* docs: radical reduction of documentation scope for v6 beta
Archive and basement unreviewed content to ship a focused, minimal doc set.
Changes:
- Archive stale how-to workflow guides (will rewrite for v6)
- Archive outdated explanation and reference content
- Move unreviewed content to basement for later review
- Reorganize TEA docs into dedicated /tea/ section
- Add workflow-map visual reference page
- Simplify getting-started tutorial and sidebar navigation
- Add explanation pages: brainstorming, adversarial-review, party-mode,
quick-flow, advanced-elicitation
- Fix base URL handling for subdirectory deployments (GitHub Pages forks)
The goal is a minimal, accurate doc set for beta rather than
comprehensive but potentially misleading content.

* Add interactive workflow guide page
Replace confusing static SVG workflow diagram with an interactive
guide at /workflow-guide. Users select their track (Quick Flow,
BMad Method, Enterprise) and see relevant phases, agents, commands,
and outputs. Update link validator to recognize custom page routes.

* Add visual dev loop indicator to workflow guide
Wrap create-story, dev-story, and code-review in a dashed border
group with a "Repeat for each story" label to clearly communicate
the iterative development cycle in Phase 4.

* Simplify workflow guide to vertical slash command flow
Replace expandable phase cards with a clean vertical flow showing
slash commands as the primary element, with down arrows between
steps, agent badges, required/optional status, and concise
descriptions. Add prominent /bmad-help callout and note that
agent loading is optional.

* Simplify README Quick Start with numbered command flows
Replace wordy paragraphs and track table with two clear numbered
paths (Quick Flow: 3 commands, BMad Method: 6 steps) and a
prominent /bmad-help callout as the primary guidance mechanism.

* Add Party Mode to README, /bmad-help to getting-started
Add Party Mode bullet to Why BMad section, note about agent-based
usage as an alternative to direct workflows, and a /bmad-help
mention in the getting-started tutorial after installation.

* Fix workflow-guide links to use relative paths
The /workflow-guide absolute path breaks with non-root base paths.
Use relative paths since workflow-guide is a custom Astro page
outside the docs collection. Docs-to-docs links keep the /docs/
pattern which the rehype plugin handles.

* Revert workflow-guide links to absolute paths
Use /workflow-guide to match the /docs/ convention used throughout.
Works correctly on the production site where base path is /.

* 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).

* fix(seo): use absolute URLs in AI meta tags for agent discoverability
AI web-browsing agents couldn't follow relative paths in meta tags due to
URL security restrictions. Changed llms-full.txt and llms.txt meta tag
URLs from relative (baseUrl) to absolute (urlParts.origin + baseUrl).

* fix(css): use fixed width layout to prevent content shifting
Apply React Native docs approach: set both width and max-width at
largest breakpoint (1400px) so content area maintains consistent
size regardless of content length. Switches to fluid 100% below
1416px breakpoint.
