Done when

• All listed pages have a valid applies_to block per the skill's reference set.
• A PR addressing this issue is merged.

Notes

• contribute-docs/how-to/cumulative-docs/reference.md (no frontmatter at all) and release-notes/elastic-cloud-serverless/index.md were also identified but excluded to stay within the 20-file cap.
• raw-migrated-files/ pages and _snippets/ files were intentionally skipped as they are not primary content pages.
• For files using stack: all or similar, the ga lifecycle with no version is the likely intent, but confirm with the page author before merging fixes.
