Add an optional also_consider parameter that allows callers to pass
domain-specific areas to keep in mind during review. This gently nudges
the reviewer toward specific concerns without overriding normal analysis.
Testing showed:
- Specific items steer strongly (questions get directly answered)
- Domain-focused items shift the lens (e.g., security focus = deeper security findings)
- Vague items have minimal effect (similar to baseline)
- Single items nudge without dominating
- Contradictory items handled gracefully
Includes test cases with sample content and 10 configurations to validate
the parameter behavior across different use cases.

The correct-course workflow restructures epics but did not update
sprint-status.yaml, leaving tracking out of sync. Added check-item 6.4
to Section 6 (after user approval) to update sprint-status.yaml when
epics are added, removed, renumbered, or stories are modified.

* feat: add editorial review tasks for structure and prose
Add two complementary editorial review tasks:
- editorial-review-structure.xml: Structural editor that proposes cuts,
reorganization, and simplification. Includes 5 document archetype models
(Tutorial, Reference, Explanation, Prompt, Strategic) for targeted evaluation.
- editorial-review-prose.xml: Clinical copy-editor for prose improvements
using Microsoft Writing Style Guide as baseline.
Both tasks support humans and llm target audiences with different principles.
* fix: add content-sacrosanct guardrail to editorial review tasks
Both editorial review tasks (prose and structure) were missing the key
constraint that reviewers should never challenge the ideas/knowledge
themselves—only how clearly they are communicated. This restores the
original design intent.

* fix: align reader_type parameter naming across editorial tasks
Prose task was using 'target_audience' for the humans/llm optimization
flag while structure task correctly separates 'target_audience' (who
reads) from 'reader_type' (optimization mode). Aligns to reader_type.

Step 4 was missing a structured menu at the spec review checkpoint.
This caused agents to skip past the approval step without waiting for
explicit user confirmation.
Added:
- Review menu with [y] Approve, [c] Changes, [q] Questions, [a] Advanced Elicitation, [p] Party Mode
- Explicit HALT instruction
- Menu handling section
This aligns step 4 with the menu-driven pattern used in steps 1-3.
Fixes#1304
Also fixes pre-existing prettier issue in src/modules/cis/module.yaml.

* fix(build): use file glob instead of sidebar parsing for llms-full.txt
Replace brittle sidebar.js regex parsing with recursive file glob.
The old approach captured non-file strings like 'autogenerated' and
category labels, resulting in only 5 files being processed.
Now correctly processes all 86+ markdown files (~95k tokens).
