Updated 2 additional files to use the correct /dist/ path:
- docs/how-to/workflows/run-automate.md: Standalone mode example

* 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.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* 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.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* 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.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* docs: remove horizontal rules to follow own guidelines
Remove all --- section separators to comply with Universal Formatting
Rules. The ## headers provide sufficient visual separation.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* 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.

- Remove unused inquirer dependency
- Fix potential crash in multiselect when initialValues is undefined
- Add async validator detection with explicit error message
- Extract validateCustomContentPathSync method in ui.js
- Extract promptInstallLocation methods in claude-code.js and antigravity.js

- Update multiselect to support native clack API (options/initialValues)
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* chore: update comments to reference @clack/prompts instead of inquirer
- Update bmad-cli.js comment about CLI prompts
- Update config-collector.js JSDoc comments
- Rename inquirer variable to choiceUtils in ui.js

* fix(cli): add spacing between prompts and installation progress
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* fix(cli): add multiselect usage hints for inexperienced users
Add inline navigation hints to all multiselect prompts showing
(↑/↓ navigate, SPACE select, ENTER confirm) to help users
unfamiliar with terminal multiselect controls.
Also restore detailed warning when no tools are selected,
explaining that SPACE must be pressed to select items.

* feat(cli): restore IDE grouping using groupMultiselect
Replace flat multiselect with native @clack/prompts groupMultiselect
component to restore visual grouping of IDE/tool options:
- "Previously Configured" - pre-selected IDEs from existing install
- "Recommended Tools" - starred preferred options
- "Additional Tools" - other available options
This restores the grouped UX that was lost during the Inquirer.js
to @clack/prompts migration.

* feat: add editorial review tasks for structure and prose
Add two complementary editorial review tasks:
- editorial-review-structure.xml: Structural editor that proposes cuts,
reorganization, and simplification. Includes 5 document archetype models
(Tutorial, Reference, Explanation, Prompt, Strategic) for targeted evaluation.
- editorial-review-prose.xml: Clinical copy-editor for prose improvements
using Microsoft Writing Style Guide as baseline.
Both tasks support humans and llm target audiences with different principles.
* fix: add content-sacrosanct guardrail to editorial review tasks
Both editorial review tasks (prose and structure) were missing the key
constraint that reviewers should never challenge the ideas/knowledge
themselves—only how clearly they are communicated. This restores the
original design intent.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* fix: align reader_type parameter naming across editorial tasks
Prose task was using 'target_audience' for the humans/llm optimization
flag while structure task correctly separates 'target_audience' (who
reads) from 'reader_type' (optimization mode). Aligns to reader_type.

Step 4 was missing a structured menu at the spec review checkpoint.
This caused agents to skip past the approval step without waiting for
explicit user confirmation.
Added:
- Review menu with [y] Approve, [c] Changes, [q] Questions, [a] Advanced Elicitation, [p] Party Mode
- Explicit HALT instruction
- Menu handling section
This aligns step 4 with the menu-driven pattern used in steps 1-3.
Fixes#1304
Also fixes pre-existing prettier issue in src/modules/cis/module.yaml.

* fix: use repo-relative links with .md for GitHub compatibility
Convert all documentation links to repo-relative format (/docs/path/file.md)

Inquirer v9+ is ESM-only, causing ERR_REQUIRE_ESM when loaded via
require() in CommonJS. Convert all require('inquirer') calls to
dynamic import('inquirer') across 8 CLI files.
