Pull request overview

This PR refreshes the winapp-cli skill to reflect newer winapp CLI capabilities through v0.3.1, so Copilot can better recognize and guide Windows app packaging, debugging, certificate, store, and UI-automation workflows. It also keeps the generated skills index entry aligned with the skill’s updated frontmatter description.

Changes:

  • Expanded the winapp-cli skill description and capability list to cover newer commands such as run, unregister, ui, enhanced cert/manifest support, and the npm API.
  • Added new command-specific sections for recent winapp features and updated several capability descriptions with version context.
  • Updated docs/README.skills.md so the skills catalog reflects the revised winapp-cli metadata.
