Replace ambiguous "execute" terminology with explicit "Read fully and follow:"
phrasing across all workflow files to prevent LLM goal-seeking behavior where
models attempt to "achieve the end result" rather than following step-by-step
instructions verbatim.
Changes:
- Update 5 handler templates with canonical phrasing
- Replace ~150 INSTRUCTIONAL patterns across 87 workflow files
- Add "[Workflow] complete." prefix to 7 workflow endpoints
- Preserve BEHAVIORAL/STRUCTURAL patterns (agent descriptions, XML tags)
- Fix gitignore and markdownlint to ignore all node_modules directories
Closes#1372

Add an optional also_consider parameter that allows callers to pass
domain-specific areas to keep in mind during review. This gently nudges
the reviewer toward specific concerns without overriding normal analysis.
Testing showed:
- Specific items steer strongly (questions get directly answered)
- Domain-focused items shift the lens (e.g., security focus = deeper security findings)
- Vague items have minimal effect (similar to baseline)
- Single items nudge without dominating
- Contradictory items handled gracefully
Includes test cases with sample content and 10 configurations to validate
the parameter behavior across different use cases.

The mergeModuleHelpCatalogs function depends on agent-manifest.csv
being populated, but was being called before generateManifests.
This caused new modules' agent info to be empty in the help catalog.
Fixes issue where game-dev-studio workflows weren't appearing
in bmad-help.csv and IDE commands weren't being generated.
The correct-course workflow restructures epics but did not update
sprint-status.yaml, leaving tracking out of sync. Added check-item 6.4
to Section 6 (after user approval) to update sprint-status.yaml when
epics are added, removed, renumbered, or stories are modified.

* docs: optimize style guide for LLM readers
Restructure documentation style guide with dependency-first ordering
and LLM-optimized content based on editorial-review-structure analysis.
Key changes:
- Add Universal Formatting Rules section at top (consolidated anti-patterns)
- Move Visual Hierarchy and formatting rules before document types
- Add Document Types decision table for type selection
- Move Before/After example to follow Visual Hierarchy
- Merge Links/Images into single Assets table
- Move tutorial-specific checklist into Tutorial Structure section
- Move Validation Steps to end (submission workflow)
- Cut abstract Quick Principles (no execution value for LLMs)
- Remove emotional/orientation language throughout
- Condense FAQ Sections structure
Result: ~35% reduction (539 deletions, 383 insertions) with improved
parseability for AI agents writing documentation.

* docs: clarify explanation checklist admonition limit
Disambiguate 2-3 admonitions max to explicitly show it is a per-document
limit that still respects the universal per-section rule.

* docs: clarify header budget vs structure template relationship
Add note explaining that structure templates show content flow, not 1:1
header mapping. Admonitions and inline elements are within sections.

* docs: remove horizontal rules to follow own guidelines
Remove all --- section separators to comply with Universal Formatting
Rules. The ## headers provide sufficient visual separation.

* docs: address PR review findings for style guide
- Fix forward reference in Header Budget section
- Clarify descriptions rule scope (tables and 5+ item lists)
- Restore realistic FAQ examples
- Add qualifier to admonition content length guideline
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* docs: further optimize style guide as delta-only document
- Add opener declaring adherence to Google Style Guide and Diataxis
- Remove generic Google style guide sections (Visual Hierarchy patterns,
Tables constraints, Code Blocks, Lists, Assets)
- Remove Diataxis explainer content (Document Types table, "X documents
do Y" explanatory sentences, Before/After example)
- Keep all project-specific structure templates and checklists
- Consolidate rules into single Project-Specific Rules table
Result: 367 lines (down from 597), pure delta document assuming
LLM training knowledge of baseline standards.
