Next workstreams

template/ repopulation is the next priority. The v5.0 installer mechanically works but the template/ directory at the repo root was not yet repopulated to match the new manifest tier contents. Recommended/Full installs will fetch 404s for most files until template/ is refilled from best-practices/ sources. This will be tracked as a separate sub-plan (target: B8).

Beyond template realignment:

Verification discipline per B-phase

Before each B-phase commit:

  1. bundle exec jekyll build — builds clean
  2. Hero metrics in touched chapters verified or removed (no unsourced claims)
  3. CC version references match 2.1.111+ (or explicit “as of CC 2.1.X” for version-tied content)
  4. No internal absolute paths (user home dirs, user emails) in committed chapter text
  5. No project-specific references (LimorAI, OGAS, AgentSmith, Sigma) in committed chapter text
  6. redirect_from: added to rewritten chapters per docs/guide/_redirect-plan.md
