What next-qa-idea does
One invocation = one ideation iteration: **orient → find gaps → judge → file ONE issue**. This skill NEVER writes code, tests, or configuration — it only fills the `qa` queue that the `next-qa` skill consumes. The split mirrors the feature track (`next-idea` / `next-task`) so ideation and implementation can run on separate schedules.
