* fix: correct malformed XML syntax and remove hardcoded path
- Fix missing opening quote in activation-steps.txt: `n={HELP_STEP}"` → `n="{HELP_STEP}"`
- Remove spurious hyphen: `-Let` → `Let`
- Replace hardcoded `/Users/brianmadison/...` path with relative path
Fixes#1435
* fix: add missing HELP_STEP placeholder replacement
The activation-steps.txt template includes a {HELP_STEP} placeholder,
but activation-builder.js never calculated or replaced it. This caused
the literal string "{HELP_STEP}" to appear in compiled agent files.
Added helpStep calculation between menuStep and haltStep, and adjusted
subsequent step numbers accordingly.
Fixes#1441
* Update src/bmm/workflows/2-plan-workflows/create-prd/validation-report-prd-workflow.md

Add new utils.sh module with cross-platform support and reliability improvements:
- M1: execute_with_retry() with exponential backoff for transient failures
- M2: validate_yq() to detect Go vs Python yq versions with fallback
- M3: check_phase_completion_fuzzy() for case-insensitive signal detection
- M4: sed_inplace() for cross-platform sed (macOS/Linux compatibility)
- M5: check_branch_protection() to prevent commits to main/master
Update json-output.sh with enhanced JSON extraction using awk for multi-block
handling, normalized status comparison, and fuzzy matching fallback.
Update epic-execute.sh to source utils.sh and use cross-platform sed functions.

Implements the final two improvements from bmad_improvements_v2.md:
## Structured JSON Output (Improvement #6)
- New module: scripts/epic-execute-lib/json-output.sh
- Functions for extracting and parsing JSON from Claude output
- Unified check_phase_completion() with JSON + text fallback
- Updated prompts to request JSON result blocks
- Added --legacy-output flag to disable JSON parsing
## Test-First Flow (Improvement #7)
- New module: scripts/epic-execute-lib/tdd-flow.sh
- execute_test_spec_phase() - Generates BDD specs from acceptance criteria
- execute_test_impl_phase() - Creates failing tests from specs
- execute_test_verification_phase() - Verifies tests fail correctly
- Integration with dev phase for TDD context
- Added --skip-tdd, --skip-test-spec, --skip-test-impl flags
All 7 improvements from the analysis are now complete.

The script marks stories with lowercase "done" but was checking for
capitalized "Done", causing --skip-done to never match completed stories.

enabling the interactive workflow diagram to be embedded in markdown pages.
* 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.
