What problem does this solve?
The skills input field uses a custom chip-based selection system.
Browser autocomplete interferes with this by showing a dropdown of
previously typed values, which overlaps the custom chip UI and
confuses the interaction for new users.
Proposed solution
Add autocomplete="off" to the skills input field in templates/index.html.
<input type="text" id="skill-input" autocomplete="off" ...>
This is a single attribute change with no logic or backend impact.
Alternatives considered
None — autocomplete="off" is the standard HTML solution for
suppressing browser autocomplete on custom input components.
Which part of the app does this affect?
Homepage and form
Estimated complexity
Small (a few lines of CSS or JS)
