The skip-git ignore test asserted the error payload while relying on
exit 0; since the output() guard an error payload also exits 1, so the
test now captures the payload from the exec failure and pins both.

* feat(cli): add --skip-skills and --index-only flags to analyze command
The `installSkills()` call in `generateAIContextFiles()` runs
unconditionally, injecting 6 skill files into `.claude/skills/gitnexus/`
even when `--skip-agents-md` is passed. This is problematic for bulk
indexing operations on read-only mirrors or third-party repos.
Add two new flags:
- `--skip-skills`: suppress standard GitNexus skill file injection
- `--index-only`: pure index mode that suppresses all file injection
(AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, and skills), writing only to `.gitnexus/`
This gives users three levels of control:
- `--skip-agents-md` — suppress only root context files
- `--skip-skills` — suppress only skill injection
- `--index-only` — suppress everything (pure indexing)
Discovery context: while bulk-indexing 176 repos with
`--skip-agents-md`, all 144 indexed repos were contaminated with
`.claude/skills/gitnexus/` files requiring manual cleanup.
* fix(cli): address PR #742 review — gate community skills, drop dangling refs, add tests
Bot review (#742) flagged three issues with the original commit:
1. `--index-only --skills` still wrote community-derived skill files
to `.claude/skills/generated/`. The `--skills` branch in analyze.ts
was not gated by `skipAll`, so the "skip all file injection" contract
was violated. Gate `generateSkillFiles()` with `!skipAll` so
`--index-only` truly wins over `--skills`.
2. `--skip-skills` without `--skip-agents-md` produced AGENTS.md /
CLAUDE.md that still referenced `.claude/skills/gitnexus/*/SKILL.md`
files that were never installed — every agent load incurred 6
failed reads. Pass `skipSkills` through to `generateGitNexusContent()`
and omit the standard-skill rows (and the entire `## CLI` heading
when the table is empty). Community skills, when present via
`--skills`, are unaffected.
3. No filesystem tests for `skipSkills` / `indexOnly`. Add three
regression guards to `test/unit/ai-context.test.ts`:
- `.claude/skills/gitnexus/` is NOT created when skipSkills=true
- Nothing is written when both skipAgentsMd and skipSkills are true
(the resolved-flag state from --index-only)
- AGENTS.md/CLAUDE.md routing table omits standard skill references
when skipSkills=true, but preserves the load-bearing imperative
sections (Always Do / Never Do / Resources)
* test(cli): PR 1485 review follow-ups (help text, gate test, --skip-skills docs)
- Assert --skip-skills and --index-only in analyze --help (skip-git-cli.test.ts).
- Export shouldGenerateCommunitySkillFiles; unit-test index-only+skills gate.
- Clarify --skip-skills does not suppress --skills community files; --index-only for full skip.

* fix(cli): warn when --index-only silently overrides --skills
Address review findings on PR 1485 follow-ups:
- analyze.ts emits a one-line note when both --index-only and --skills
are set, so users see why a pipeline re-index ran with no skill files
written.
- index.ts --skills help text now flags the --index-only override.
- shouldGenerateCommunitySkillFiles JSDoc documents the dual role of
the gate (community skills + AGENTS.md/CLAUDE.md re-generation).
- skip-git-cli.test.ts pins the override-warning surface end-to-end.

* fix(cli): keep GitNexus ignores inside .gitnexus
Avoid mutating analyzed repositories' root .gitignore while keeping generated GitNexus state untracked via .gitnexus/.gitignore.

* fix(cli): also use git info exclude for GitNexus storage
When an analyzed repo has a real .git directory, add .gitnexus/ to .git/info/exclude so local Git metadata ignores generated storage without touching root .gitignore.
Made-with: Cursor
* fix(cli): keep skip-git subdir indexes ignored
Ensure full analyze always writes the internal GitNexus ignore file so parent Git repositories stay clean for --skip-git subdirectory indexes.

Addresses all review items from @magyargergo and Copilot:
1. **Rename --no-git to --skip-git**: Commander.js treats --no-X flags
as negation of --X (stores as options.git = false, not options.noGit).
--skip-git maps correctly to options.skipGit.
2. **Fix false " Already up to date\ on non-git folders**: When
currentCommit is empty string, skip the cache check — we cannot
detect changes without git, so always rebuild.
3. **Replace isGitRepo() with hasGitDir()**: Use filesystem check
(statSync on .git) instead of shelling out to git CLI. Consistent,
faster, and works when git is not installed.
4. **Fix misleading warning**: Message now only fires when .git
directory is actually absent (not when git CLI fails).
5. **Add CLI integration tests**: Verify Commander maps --skip-git
correctly and that non-git folders are rejected without the flag.
