 *      checkout (monorepo dev mode) — both are local disk, dev escape hatches.
 *   2. the connected pod — GET /api/hub/skills/system (pod-first: production
 *      users get whatever skill packages their pod actually serves, not a
 *      snapshot baked into this CLI's npm release).
 *   3. bundled skills/ inside this package (production / published npm,
 *      offline, or pod unreachable).
 *
 * If none resolve, prints a manual install command and returns false.
