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.
