Small docs fix, found the hard way: the "Installing a skill" section only covered first-time setup (marketplace add + one plugin install example). Nothing explained how to pick up plugins added after that — which is exactly what just happened trying to install wiki-governor on a laptop that had the marketplace added a while back: /plugin install wiki-governor@hefrock-agent-skills returned "not found," even though it was already merged to main. Root cause was a stale local marketplace listing, not a repo problem.

Change

Adds a new "Updating after new skills are added to this repo" subsection:

/plugin marketplace update hefrock-agent-skills
  • Documents this as the required refresh step before installing anything new
  • Clarifies the split that made the failure confusing: already-installed plugins pick up SKILL.md content changes automatically (no version pinning in marketplace.json), but a plugin new to the marketplace still needs its own install after the refresh
  • Manual (non-plugin) path gets a git pull origin main note it was missing

The "Installing a skill" section only covered first-time setup — nothing
explained how to pick up new plugins added after the initial
marketplace add. Ran into this directly: /plugin install wiki-governor
returned "not found" because the local marketplace listing was never
refreshed, even though the plugin was already merged to main.

- Document /plugin marketplace update <name> as the required refresh
  step before installing anything new
- Clarify the split: already-installed plugins pick up SKILL.md content
  changes automatically (no version pinning in marketplace.json); new
  plugins still need an explicit install after the refresh
- Manual (non-plugin) path: note git pull as the update step
