Highlight regions in Emacs

Highlight relevant regions in one or more files in Emacs using emacsclient --eval. Files are opened in a temporary read-only minor mode with highlighted overlays. The user presses q to exit the mode and remove all highlights in that buffer.

Determine the relevant files and line ranges from the most recent interaction context.

How to highlight

First, determine the path to agent-skill-highlight.el. It lives alongside this skill file at skills/highlight/agent-skill-highlight.el in the emacs-skills plugin directory.
