Cal Corum 1f70264e73 Archive create-skill, orchestrator, and notediscovery skills
- create-skill: superseded by native /skill command and official docs
- orchestrator: superseded by native Agent Teams (/agent-teams)
- notediscovery: redundant with cognitive-memory MCP (superior local-first implementation)

All moved to _archive/ for historical reference.
