* chore(bmm): retire bmad-investigate skill and its documentation
Removes the bmad-investigate skill, its case-file template, the EN/FR
forensic-investigation explainer docs, and every integration point:
Amelia's `IN` menu entry, the plugin marketplace manifest, module-help,
the workflow-map tables and HTML diagrams, and the agent-trigger tables.
EN/FR explanation sidebar orders are renumbered to close the gap left by
the removed doc.
Rationale: the skill's only non-redundant value was a durable, hand-off
case-file artifact — a workflow that is unproven in practice. Everything
else (evidence grading, hypothesis discipline, causal tracing) is
behavior a capable model already performs without a dedicated skill. The
skill also carried method-internal metaphor ("stronghold", "evidence
perimeter") that leaked into user-facing chat. Upstream signals agreed:
issue #2452 flagged the vocabulary leak and a maintainer noted the skill
should not auto-fire. Added in #2364.
Supersedes the in-flight cleanup in #2478 and resolves#2452 by removal.

* chore(bmm): add bmad-investigate to removals.txt and note retirement
The retirement commit removed the skill source and docs but did not add
the removals.txt entry that triggers cleanup of the skill directory on
existing installs during update. Add it, plus an Unreleased CHANGELOG note.

* docs: clarify dev auto customization comments
Replace internal merge jargon and stale workflow comments with plain descriptions of the customization file behavior.
* feat(core): add bmad-forge-idea skill
Domain-agnostic idea-forging skill for BMad core. Takes a half-formed idea
and pressure-tests it in conversation until it hardens, proves out, or dies
cheaply — the quality of thinking is the product, not an artifact. One
question at a time with an always-on anti-sycophancy stance; two opt-in gears
(adversarial attack; a persona room resolved from the installed roster,
voiced by default and spawned when a branch needs independent minds); a
memlog as durable, resumable residue. Honest exits (hardened / killed /
clearer); optional brief distilled from the memlog that can feed bmad-spec or
bmad-quick-dev. Interactive and socratic; no headless mode.
Registered in core-skills/module-help.csv (menu code FI).
* Add forge-idea documentation and finalize skill scripts/conventions
Docs (Diátaxis):
- New explanation/forge-idea.md and how-to/pressure-test-an-idea.md
- core-tools.md: catalog entry + item section for bmad-forge-idea
- workflow-map.md and getting-started.md: Phase 1 (Analysis) listing
- De-collide the "forge" verb from bmad-prfaq positioning across docs
Skill:
- forge-idea SKILL.md: add term-sharpening axis, operationalize the
existing-project ground-truth rule, and add graceful degradation
- bmad-prfaq: description de-collision; Stage 1 now redirects upstream
to bmad-forge-idea for an unsound idea
- Unbundle the core memlog.py copy (skill references the core script at
{project-root}/_bmad/scripts); keep skill-local resolve_personas.py + tests
- customize.toml: comment refresh; on_complete as array
* Fix review findings: resolve_personas crash + doc accuracy
- resolve_parties: resolve token once + coerce non-strings (fixes KeyError
on mixed-case members and TypeError on unhashable members)
- Guard malformed party-mode config shapes so discovery stays best-effort
- _brief: pass through model/capabilities; register: no name-lookup hijack
- 5 new regression tests (case-insensitivity, malformed input, rename collision)
- Docs: correct bmad-review-adversarial-general name, bmad-prfaq handoff,
recursive resume glob, broken table row, and Produces filenames across
forge-idea/brainstorming/product-brief/architecture rows
* bmm: standardize memlog usage across skills
- Point all memlog writes at the canonical core script (uv {project-root}/_bmad/scripts/memlog.py) in bmad-spec, bmad-brainstorming, and bmad-architecture; drop the python3/{skill-root} invocations and remove the bundled memlog.py copy from bmad-brainstorming.
- Migrate bmad-prd, bmad-ux, and bmad-product-brief off the hand-authored decision-log.md onto the memlog standard: .memlog.md written only via memlog.py (init/append), distilled-toward not authored, no lifecycle status; rename the headless decision_log JSON key to memlog.
- Fix bmad-spec capability rendering: nested bullets so intent/success break onto their own lines instead of collapsing into one blob.
- Update EN + FR docs (getting-started, workflow-map, core-tools) to reference .memlog.md.
- Remove the bmad-product-brief eval suite (to be replaced with a new format).
