feat(v0.6.5): execution-grounded skill-utility report (adam-skill-utility)

Ranks skills by good:bad outcome co-occurrence (Wilson LB + lift vs
baseline) over the journal's active_skills payloads — the SkillsInjector
(arXiv 2605.29794) execution-grounded utility signal Δ(s), computed from
data already collected, no training.

- reuses adam-score NEGATIVE_SIGNAL_TYPES + entrySeverity (single source of truth)
- registered in install.sh helper-script copy loop
- /reflect pre-step surfaces worst below-baseline skills to the USER as
  advisory (co-occurrence != causation; not fed to the analyst's proposal machinery)
- Test 119 added; full suite 141/141 green

// adam-skill-utility.mjs — execution-grounded per-skill utility report.
//
// Inspired by SkillsInjector (arXiv 2605.29794v1), which shows skill injection
// should be driven by execution-grounded *utility* Δ(t,s), not surface keyword
// match — and that some topically-relevant skills actively *lower* success.
// The paper learns Δ(t,s) from rollout outcomes. We don't train anything: the
// adam journal already attaches `active_skills` to both positive outcome events
// (task_completed, clean_recovery, correction_free_streak) and negative ones
// (dead_end, tool_error_loop, …). So we approximate Δ(s) as a co-occurrence
// ratio over the data we already collect.
//
// CAVEAT (honest): this is CO-OCCURRENCE, not causation. A skill active during
// a dead_end did not necessarily cause it. Read the report as "which skills
// correlate with friction", a prompt for review — never as proof.
//
// Metric, per skill active during scored events:
// pos / neg — count of positive / negative outcome events it co-occurred with
// share — pos / (pos+neg)
// lift — share global_baseline (>0 above baseline, <0 below)
// wLB — Wilson 95% lower bound of the positive proportion; ranks
// *reliably* below-baseline skills to the top (sample-aware)
// sevNeg — severity-weighted negative sum (adam SEVERITY_DIVISORS)
// topNeg — dominant negative event type
// Rows sorted worst-first (lowest wLB) so harmful/over-eager skills surface.
//
// CLI:
// adam-skill-utility.mjs [--home <path>] [--input <jsonl-path>]
// [--min <n>] [--days <n>] [--json]
// --min min event count (n) to treat a skill's signal as confident (default 8)
// --days only consider events within the last <n> days (default: all)
// --json emit machine-readable JSON instead of the text table
//
// Reuses adam-utils (jsonl IO) and adam-score (canonical NEGATIVE set +
// severity), so the positive/negative taxonomy stays single-sourced.
