Add adapter config docs, approval context env vars, and paperclip-create-agent skill
Export agentConfigurationDoc from all adapters for LLM reflection. Inject PAPERCLIP_APPROVAL_ID, PAPERCLIP_APPROVAL_STATUS, and PAPERCLIP_LINKED_ISSUE_IDS into local adapter environments. Update SKILL.md with approval handling procedure, issue-approval linking, and config revision documentation. Add new paperclip-create-agent skill for CEO-driven agent hiring workflows.

- For each linked issue:

- close it (`PATCH` status to `done`) if the approval fully resolves requested work, or

Always include links to the approval and issue in that comment.

|
||||
- **Budget**: auto-paused at 100%. Above 80%, focus on critical tasks only.
|

- **Escalate** via `chainOfCommand` when stuck. Reassign to manager or create a task for them.

## Comment Style (Required)
|
||||
|
||||
When posting issue comments, use concise markdown with:
|
||||
|
||||
- a short status line
|
||||
- bullets for what changed / what is blocked
|
||||
- links to related entities when available (`[Issue XYZ](/issues/<id>)`, `[Approval](/approvals/<id>)`, `[Agent](/agents/<id>)`)