* bmm: invoke scripts with 'uv run' instead of python3/bare uv
Bare 'uv {path}.py' does not execute (uv treats the path as a subcommand and errors); only 'uv run {path}' runs the script. Fixes the broken bare-uv memlog form shipped earlier in this branch and converts python3 script calls to 'uv run' across the 6 touched skills (memlog.py, resolve_customization.py, brain.py, lint_spine.py). Inline 'python3 -c' one-liners and .py shebangs are left as-is.
* bmm: address PR review on memlog standardization
- Delete orphaned bmad-brainstorming/scripts/tests/test_memlog.py: it
imported the bundled memlog.py removed in this PR (ModuleNotFoundError on
collection) and its unique tests asserted the now-removed status-lifecycle
behavior. The canonical src/scripts/tests/test_memlog.py is the corrected
superset, so no coverage is lost.
- Make runnable memlog command examples self-contained with the full
'uv run {project-root}/_bmad/scripts/memlog.py ... --workspace {doc_workspace}'
form across bmad-brainstorming (converge/finalize/headless), bmad-prd, and
bmad-ux. Terse checklist back-references left short by design.
- bmad-product-brief Update: init .memlog.md if missing (legacy/pre-standard
briefs), matching bmad-prd and bmad-ux; fix the --type override invocation.
* refactor(bmad-ux): replace bmad-create-ux-design with lean spine-based bmad-ux
* refactor(bmad-ux): adopt DESIGN.md spec, split into two-file spine, align prd/brief
DESIGN.md (visual identity per the Google Labs spec) and EXPERIENCE.md
(behavior, flow, IA) replace the single design.md spine. EXPERIENCE.md
cross-references DESIGN.md tokens via the spec's {path.to.token} syntax.
Example suite restructure
- 3 DESIGN.md examples: editorial (Stitch source / Linen & Logic), calm
native mobile (Quill), shadcn-on-Tailwind web SaaS (Drift)
- 2 paired EXPERIENCE.md examples (Quill, Drift); Linen & Logic unpaired
to model the Stitch handoff scenario
- Replaces the prior 2-example combined spine set
Discovery additions (outcome-driven, one line each)
- Source scan: glob {planning_artifacts}/ for candidates, parent never reads
- Form-factor: resolve before IA closes; journeys often derive it
- Surface closure: every stated need has a surface, every surface a journey
- Named-protagonist journeys (Mary, not "the user")
- Design handoff working mode (extensible producer registry, default: Stitch)
PRD and brief alignment with same insights
- bmad-prd: dropped standalone Primary Persona section from template;
renamed "Personas + Journeys" entry to "Journey-led"; named-protagonist
rule on UJs; form-factor probe; validation checklist updated
- bmad-product-brief: form-factor surfaced in Discovery topics
Quality scan fixes
- Added ## Overview heading; renamed ## Activation to ## On Activation
- Replaced ../ paths in example assets with {planning_artifacts}/
- Sources section compressed (abstract delta-only rule)
- Working mode aligned to "Fast path" / "Coaching path" BMad-wide convention
New
- references/design-md-spec.md: working summary of the spec for the LLM
- customize.toml: design_md_examples, experience_md_examples,
design_handoffs registries
- .prettierignore: ignore .analysis/ quality-scan artifacts repo-wide
* refactor(bmad-ux): activation parity with prd/brief, opt-in reviewer gate, no headline grade
- Restructure On Activation as numbered six-step list mirroring bmad-prd
and bmad-product-brief, restoring the explicit key-resolution list that
earlier crammed-paragraph form had dropped (planning_artifacts and
friends were silently unresolved at Create).
- Make Reviewer Gate opt-in and lens-selectable. At Finalize, ask before
spending tokens on parallel reviewer subagents; at Validate intent,
skip that question but still confirm lens picks. Stops the auto-run
WCAG audit on hobby-stakes work.
- Drop the overall validation grade. Per-category verdicts and severity
counts already say what is true; a single headline grade conflated
design rigor with release readiness and led "POOR" pills landing on
reports whose own bodies described the work as strong. Removed from
references/validate.md (ladder rule + markdown twin), HTML template
(grade pill div + CSS vars + classes).
- Trim creative-tools.md: drop the Custom entries section. Runtime
prompt files should only carry what the LLM needs to act in this
moment; how-to-extend-via-TOML is setup-time human documentation
already covered by customize.toml comments.
* fix(bmad-ux): align validation report template with 8-category rubric
Template placeholders referenced 'Decision-readiness' and 'seven dimensions'
from the prior rubric. Replace with TEMPLATE_CATEGORY_NAME and inline the
eight canonical categories from references/validate.md so the synthesis pass
names them verbatim.
