skyscanner plugin README: commands table omits the two required date flags #208

Description

@rajarshidattapy

Description

plugins/skyscanner/README.md:13-15 documents the command as:

Command Description
skyscanner flights <origin> <destination> Visible round-trip flight results from a warmed browser session

But --depart-date and --return-date are both required (plugins/skyscanner/flights.js:169-170):

{ name: 'depart-date', required: true, help: 'Outbound date as YYYY-MM-DD' },
{ name: 'return-date', required: true, help: 'Return date as YYYY-MM-DD' },

Copying the table row as-is fails with a missing-argument error. Only the Examples block below it (README.md:20) is runnable.

Impact

Small, but this is the one community plugin surfaced in the root README.md community table, so it is the reference example for future plugin READMEs.

Suggested fix

Change the table row to skyscanner flights <origin> <destination> --depart-date <YYYY-MM-DD> --return-date <YYYY-MM-DD>.

Minor related nit: the example uses --depart-date 2026-08-01, a date now in the past. A relative or clearly-future date ages better.
