docs: Update documentation for new AI/config architecture and finalize cleanup

Browse Source 
This commit updates all relevant documentation (READMEs, docs/*, .cursor/rules) to accurately reflect the finalized unified AI service architecture and the new configuration system (.taskmasterconfig + .env/mcp.json). It also includes the final code cleanup steps related to the refactoring.

Key Changes:

1.  **Documentation Updates:**

    *   Revised `README.md`, `README-task-master.md`, `assets/scripts_README.md`, `docs/configuration.md`, and `docs/tutorial.md` to explain the new configuration split (.taskmasterconfig vs .env/mcp.json).

    *   Updated MCP configuration examples in READMEs and tutorials to only include API keys in the `env` block.

    *   Added/updated examples for using the `--research` flag in `docs/command-reference.md`, `docs/examples.md`, and `docs/tutorial.md`.

    *   Updated `.cursor/rules/ai_services.mdc`, `.cursor/rules/architecture.mdc`, `.cursor/rules/dev_workflow.mdc`, `.cursor/rules/mcp.mdc`, `.cursor/rules/taskmaster.mdc`, `.cursor/rules/utilities.mdc`, and `.cursor/rules/new_features.mdc` to align with the new architecture, removing references to old patterns/files.

    *   Removed internal rule links from user-facing rules (`taskmaster.mdc`, `dev_workflow.mdc`, `self_improve.mdc`).

    *   Deleted outdated example file `docs/ai-client-utils-example.md`.

2.  **Final Code Refactor & Cleanup:**

    *   Corrected `update-task-by-id.js` by removing the last import from the old `ai-services.js`.

    *   Refactored `update-subtask-by-id.js` to correctly use the unified service and logger patterns.

    *   Removed the obsolete export block from `mcp-server/src/core/task-master-core.js`.

    *   Corrected logger implementation in `update-tasks.js` for CLI context.

    *   Updated API key mapping in `config-manager.js` and `ai-services-unified.js`.

3.  **Configuration Files:**

    *   Updated API keys in `.cursor/mcp.json`, replacing `GROK_API_KEY` with `XAI_API_KEY`.

    *   Updated `.env.example` with current API key names.

    *   Added `azureOpenaiBaseUrl` to `.taskmasterconfig` example.

4.  **Task Management:**

    *   Marked documentation subtask 61.10 as 'done'.

    *   Includes various other task content/status updates from the diff summary.

5.  **Changeset:**

    *   Added `.changeset/cuddly-zebras-matter.md` for user-facing `expand`/`expand-all` improvements.

This commit concludes the major architectural refactoring (Task 61) and ensures the documentation accurately reflects the current system.

## Configuration
The script can be configured through environment variables in a `.env` file at the root of the project:
Taskmaster uses two primary configuration methods:
### Required Configuration
1. **`.taskmasterconfig` File (Project Root)**
- `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY`: Your Anthropic API key for Claude
- Stores most settings: AI model selections (main, research, fallback), parameters (max tokens, temperature), logging level, default priority/subtasks, project name.
- **Created and managed using `task-master models --setup` CLI command or the `models` MCP tool.**
- Do not edit manually unless you know what you are doing.
### Optional Configuration
2. **Environment Variables (`.env` file or MCP `env` block)**
- Used **only** for sensitive **API Keys** (e.g., `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY`, `PERPLEXITY_API_KEY`, etc.) and specific endpoints (like `OLLAMA_BASE_URL`).
- **For CLI:** Place keys in a `.env` file in your project root.
- **For MCP/Cursor:** Place keys in the `env` section of your `.cursor/mcp.json` (or other MCP config according to the AI IDE or client you use) file under the `taskmaster-ai` server definition.
- `MODEL`: Specify which Claude model to use (default: "claude-3-7-sonnet-20250219")
- `MAX_TOKENS`: Maximum tokens for model responses (default: 4000)
- `TEMPERATURE`: Temperature for model responses (default: 0.7)
- `PERPLEXITY_API_KEY`: Your Perplexity API key for research-backed subtask generation
- `PERPLEXITY_MODEL`: Specify which Perplexity model to use (default: "sonar-medium-online")
- `DEBUG`: Enable debug logging (default: false)
- `LOG_LEVEL`: Log level - debug, info, warn, error (default: info)
- `DEFAULT_SUBTASKS`: Default number of subtasks when expanding (default: 3)
- `DEFAULT_PRIORITY`: Default priority for generated tasks (default: medium)
- `PROJECT_NAME`: Override default project name in tasks.json
- `PROJECT_VERSION`: Override default version in tasks.json
**Important:** Settings like model choices, max tokens, temperature, and log level are **no longer configured via environment variables.** Use the `task-master models` command or tool.
See the [Configuration Guide](docs/configuration.md) for full details.