* fix(validate-skills): remove stale WF-01/WF-02 rules
WF-01/WF-02 were originally scoped to workflow.md files (now mostly gone)
but had been generalized to flag name/description in any non-SKILL.md
markdown. That over-captured legitimate spec files — e.g. DESIGN.md
examples in bmad-ux/assets/ that carry name/description per the Google
Labs DESIGN.md spec.
Step files are already covered by STEP-06. Rule count: 14 → 12.
* fix(bmad-ux): address PR review followups
- validation-report-template.html: severity badge class is badge-sev-*,
not sev-* (the comment misled the synthesis pass).
- Sweep dangling bmad-create-ux-design references: module-help.csv,
bmad-agent-ux-designer/customize.toml, bmad-prd/SKILL.md handoff list,
workflow-map.md (en + 4 translations), getting-started.md (en + 4
translations). Workflow-map output column updated to DESIGN.md +
EXPERIENCE.md.
- references/validate.md: Markdown capitalized as a proper noun.
* feat(bmm): add bmad-prd skill and extend product-brief with external integrations
Consolidates the legacy create-prd/edit-prd/validate-prd trio into a single
lean facilitator with create/update/validate intent modes, following the
bmad-product-brief pattern. Both skills gain external_sources and
external_handoffs customize.toml fields for routing through corporate MCP
tools (Confluence, Jira, etc.) with graceful degradation, plus a File roles
constraint clarifying decision-log (audit trail) vs addendum (preserved
depth for downstream docs).
* refactor(bmad-prd): tighten SKILL.md and operationalize source-extractor pattern
- Compress Overview to remove coaching prose duplicated in Discovery
- Operationalize "Extract, don't ingest" with explicit subagent return contract; reference from Update, Validate, and Finalize input reconciliation instead of inline "read N documents"
- Fix Overview H1 -> H2 (was breaking pre-pass tooling)
- Move full headless JSON schemas to assets/headless-schemas.md; keep minimal example inline
- Compress File roles bullet; tighten Finalize step 1
SKILL.md: 124 -> 105 lines, ~4729 -> ~4467 tokens
* feat(bmad-prd): open-items gate, drop distillate, persona discipline, decision-log metadata
- Add Finalize "Open-items review" step (new step 4): counts OQs / [ASSUMPTION] / [NOTE FOR PM], walks them with user, flags high density as red flag against agreed stakes
- Validate now treats open-items density as a first-class finding category
- Resume / continuity surfaces open items deterministically as the first orientation step
- Drop the PRD's own distillate output and the bmad-distillator finalize step. Downstream workflows (UX, architecture, story creation) source-extract from prd.md directly via the canonical source-extractor pattern. Headless schemas, customize.toml comments, and template updated accordingly.
- Drop "status: draft" from PRD frontmatter and template; version/state transitions logged to decision-log.md instead. Finalize step 7 records the version transition entry.
- Add PRD Discipline bullet: personas must be research-grounded or marked [ILLUSTRATIVE]; must drive decisions; 2-4 personas max. Discipline pass enforces.
- Expand File roles bullet: competitive-analysis detail beyond a one-line landscape and operational/cost mechanics (rate-limiting, compression) belong in addendum
* feat(bmad-prd): outcome-driven trim, swappable validation checklist, HTML report
SKILL.md trim (4.7K -> ~3.2K tokens, 124 -> 93 lines):
- Cut anchor enumerations (HIPAA/PCI/NIST list, API/Mobile/Web list, hobby->regulated list, "fast/easy/scalable/intuitive", input enumerations, etc.) the LLM already knows
- Cut derivable reasoning (synonyms-cause-drift explanation, hobby-vs-enterprise examples, etc.)
