  * Monorepo Support Validation Tests
  *
- * Verifies that:
+ * Architecture after deduplication:
+ * - Monorepo context logic lives ONLY in context-logic.js
+ * - workflow.xml (src) uses {{monorepo_context_logic}} placeholder → injected at install time
+ * - Individual source workflow files do NOT have inline checks (that's the deduplication!)
+ * - Only code-review/instructions.xml, dev-story/instructions.xml, create-story/instructions.xml
+ *   and advanced-elicitation/workflow.xml are XML workflows checked; XML workflows that go through
+ *   workflow.xml no longer need inline checks.
+ *
+ * Verifies:
  * 1. The set-project workflow is correctly registered.
- * 2. All core and BMM workflows contain the monorepo context logic.
+ * 2. No source workflow file has a stale inline "Monorepo Context Check" block.
+ * 3. Only the canonical SINGLE source (context-logic.js) defines the check.
+ * 4. set-project implementation still manages .current_project.
