'Immediately' is implied by HALT. No timing choice exists.

Logical flow: verify checklist → then declare next step

- Remove redundant "Do NOT proceed to the next step" (halt already means this)
- Change "item" to "criterion" (more precise terminology)

Correct terminology:
- "Metrics" implies quantitative measurement
- These are actually pass/fail criteria for step completion
- Section is self-validation checklist, not measurement data
Reframe as checkpoint before proceeding to next step:
- Add "Before proceeding to the next step, verify ALL of the following:"
- Change "If any metric" to "If any item"
- Explicit instruction: "Do NOT proceed to the next step" if checklist fails

FAILURE MODES section was just inverted SUCCESS METRICS. Not valuable.
Replaced with single catch-all statement: failure to meet any success metric = failure.
Let actual failure modes emerge from usage patterns, not speculation.

Step-01 focus is: load story + discover git changes. Nothing else.
Project context loading belongs in step-04 (Context-Aware Review) where it
provides audit rules, principles, and requirements for validating AC
implementation against project standards.
(See implementation-notes.md for detail)

Step-01 substeps 5:
- If no git changes detected: halt and ask user "Continue anyway?"
Allows AC audit on story File List even if no code changes in git
- Exclude git-ignored files from discrepancy comparison
Prevents false positives if story modified only ignored files

Step-01 substep-4:
- Use git diff -M to detect renamed/moved files
- Include deleted, renamed files in git_changed_files
- Adversarial reviewer needs to see deletions (e.g., critical code removed)
- Downstream steps will handle these appropriately (documented in implementation-notes)

Substep 3 (Extract File List):
- Removed repetitive wording
- Reference {story_content} variable instead of generic "story file"
- Add error handling: if Dev Agent Record/File List not found, set story_file_list = NO_FILE_LIST
- Consistent with NO_GIT pattern used elsewhere

Step 01 audit findings:
- Substep 3 was extracting items not needed by step-01 (ACs, tasks, changelog)
Trimmed to only extract story_file_list (needed for git comparison)
- Success/failure criteria now explicitly guard story_content completeness
since downstream steps depend on the full file content
- Removed "downstream" jargon in favor of "later steps"

Implementation notes for the workflow should be collected in a dedicated
implementation-notes.md file, not embedded in step files. This keeps each
step focused and defers editorial comments to a separate tracking document.

- Changed priority 1 from exact to resembles: handles format variations (1 2, 1.2, one-two, one thirty two)
- Explicitly prevents false matches: 1-33 does not match 1-32
- Updated priority 3-4 to use resembles instead of contains: supports typos and TTS errors (paiment, passwd)
- Added examples for number variations and compound spoken formats
- Tested with agent validation: handles typos, format variations, misspellings correctly
- Fixed variable naming convention: backticks for names, curlies only for value substitution
- Rewrote Identify Story section with explicit two-path algorithm (file path vs sprint_status search)
- Added verification step for files not in sprint_status with user confirmation flow
- Clarified matching priority order: exact key > full ID > partial > name > description
- Made loopback instructions consistent and explicit (return to user prompt)
- Improved git_discrepancies description from vague "differences" to concrete "mismatches"
- Tested with 30+ test cases and fresh agent review - algorithm is clear and executable
- Add web_bundle: false to frontmatter (workflow needs file access)
- Change "Load and execute" to "Read and follow" (clearer for LLMs)

* fix(docs): align sidebar with actual docs structure and fix image path
Sidebar referenced non-existent paths (modules/bmm/, getting-started/, etc.)
while actual docs live in different locations (modules/bmm-bmad-method/,
bmad-core-concepts/, etc.). Updated sidebar to match reality so Docusaurus
can build successfully.
Also fixed broken image reference in workflows-guide.md that used an
incorrect relative path.