- Cut good/bad examples that anchor LLM attention (password/SendGrid example, persona quote, "let me also add this nearby thing")
- Drop SMART-ceremony language from Measurable bullet (keep judgment-not-ritual; SMART principles fine)
Progressive disclosure to references/:
- Headless mode rules + JSON minimal example moved to references/headless.md (loaded only when invoked headless)
- On Activation step 6 gates mode detection: headless -> read references/headless.md and follow
Swappable validation checklist:
- New assets/prd-validation-checklist.md (15 items: Quality / Discipline / Structural / Stakes-gated, each one line)
- New customize.toml field validation_checklist (override per org)
- Used by Validate intent AND Finalize Step 3 -- same subagent, same checklist, two moments
- Replaces bmad-validate-prd's 13-step micro-file architecture; kept the valuable check dimensions (density, measurability, traceability, implementation leakage, etc.) and dropped the ceremony
HTML validation report:
- New scripts/render-validation-html.py (PEP 723, stdlib only, ~175 lines) renders structured findings JSON into a styled HTML report with pass/warn/fail grade, inline SVG score bar, category grouping
- New assets/validation-report-template.html (inline CSS, native <details>, no JS, no external deps) -- swappable via customize.toml validation_report_template
- New references/validation-render.md documents the subagent output contract and renderer invocation; loaded only when validate flow runs
- Auto-opens browser on interactive runs; headless skips the open
Mode flow consistency:
- Create and Update both now explicitly "proceed to ## Finalize"
- Validate / analyze is standalone -- explicit "does NOT enter ## Finalize"; renderer auto-opens the HTML
- analyze is a synonym for validate; intent detection routes both
- Update mode no longer has its own light-close validation step (Finalize Step 3 covers it)
* refactor(product-brief,bmad-prd): remove distillation from brief and PRD workflows
Drop bmad-distillator integration from bmad-product-brief (finalize step,
update mode, headless JSON, constraints) and clean up customize.toml comments.
Distillation is the wrong layer — story self-containment via epic solution
design docs is the right answer for downstream context.
Also commit pending bmad-prd changes: working mode selector (Express vs
Facilitative), open-items triage into phase-blocking/resolvable/deferred
buckets, persistence wording fix, and facilitation-guide reference.
* refactor(bmad-prd): aggressive SKILL.md compression, remove LLM-obvious content
* feat(bmad-prd,bmad-product-brief): surface party-mode and advanced-elicitation at opening
* refactor(bmm): retire bmad-create-prd/edit/validate, point docs and PM agent at bmad-prd
Removes the three separate PRD skills (create, edit, validate) in favor of the
unified bmad-prd skill. Updates module-help.csv, PM agent menu, workflow map,
getting-started tutorial, commands reference, customize/help SKILL.md examples,
and the website workflow-map diagram. Adds Recipe 6 (Advanced Integration
Patterns) to expand-bmad-for-your-org.md covering external_sources,
external_handoffs, doc_standards, and swappable templates.
* test(bmad-product-brief): drop distillate from evals
Distillate was removed from the product-brief workflow in 1a88f001
but the eval suite still checked for distillate.md artifacts, the
bmad-distillator subagent invocation, and the polish→distillate phase
ordering. Strip all distillate references from A1/A5/B1/B2/B3/B5/B6,
remove B4 (phase-ordering eval centered on distillate) and B8 (pure
distillate eval), update _design_notes, and delete the orphan
distillate.md fixture from the forkbird-brief input set. IDs preserved
(gaps at B4, B8) so existing references stay stable.
* fix(bmad-prd): validation report only on explicit analysis request
Reconciles a contradiction across SKILL.md, validation-render.md,
headless.md, and headless-schemas.md about when validation-report.{html,md}
gets written. Rule: a report file is only written when the user has
specifically asked for analysis — Validate intent, or a mid-session
"produce a report" request. The Finalize discipline pass during
Create/Update keeps findings in-conversation: autofix obvious issues,
ask on ambiguous ones, never write a file.
- SKILL.md: Finalize step 3 no longer renders a report; Validate intent
wording softened from "HTML report" to "validation report".
- references/validation-render.md: drops the severity-based conditional
for markdown emission. Script now always writes both HTML and MD
side-by-side when invoked; trigger gating happens upstream.
- assets/headless-schemas.md: drops the "may be omitted in interactive
mode" caveat; validation_report is required for Validate intent.
- scripts/render-validation-html.py: adds render_markdown_report()
emitting a severity-grouped markdown companion at output_path.with_suffix('.md').
Returns markdown path in the stdout JSON summary alongside HTML path.
* fix(bmm-skills): address remaining PR review nits
- headless-schemas.md: Update schema gains `external_handoffs` to match
SKILL.md which routes Update through Finalize (handoffs execute there).
- bmad-product-brief/SKILL.md: "Use the bmad-help skill" → "Invoke
bmad-help" to align with REF-03 and the bmad-prd phrasing.
- bmad-product-brief/SKILL.md: hyphenate "high-quality draft".
* feat(bmm): add deprecation shims for retired PRD skills
Re-adds bmad-create-prd, bmad-edit-prd, bmad-validate-prd as thin
compatibility shims so existing invocations by name and
_bmad/custom/bmad-{create,edit,validate}-prd.toml override files keep
working post-consolidation. Each shim contains only SKILL.md and
customize.toml — no steps, data, or templates.
