feat(fiction-assistance): register plugin with full bespoke command set

Browse Source 
Snapshot of the fiction-assistance plugin in its original Universalis-
specific form before generalization. Adds the missing plugin.json
manifest (subdirectory command paths explicitly listed), moves the two
stray root-level review files into their proper homes (review-all.md
into the reviewing-fiction skill, review-final.md as a command with
frontmatter), and registers the plugin in the marketplace.

Preserved here so the original card-generation and vault-maintenance
commands remain recoverable when the plugin is reduced to a portable
guidance-and-analysis subset in the next commit.

# Reviewing Fiction
This skill explains how to perform a comprehensive fiction review.
## When to Use This Skill
Use this skill when:
- User requests a comprehensive review of fiction
- Analyzing a story, novel, or manuscript
- Providing structured feedback on creative writing
- User asks "review my story" or "what do you think of this draft"
Do NOT use this skill for:
- Quick grammar checks (use editing tools)
- Plot brainstorming (use creative writing skills)
- Single-aspect feedback (character analysis only, etc.)
## Quick Start
### Short Fiction, Single File
Given that the user provides a story (in context or a filename).
You will:
1. Read the story/file.
2. Apply the scene template to each scene.
3. Create a comprehensive review document.
4. Add final assessment.
Output: `Review of [Title] - YMD.md`
## Core Workflow
**Short Fiction, Single File** - The strategy for short fiction is slightly different as all the scenes are in one file. Tasks are not required but may be used if considered appropriate.
**Long Fiction, Multiple Files** - To avoid overloading the context window use Task and Todos frequently and strategically while updating an external document as you go. Don't keep it all in your head (context). Pass a scene/chapter filename and the template to the Task and have it perform the update. Only read the result for the final review.
### Scene Review Method
- Identify the output file. Prompt the user if needed. Suggest "Review of TITLE - YMD.md" as a default.
- Repeat the template for every scene in the piece.
- If there are multiple files (scenes, chapters, etc.) then start at the natural start and work to the natural end.
- After each scene, update the document. Do not attempt to keep everything in the context for later (it may compact at any time).
- Use Todos to keep track of outstanding work (again, risk of compaction).
### Scene Review Template
For each scene, use the following template:
- **Scene Template**: [Scene Template](Template.md) - Apply this structure to each scene
### Story Review
Once all scenes are reviewed, add a final review of the work.
```
# Final Review
[What was good? Great?]
[Where did it fall short? Is it a problem or just something to keep in mind?]
[Is the plot clear? What was the climax? Was it earned and satisfying?]
[Did the resolution actually resolve the conflict? What questions is the reader left with? Is that a good thing?]
[Discuss the pacing and scene flow. Mention any scenes that aren't earing their space.]
[Discuss any standout characters. Optionally: any characters who may have unmet potential.]
[What're the overarching themes? Are they strong? What supports them?]
[What's the market fit? Is this professional level for that market?]
[Optional: Discuss any specific action steps needed.]
[What do you think about the piece? This is your space to share whatever comes to mind.]
```
# Considerations
- When something is incorrect, be clear and objective.
- When something is confusing, explain what the reader might be led to believe—remember the author may be trusting the reader as well.
- When something could be more professional, be clear about the rule and provide multiple examples.
- When the author does something well, be sure to call it out. A review is a rough ride and it's good to showcase the wins.
- Fiction is a subjective experience and authors are invested in their work. Don't avoid criticism, but do think about how it will taken.
