What	Flags use of experimental `allowed-tools` in frontmatter for portability awareness.
Why	`allowed-tools` is well supported in some agents (for example Claude Code) and uneven elsewhere. Callers need to know the skill may not constrain tools on every platform.

How to fix

Keep allowed-tools only when you target agents that honor it. Document the assumption in the body, or drop the field and express tool policy in prose for portable skills.
