fargo 1a822493ba format: apply repo prettier (3.8.1) to the folded skills tree
963 markdown files reformatted with the repository's pinned prettier so
pnpm format:check covers the folded tree like every other repo file.

The formatter's embedded-language pass also normalized code fences
(TS semicolons, closed HTML tags in examples, lowercased CSS hex colors,
one renumbered list that skipped an index). Alphanumeric token deltas vs
the fold commit were audited file-by-file; all are formatter-equivalent
markup normalizations plus the four sanitized skills.

extendRef

Add extra attributes to Ref.

Usage

Please note the extra attribute will not be accessible in Vue's template.

import { extendRef } from '@vueuse/core';
import { shallowRef } from 'vue';

const myRef = shallowRef('content');

const extended = extendRef(myRef, { foo: 'extra data' });

extended.value === 'content';
extended.foo === 'extra data';

Refs will be unwrapped and be reactive

import { extendRef } from '@vueuse/core';
// ---cut---
const myRef = shallowRef('content');
const extraRef = shallowRef('extra');

const extended = extendRef(myRef, { extra: extraRef });

extended.value === 'content';
extended.extra === 'extra';

extended.extra = 'new data'; // will trigger update
extraRef.value === 'new data';
