cert lifecycle harness

A harness for guiding humans through the full lifecycle of an X.509/TLS certificate renewal, replacement, or migration in complex infrastructures (CDN / LB / K8s / self-hosted gateway / mTLS). The skill turns "generate a renewal script" into a rigorous assistant workflow: (1) split review into L3 / L2 / L1 layers so every reviewer has a bounded time budget; (2) treat the Agent as "safety officer + document engineer + trusted executor", not an autonomous SRE; (3) enforce a six-gate protocol before any write API is executed on behalf of the user, and never execute Delete; (4) classify asset discovery as a graph closure (domain ↔ certificate), with wildcard fan-out, cross-zone authorization boundaries, and shadow certificate provenance; (5) adapt to the upcoming CA/B Forum validity shrinkage timeline (398 → 200 → 100 → 47 days). Use this skill whenever the user's question is about renewing, migrating, auditing, or hardening TLS certificates across real production systems — especially when the risks "expire = outage" and "one wrong field = P0" apply. Not intended for one-off openssl req examples or pure PKI theory.
