This is looking great - thanks for taking the time to incorporate the feedback (I know we've been through a few iterations) as I think this will be really usable as a set of skills.
I added one really tiny nitpick change just to ensure that nothing gets missed when working with it, but otherwise it'll be good to merge in.

Thanks for taking the time @aaronpowell. I will be migrating apps for the foreseeable future and will keep iterating while sticking to the "less is more" ethos. |

Adds the 'Oracle-to-PostgreSQL Migration Expert' Custom Agent, its associated skills, plugin manifest.
This custom agent is for helping users migrate application codebases from Oracle to Postgres.
This custom agent uses a 'gated' approach, never moving onto the next step without user approval.
The skills' syntax follow the 'Claude API Docs' best practices.
I constantly refine the custom agent by enhancing it's skillset with real-world occurrences of common migration errors and differences to look out for.
READMEs updated using 'npm run build'.
Type of Contribution
Additional Notes
I am currently working on an enterprise Oracle to Postgres migration exercise, converting legacy and modern application codebases. I created this custom agent to help the multiple developers on the team with instruction, guidance and achieving more consistent results.
