Goal

Fix two behavioural gaps in the task suite skills.

Why

task-orchestrate started at implement, not new. When no drafted PR
matched the request, orchestrate's Step 1 prompt framed the resolve subagent
as "resolve an existing PR's spec", biasing it past /task-implement's
draft-new gate into a one-shot auto-draft straight to code -- skipping the
/task-new brainstorm.
task-review checked Steps, not the fix. Review mapped PR-body Steps to
the diff and ran lint/typecheck/test, but never confirmed the change actually
resolves the PR's Goal, and ignored the smoke command the Toolchain
block defines.

Steps

task-orchestrate + task-implement: make /task-new (brainstorm a full
spec) the default no-PR entry; one-shot auto-draft is now opt-in (explicit
one-shot ask only). Updated Step 1 subagent prompt, Quick Reference, Overview,
When-to-Use, picker, and descriptions.
task-review: add Step 9 — efficacy check that runs the Toolchain
smoke command as end-to-end proof the Goal is met (reasons from the diff +
tests when none is declared). Add a 4th review question, an efficacy finding
kind + smoke check, fold efficacy into the verdict (ok requires Goal met,
unmet → blocking), renumber subsequent steps and all cross-refs, add a
Common Mistakes bullet, update the description.

Notes

Docs-only changes to three SKILL.md files; no code. Design decisions confirmed
with the user: /task-new default + one-shot opt-in; efficacy = smoke run only
(no required regression test).

task-orchestrate delegated resolve to /task-implement with a prompt
framed as "resolve an existing PR's spec", biasing the subagent past
the draft-new gate. Make /task-new the default no-PR entry across
task-orchestrate and task-implement; one-shot auto-draft is now
opt-in (explicit one-shot ask only).

task-review checked Steps->diff but never confirmed the change
resolves the PR's Goal. Add Step 9 efficacy check (runs the Toolchain
`smoke` command as end-to-end proof; reasons from the diff when none
declared), a 4th review question, an `efficacy` finding kind, and fold
it into the verdict. Renumber subsequent steps + cross-refs.
