Add Gear Foundation Skills pack (vara-skills)

[ukint-vs]

Adds Gear Foundation Skills — the vara-skills pack — as a new section, modeled after the existing SKY-lv Skills entry (PR #300).

What it is: 21 skills teaching AI coding agents to build and ship Rust smart contracts on Vara Network with the Gear/Sails framework. Covers:

• Planning — idea-to-spec, gear-architecture-planner, sails-architecture, task-decomposer
• Implementation — sails-rust-implementer, sails-idl-client, sails-new-app
• Testing — sails-gtest, gtest-tdd-loop, sails-local-smoke
• Frontend & data — sails-frontend, sails-indexer
• On-chain — vara-wallet (agent deploys, calls methods, transfers tokens, monitors events)
• Lifecycle — sails-feature-workflow, sails-program-evolution, sails-dev-env
• Framework deep-dives — gear-gstd-api-map, gear-message-execution, awesome-sails-vft

Why it fits here: Cross-harness skill pack (Claude Code plugin, Codex install, OpenClaw wrapper) — matches the profile of SKY-lv Skills and the broader toolkit's agent/skill focus. MIT Licensed. Published by Gear Foundation.

The PR highlights 8 of the 21 skills in the listing (SKY-lv highlighted 6 of 30+) to keep the entry readable.
