fix: phantom-path sweep — 888 unresolvable references to zero
A directory reorg added a skills/ path segment; hundreds of references never
followed. This sweep repoints every path-like reference in SKILL.md, agents,
commands, orchestration, and templates to verified on-disk targets:

- 30 root commands + 19 root agents: missing skills/ segment inserted
- 7 c-level persona agents: 17 hallucinated reference filenames substituted
  with the real files (e.g. okr_execution.md -> process_frameworks.md)
- 5 research skills: phantom scripts/office/validate.py step replaced with a
  runnable stdlib zip-integrity check
- email agents: skills frontmatter corrected to productivity/email
- orchestration/ORCHESTRATION.md + templates: stale paths fixed;
  agent-template now requires trigger phrasing in descriptions (root cause)
- 76 more files across engineering, c-level-advisor, compliance-os,
  research-ops, ra-qm, marketing, productivity; dual-publish pairs mirrored
- dead refs dropped/replaced where no target ever existed (REGISTRY.md,
  trend_analyzer.py, cursor-microinteractions.md)

New: scripts/check_paths.py linter (CI gate G1) + narrow allowlist for
teaching examples. Verified: 540 files scanned, 0 unresolvable.
