The signals-dashboard canvas extension bundles with the-workshop
plugin (x-awesome-copilot.extensions), so installing the plugin from
awesome-copilot includes the dashboard. Drop the pointers telling
users to install from jennyf19/the-workshop.
Addresses PR review comments on README (Cairn Dashboard section),
signal-write SKILL note, and workshop-ta agent viewing-signals note.

Syncs with jennyf19/the-workshop PR #8 (merged). Adds the
workshop-create skill with Path A (existing dir) and Path B
(new GitHub repo), explicit guard against repo-in-repo nesting.
TA agent updated with workshop-create section.

The awesome-copilot validator (eng/validate-plugins.mjs:107-148)
strips .md from the plugin.json path and appends .agent.md to
find the source file. The rename to workshop-ta.md broke this
convention. Reverting to workshop-ta.agent.md so validation,
materialization, and README generation all work correctly.

The .agent.md suffix leaked into the component ID registered
with the marketplace. Renaming gives a clean 'workshop-ta'
identifier while the frontmatter display name stays unchanged.

- desk-open: add 'Session orientation' section explaining the
session→journal→signals lifecycle. Desks are long-running in
state (journal), not runtime (each session is independent).
- workshop-ta: partnership signals write to desks/_ta/.signals/
so they appear on the dashboard without replacing any desk's
latest signal. TA uses the _ta prefix to indicate coordinator.

- plugin.json: use ./agents/workshop-ta.md path format (matches all other plugins)
- workshop-ta front matter: name 'Workshop TA' preserves acronym (was 'workshop-ta')
- signal-write: add subtype field (hands-up/blocked/done/checkpoint/partnership)
so dashboard consumers can distinguish specific signal states
- npm run build: regenerated docs/README.agents.md

The Workshop puts long-running AI agents (desks) in the same room,
on the same work, each with its own memory and history, sharing one
workspace so you direct the work instead of relaying it.
Components:
- Workshop TA agent (room coordinator)
- Skills: desk-open, desk-journal, signal-write, bench-read
- Marketplace entry for one-command install
Install: copilot plugin install the-workshop@awesome-copilot
Complements Ember (partnership for one agent) with coordination
for many agents. Install both for the full stack.
