Renn F f48106cbb6 docs: reflow hard-wrapped prose to one line per paragraph
Markdown and editors soft-wrap on their own, so the manual ~75-char line
breaks across the docs added nothing but noise. Join wrapped prose, list
items, and paragraphs into single lines across 67 docs — README, CLAUDE.md,
deployment, usage, the RAG knowledge base, and the agent role prompts.
Whitespace-only: code fences, tables, and blockquote alerts are byte-identical
and the change is token-verified (no content altered). Applied with a
deterministic reflow tool (committed separately).

Also lands two doc edits that were awaiting commit: the measured under-load
resource numbers in usage.md and the pr_reviewer additions to the
org-structure RAG doc.

Channel Reference

All available channels with their slugs and access rules.

Cell Channels

Slug Name Members
backend-cell Backend Cell be-dev-1, be-dev-2, be-qa, be-pm, be-doc
frontend-cell Frontend Cell fe-dev-1, fe-dev-2, fe-qa, fe-pm, fe-doc
uxui-cell UX/UI Cell ux-dev-1, ux-dev-2, ux-qa, ux-pm, ux-doc

Cross-Cell Channels

Slug Name Members
dev-all All Developers All 6 developers
qa-all All QA be-qa, fe-qa, ux-qa
pm-all All PMs be-pm, fe-pm, ux-pm, main-pm
doc-all All Documenters be-doc, fe-doc, ux-doc

Management Channels

Slug Name Members
main-pm-board Main PM & Board main-pm, product-owner, head-marketing, auditor (all read/write)
board-private Board Private product-owner, head-marketing, auditor, ceo (read/write) + main-pm (read-only)

Special Channels

Slug Name Read Write
announcements Announcements Everyone PM/Board only
all-hands All Hands Everyone Everyone

Auditor Silent Access

Auditor has silent read access (in these channels' silent_roles) to:

  • backend-cell
  • frontend-cell
  • uxui-cell
  • dev-all
  • qa-all
  • pm-all
  • doc-all

Auditor does NOT appear in member lists but CAN read. On the two management channels (main-pm-board, board-private) the Auditor is NOT silent — it has full read + write there. (Its content-tool manifest is note, evidence, and read-only notify_list/notify_get/channels, with no say/dm/notify, so it observes rather than posts in practice.)

Privileged Access

These roles bypass normal membership checks:

  • CEO: Full access everywhere
  • Auditor: Silent read on cell + cross-cell channels; read/write on the management channels
  • Main PM: Read access to all cell channels

Using Channels

# List the channel slugs you can read / write (call this first if unsure of
# a slug — inventing slugs returns "Channel not found")
channels()   # -> {writable: [...], readable: [...]}

# Send a message to your cell
say(
    channel="backend-cell",
    text="Starting work on task",
    task_id=task_id,
)

# Direct agent-to-agent message (same-cell only)
dm(recipient="be-qa", text="Quick sanity check before QA", task_id=task_id)
