/**
 * base.skill.ts
 *
 * Defines the abstract base class that every Playwright Pilot AI skill must extend.
 *
 * A "skill" is a single-purpose analysis module that inspects a PageAnalysis
 * object and returns a SkillResult containing locators, optional generated code,
 * element contexts, and a confidence score. Skills are run locally without any
 * AI calls and are orchestrated by the SkillOrchestrator.
 *
 * The base class provides:
 *   - The abstract name and execute() contract that all skills must implement.
 *   - A protected buildResult() helper so each skill can construct a well-formed
 *     SkillResult without repeating boilerplate.
 *
 * Role in the overall flow:
 *   SkillOrchestrator → BaseSkill.execute() → SkillResult
