-quality ecosystem skills rather than
force-installing duplicative bundled ones.
