Description

### Description
The WASM build-variant stub files (27 `_wasm.go` files across 6 packages: `pkg/console`, `pkg/workflow`, `pkg/parser`, `pkg/colorwriter`, `pkg/tty`, `pkg/styles`) are 81% undocumented (59 of 73 exported func/type declarations lack a doc comment), versus a 9.1% undocumented rate for the rest of the non-test Go codebase. `pkg/console` is the worst offender — live-verified: `console_wasm.go` has 32 exported func/type declarations and only 1 doc comment. Separately, `.github/skills/developer-code-organization/SKILL.md`'s "WASM Build-Variant Pattern" section is stale — it says "Seven files in `pkg/workflow/`" carry the pattern, but there are actually 27 files spanning 6 packages. Flagged in the 2026-09-15 Repository Quality Improvement Report.

### Expected Impact
Reduces risk that future contributors mis-scope new WASM stubs or violate the doc-comment convention used everywhere else in the codebase; corrects a skill doc that currently undersells the scope of the pattern by ~4x.

### Suggested Fix
1. Add doc comments to exported declarations in `pkg/console/*_wasm.go`, starting with `console_wasm.go` (highest-traffic, worst-documented file).
2. Update `.github/skills/developer-code-organization/SKILL.md`'s WASM section to reflect the actual 27-file/6-package scope, and add a short "Documentation Convention for Stubs" subsection with a one-line doc-comment template for future stub additions.

### Suggested Agent
New Agent (Go doc-comment pass) or code-simplifier

### Estimated Effort
Medium (1-4 hours)

Research direction

Start with the exported declarations in pkg/console/console_wasm.go, then compare the other _wasm.go files in pkg/console, pkg/workflow, pkg/parser, pkg/colorwriter, pkg/tty, and pkg/styles. Read the WASM Build-Variant Pattern section in .github/skills/developer-code-organization/SKILL.md; done means the targeted stubs have doc comments and the section accurately covers all 27 files and six packages.
