* 🐛 Fix component validation to check metadata file instead of settings.json
Resolves#291 - Validation errors after V4 upgrade
## Changes
- Fixed validation logic to check .superclaude-metadata.json instead of settings.json
- Standardized all component versions to 4.0.4 across the framework
- Fixed agent validation to check for correct filenames (architect vs specialist/engineer)
- Cleaned up metadata file structure for consistency
## Technical Details
The issue was caused by components registering in .superclaude-metadata.json but
validation checking settings.json for component registration. This mismatch caused
false validation errors even though components were properly installed.
## Testing
All components now validate successfully with the corrected logic.

## Critical Framework Accuracy Fixes
### Remove Non-Existent Error Codes
- **Deleted E001-E008 error code table** from commands.md
- These error codes never existed in SuperClaude Framework
- SuperClaude is instruction-based, not code-based, so cannot generate error codes
### Fix Non-Existent Commands
- **Fixed `SuperClaude status --mcp`** references in commands.md
- This command doesn't exist - replaced with actual working commands
- Updated validation steps to use real installation verification
### Correct Error Handling Documentation
- **Reframed fictional error classes** in technical-architecture.md
- Replaced `ComponentInstallationError`, `AgentCoordinationError` with conceptual issues
- Clarified that SuperClaude operates through instruction files, not runtime exceptions
- Converted exception examples to conceptual issue categories
## Why This Matters
SuperClaude Framework enhances Claude Code through behavioral instruction files (.md files).
Since it doesn't execute code (except Python installation), it cannot generate runtime
errors or error codes. This fix ensures documentation accurately reflects the framework's
instruction-based nature.
## Files Updated
- `User-Guide/commands.md`: Removed error code table and fixed command references
- `Developer-Guide/technical-architecture.md`: Converted fictional error handling to conceptual issues
## Result
Documentation now accurately represents SuperClaude as a behavioral enhancement framework
rather than incorrectly presenting it as a traditional error-generating application.

## Major Platform-Specific Improvements
### Windows Path Standardization
- **Fixed forward slash issues**: All Windows paths now use proper backslashes
- **Standardized path variables**: Consistent use of %USERPROFILE% instead of mixed %USERNAME%
- **Proper error path examples**: Fixed error messages to show correct Windows paths
### Shell Command Organization
- **Clear platform separation**: Added distinct Linux/macOS vs Windows sections
- **Proper language tags**: bash for Unix, cmd for Windows Command Prompt, powershell for PowerShell
- **Platform headers**: Clear "Linux/macOS" and "Windows" labels for all command blocks
### Cross-Platform Command Coverage
- **Diagnostic commands**: Both platforms now have equivalent diagnostic procedures
- **Recovery procedures**: Platform-specific backup/restore operations
- **Installation fixes**: Proper installation commands for both environments
## Files Updated
- `Reference/common-issues.md`: Platform-specific quick fixes with proper shell tags
- `Reference/troubleshooting.md`: Comprehensive cross-platform diagnostic procedures
## Technical Details
- Windows commands use proper path syntax (backslashes, %USERPROFILE%)
- Unix commands maintained with proper forward slash paths
- All code blocks properly tagged with language identifiers
- Platform-specific alternatives provided for all major operations
This resolves platform-specific issues identified in documentation review and ensures
consistent user experience across Windows, Linux, and macOS environments.
