file-reading — router by file type

When asked to read or summarize a file, dispatch by extension to the appropriate skill under org/public/core/:

Extension Skill Script
.pptx pptx python org/public/core/pptx/extract.py
.docx docx python org/public/core/docx/extract.py
.xlsx xlsx python org/public/core/xlsx/extract.py
.pdf pdf python org/public/core/pdf/extract.py
.txt, .md cat
.csv cat (or column -t -s, for alignment)
.json cat (or jq . if structure matters)

For extensions not listed, read the corresponding SKILL.md under org/public/core/ if one exists, otherwise fall back to file <path> to identify the format and proceed manually.