On activation, each shim:
1. Resolves customization via resolve_customization.py, picking up any
legacy override files for the four legacy fields (activation_steps_*,
persistent_facts, on_complete).
2. Emits a one-time deprecation notice in {communication_language},
pointing at bmad-prd and the migration path for override files.
3. Invokes bmad-prd with the appropriate intent (create / update /
validate), passes through the resolved legacy customization with
instruction to use these values instead of re-resolving from
bmad-prd's own customize.toml, and forwards the original user input
verbatim.
bmad-prd continues to read its own customize.toml + bmad-prd.toml
overrides for the new-only fields (prd_template, validation_checklist,
doc_standards, output_dir, output_folder_name, external_sources,
external_handoffs, validation_report_template). Users wanting those
fields must migrate to invoking bmad-prd directly.
* polish(bmm): refine PRD deprecation shim wording
Three small revisions applied uniformly to all three shims
(bmad-create-prd, bmad-edit-prd, bmad-validate-prd):
- Tighten the frontmatter description to a single sentence naming the
intent and signaling v7 removal.
- Drop the redundant "On failure, surface the diagnostic and halt."
trailer from the resolve-customization step; resolve_customization.py
surfaces errors itself.
- Extend the user-facing deprecation notice to clarify that legacy
override fields still resolve under bmad-prd, so migration is for
unlocking new fields rather than restoring lost functionality.
* fix(bmad-prd): normalize status casing and add friendly file errors
- compute_stats: lower-case `status` before bucketing so findings with
any casing (e.g. "Pass") feed the stat buckets and the score bar
fills correctly. Matches the .lower() pattern already used in
render_finding and render_finding_md.
- main: wrap findings/template read_text calls; emit a one-line error
to stderr and return 1 on FileNotFoundError or JSONDecodeError
instead of dumping a raw traceback. Script is LLM-invoked, so a
clean diagnostic is the contract.

* docs(expand): refresh "five recipes" copy to reflect Recipe 6
Recipe 6 (Advanced Integration Patterns) was added but three earlier
mentions still said "five": the frontmatter description, the intro
sentence at line 8, and the "Combining Recipes" paragraph. Update all
three to "six" and extend the Combining-Recipes example to call out
Recipe 6 (external_sources / external_handoffs) alongside the others.
Addresses coderabbitai review comment 3235107194 and the two
outside-diff observations on lines 3 and 8.

* fix(bmad-prd): utf-8 encoding on render script, correct workflow-map outputs
- render-validation-html.py reads findings/template and writes HTML/MD with
explicit utf-8 encoding so non-ASCII content (smart quotes, em-dashes,
non-English text under {document_output_language}) does not break on
platforms whose default encoding is not utf-8.
- workflow-map.md 'Produces' column for bmad-prd now distinguishes
Create/Update outputs from the Validate intent's validation-report
artifacts.

Forensic case investigation under Amelia's menu (IN). Evidence-graded
findings (Confirmed / Deduced / Hypothesized), hypothesis discipline,
structured case-file artifact. Single procedure that calibrates between
defect-chasing and area-exploration based on the input.
Wires bmad-create-prd discovery to pick up case files as PRD input.
Public explainer doc, workflow-map Phase 4 row, EN + FR.
* feat: add bmad-prfaq skill as alternative to product brief
Add Working Backwards PRFAQ challenge skill for stress-testing product
concepts through Amazon's PRFAQ methodology. Includes press release
drafting, customer FAQ, internal FAQ, and verdict stages with subagent
support for artifact scanning and web research.
- New bmad-prfaq skill with 5-stage interactive gauntlet and headless mode
- Subagents for artifact analysis and web research (graceful degradation)
- Research-grounded output directive for current market/competitive data
- Always produces distillate for downstream PRD consumption
- Fix manifest array syntax in both prfaq and product-brief manifests
- Drop number prefixes from reference files
- Update docs: getting-started, workflow-map, agents, skills reference
- Add analysis-phase explainer doc with comparison table and decision guide
- Update workflow-map-diagram.html with prfaq card
- Add -H and -A args to CSV for both skills
- Add unist-util-visit as devDependency (was imported but undeclared)
* fix: harden bmad-prfaq for compaction resilience and context efficiency
Add coaching persona re-anchors to all stage prompts so the behavioral
directive survives context compaction. Add do-not-read guards at resume
detection, headless mode, and input gathering to prevent parent agent
context bloat. Add Stage 1 coaching notes capture. Adapt template and
press release stage for non-commercial concept types. Cap subagent
response token budgets.
