feat(plugin): make using-scribe skill actively pull standing rules

The SessionStart push channel cannot reliably deliver a sensitive API
token to the hook subprocess (upstream Claude Code bug anthropics/
claude-code#62442 — sensitive plugin userConfig is not persisted and is
absent on a normal session). Stop depending on that push for standing
rules: make the using-scribe bootstrap skill own the load instead.

- description: name the FIRST ACTION (list_always_on_rules + enter_project
  when a repo/project is in scope) so it auto-surfaces at session start
- add a 'Do this first' block instructing an active pull; demote the
  SessionStart hook to a bonus, not a precondition (it fail-opens and may
  be absent)
- reflex step 2: rules come from list_always_on_rules(), not from an
  assumed SessionStart injection

The hook + hooks.json are left in place: they fail-open and resume adding
value automatically if #62442 is fixed or the token is made non-sensitive.

Refs #755 (Phase 1: push channel descoped to optional; pull is load-bearing)

## Do this first (every session)
**Pull the standing rules yourself — do not wait for them to be handed to you.**
At the start of a session, before substantive work, call
`list_always_on_rules()` to load the operator's always-on rules. If the working
repo maps to a Scribe project (you're in a known repo, or `list_repo_bindings`
shows a binding), call `enter_project(id)` instead/as-well — it returns the
project plus its applicable rules, open tasks, and recent notes in one shot.
Do this actively. A SessionStart hook *may* also inject a rule index, but treat
that as a bonus, not a precondition: it can be absent (e.g. when the instance is
unreachable, or the token didn't reach the hook), so the reliable path is this
explicit pull. Rules loaded this way are **binding** for the session.

2. **Standing rules are binding.** The SessionStart context lists the operator's
always-on rule titles. Treat them as binding. Pull full text with

When a project is in scope, `enter_project(id)` also returns its applicable

3. **Update over duplicate.** When recording, prefer updating an existing
note/rule/task over creating a new one. Search first; revise what's there.
