Track Specification: Manual Skeleton Context Injection (manual_skeleton_injection_20260306)

Overview

Add UI controls to manually flag files for skeleton injection in discussions. Allow agent to request full file reads or specific def/class definitions on-demand.

Current State Audit

Already Implemented (DO NOT re-implement)

• file_cache.ASTParser.get_skeleton(): Returns Python skeleton
• mcp_client.py_get_skeleton(): MCP tool for skeleton generation
• aggregate.py: Builds file items context

Gaps to Fill

• No UI to flag files for skeleton vs full
• No preview of skeleton before injection
• No on-demand definition lookup

Functional Requirements

• File picker UI in discussion panel
• Skeleton preview before injection
• Toggle: skeleton vs full file
• Uses existing py_get_skeleton() tool

Key Integration Points

File	Purpose
src/gui_2.py	File picker, injection UI
src/mcp_client.py	py_get_skeleton()
src/file_cache.py	ASTParser

Acceptance Criteria

• File picker UI functional
• Skeleton preview displays
• Manual refresh button works
• Full read option available
• 1-space indentation