* fix: add config.user.yaml to file-ref validator allowlist
Also update PRFAQ config path to use correct _config/bmm/ prefix.
* refactor: consolidate agents into phase-based skill directories
Remove separate agent/workflow/skill directories (src/bmm/agents,
src/bmm/workflows, src/core/skills, src/utility/agent-components) and
reorganize all content into phase-based structures under src/bmm-skills
(1-analysis, 2-plan-workflows, 3-solutioning, 4-implementation) and
src/core-skills. Eliminates the agent/skill distinction by treating
agents as skills within their workflow phase.
* fix: update broken file references to use new bmm-skills paths
* docs: update all references for unified bmad-quick-dev workflow
Remove all references to the old separate bmad-quick-spec and
bmad-quick-dev-new-preview workflows. The new bmad-quick-dev is a
unified workflow that handles intent clarification, planning,
implementation, review, and presentation in a single run.
Updated files across English docs, Chinese translations, source
skill manifests, website diagram, and build tooling.
Align documentation with the skills-based architecture migration by
replacing references to "commands", "slash commands", and legacy command
names with the new "skills" terminology and skill names.
* fix(docs): comprehensive documentation site review fixes
Rehype plugins:
- Rewrite rehype-markdown-links for correct relative .md resolution
- Handle raw HTML base paths and bare .md links in rehype-base-paths
- Guard protocol-relative URLs (//...) in all link processors
- Use file.path instead of file.history[0] for vfile compatibility
- Fail build when content directory cannot be detected
- Export helpers for testability; add 107 unit tests
Build & CI:
- Revert cancel-in-progress to false to avoid mid-deploy cancellation
- Remove redundant link-validation CI step (build validates internally)
- Remove unnecessary fetch-depth:0 from docs deploy workflow
- Refuse docs build on Windows (platform guard)
- Remove dead build scripts and stale references
Tooling:
- Add DOCS_ROOT boundary check in validate-doc-links.js
- Handle directory paths and prefix stripping in link validator
- Remove dead regex and add // guard in fix-doc-links.js
Accessibility & CSS:
- Darken caution/danger aside title colors for WCAG AA 4.5:1 contrast
- Fix 100vw scrollbar overflow (banner width:100%, html overflow-x:clip)
- Add :focus-visible ring to banner link for keyboard navigation
- Remove dead CSS declaration and add missing code block lang
Documentation content:
- Convert /docs/ absolute links to relative paths and fix llms.txt URLs
- Correct command file paths and naming in commands reference
- Update stale shard-doc command to current /bmad-shard-doc format
- Fix incomplete sentence in install-bmad.md
- Add Quick Flow next steps and fix 404 link path
- Expand thin content pages with substantive detail
- Add sidebar ordering frontmatter to all content pages
- Remove BMGD docs (moved to dedicated repo)
- Remove unused assets and misleading diagram caption
- Add non-iframe fallback link to workflow map diagram
- Remove dead noscript block from workflow-map
- Standardize BMAD to BMad, fix spelling/grammar, normalize headings

* fix(docs): add non-interactive installation to sidebar, rewrite and reorder how-to guides
- Move non-interactive-installation.md into how-to/ directory so it appears
in the sidebar navigation (was orphaned at docs root)
- Rewrite the page based on editorial review: consolidate redundant sections,
add missing how-to structure (prerequisites, "What You Get"), condense
installation modes from 5 subsections to a table, cut speculative examples
- Reorder how-to sidebar: Install (1), Non-Interactive (2), Upgrade to v6 (3),
then the rest following user journey order
- Fix README link to point to docs site instead of repo-internal markdown path

* docs: radical reduction of documentation scope for v6 beta
Archive and basement unreviewed content to ship a focused, minimal doc set.
Changes:
- Archive stale how-to workflow guides (will rewrite for v6)
- Archive outdated explanation and reference content
- Move unreviewed content to basement for later review
- Reorganize TEA docs into dedicated /tea/ section
- Add workflow-map visual reference page
- Simplify getting-started tutorial and sidebar navigation
- Add explanation pages: brainstorming, adversarial-review, party-mode,
quick-flow, advanced-elicitation
- Fix base URL handling for subdirectory deployments (GitHub Pages forks)
The goal is a minimal, accurate doc set for beta rather than
comprehensive but potentially misleading content.
