Brian Madison cfedecbd53 docs: massive documentation overhaul + introduce Paige (Documentation Guide agent) 
## 📚 Complete Documentation Restructure

**BMM Documentation Hub Created:**
- New centralized documentation system at `src/modules/bmm/docs/`
- 18 comprehensive guides organized by topic (7000+ lines total)
- Clear learning paths for greenfield, brownfield, and quick spec flows
- Professional technical writing standards throughout

**New Documentation:**
- `README.md` - Complete documentation hub with navigation
- `quick-start.md` - 15-minute getting started guide
- `agents-guide.md` - Comprehensive 12-agent reference (45 min read)
- `party-mode.md` - Multi-agent collaboration guide (20 min read)
- `scale-adaptive-system.md` - Deep dive on Levels 0-4 (42 min read)
- `brownfield-guide.md` - Existing codebase development (53 min read)
- `quick-spec-flow.md` - Rapid Level 0-1 development (26 min read)
- `workflows-analysis.md` - Phase 1 workflows (12 min read)
- `workflows-planning.md` - Phase 2 workflows (19 min read)
- `workflows-solutioning.md` - Phase 3 workflows (13 min read)
- `workflows-implementation.md` - Phase 4 workflows (33 min read)
- `workflows-testing.md` - Testing & QA workflows (29 min read)
- `workflow-architecture-reference.md` - Architecture workflow deep-dive
- `workflow-document-project-reference.md` - Document-project workflow reference
- `enterprise-agentic-development.md` - Team collaboration patterns
- `faq.md` - Comprehensive Q&A covering all topics
- `glossary.md` - Complete terminology reference
- `troubleshooting.md` - Common issues and solutions

**Documentation Improvements:**
- Removed all version/date footers (git handles versioning)
- Agent customization docs now include full rebuild process
- Cross-referenced links between all guides
- Reading time estimates for all major docs
- Consistent professional formatting and structure

**Consolidated & Streamlined:**
- Module README (`src/modules/bmm/README.md`) streamlined to lean signpost
- Root README polished with better hierarchy and clear CTAs
- Moved docs from root `docs/` to module-specific locations
- Better separation of user docs vs. developer reference

## 🤖 New Agent: Paige (Documentation Guide)

**Role:** Technical documentation specialist and information architect

**Expertise:**
- Professional technical writing standards
- Documentation structure and organization
- Information architecture and navigation
- User-focused content design
- Style guide enforcement

**Status:** Work in progress - Paige will evolve as documentation needs grow

**Integration:**
- Listed in agents-guide.md, glossary.md, FAQ
- Available for all phases (documentation is continuous)
- Can be customized like all BMM agents

## 🔧 Additional Changes

- Updated agent manifest with Paige
- Updated workflow manifest with new documentation workflows
- Fixed workflow-to-agent mappings across all guides
- Improved root README with clearer Quick Start section
- Better module structure explanations
- Enhanced community links with Discord channel names

**Total Impact:**
- 18 new/restructured documentation files
- 7000+ lines of professional technical documentation
- Complete navigation system with cross-references
- Clear learning paths for all user types
- Foundation for knowledge base (coming in beta)

Implementation Readiness Validation Checklist

Document Completeness

Core Planning Documents

  • PRD exists and is complete (Level 2-4 projects)
  • PRD contains measurable success criteria
  • PRD defines clear scope boundaries and exclusions
  • Architecture document exists (architecture*.md) (Level 3-4 projects)
  • Technical Specification exists with implementation details
  • Epic and story breakdown document exists
  • All documents are dated and versioned

Document Quality

  • No placeholder sections remain in any document
  • All documents use consistent terminology
  • Technical decisions include rationale and trade-offs
  • Assumptions and risks are explicitly documented
  • Dependencies are clearly identified and documented

Alignment Verification

PRD to Architecture Alignment (Level 3-4)

  • Every functional requirement in PRD has architectural support documented
  • All non-functional requirements from PRD are addressed in architecture
  • Architecture doesn't introduce features beyond PRD scope
  • Performance requirements from PRD match architecture capabilities
  • Security requirements from PRD are fully addressed in architecture
  • If architecture.md: Implementation patterns are defined for consistency
  • If architecture.md: All technology choices have verified versions
  • If UX spec exists: Architecture supports UX requirements

PRD to Stories Coverage (Level 2-4)

  • Every PRD requirement maps to at least one story
  • All user journeys in PRD have complete story coverage
  • Story acceptance criteria align with PRD success criteria
  • Priority levels in stories match PRD feature priorities
  • No stories exist without PRD requirement traceability

Architecture to Stories Implementation

  • All architectural components have implementation stories
  • Infrastructure setup stories exist for each architectural layer
  • Integration points defined in architecture have corresponding stories
  • Data migration/setup stories exist if required by architecture
  • Security implementation stories cover all architecture security decisions

Story and Sequencing Quality

Story Completeness

  • All stories have clear acceptance criteria
  • Technical tasks are defined within relevant stories
  • Stories include error handling and edge cases
  • Each story has clear definition of done
  • Stories are appropriately sized (no epic-level stories remaining)

Sequencing and Dependencies

  • Stories are sequenced in logical implementation order
  • Dependencies between stories are explicitly documented
  • No circular dependencies exist
  • Prerequisite technical tasks precede dependent stories
  • Foundation/infrastructure stories come before feature stories

Greenfield Project Specifics

  • Initial project setup and configuration stories exist
  • If using architecture.md: First story is starter template initialization command
  • Development environment setup is documented
  • CI/CD pipeline stories are included early in sequence
  • Database/storage initialization stories are properly placed
  • Authentication/authorization stories precede protected features

Risk and Gap Assessment

Critical Gaps

  • No core PRD requirements lack story coverage
  • No architectural decisions lack implementation stories
  • All integration points have implementation plans
  • Error handling strategy is defined and implemented
  • Security concerns are all addressed

Technical Risks

  • No conflicting technical approaches between stories
  • Technology choices are consistent across all documents
  • Performance requirements are achievable with chosen architecture
  • Scalability concerns are addressed if applicable
  • Third-party dependencies are identified with fallback plans

UX and Special Concerns (if applicable)

UX Coverage

  • UX requirements are documented in PRD
  • UX implementation tasks exist in relevant stories
  • Accessibility requirements have story coverage
  • Responsive design requirements are addressed
  • User flow continuity is maintained across stories

Special Considerations

  • Compliance requirements are fully addressed
  • Internationalization needs are covered if required
  • Performance benchmarks are defined and measurable
  • Monitoring and observability stories exist
  • Documentation stories are included where needed

Overall Readiness

  • Risks are identified with mitigation strategies
  • Success criteria are measurable and achievable

Assessment Completion

Report Quality

  • All findings are supported by specific examples
  • Recommendations are actionable and specific
  • Severity levels are appropriately assigned
  • Positive findings are highlighted
  • Next steps are clearly defined
