- create-architecture/workflow.md: fix installed_path dir name
from 'architecture' to 'create-architecture'
- create-story/checklist.md: fix 2 refs from validate-workflow.xml
to workflow.xml (file does not exist with validate- prefix)
- package.json: add --strict to validate:refs so broken references
fail CI instead of logging warnings and exiting 0

* fix: replace bare _bmad/ backtick refs with {project-root}/_bmad/
Closes#1718 (partial — bare _bmad/ category only)
* fix: replace relative step refs with {project-root}/_bmad/ paths
Converts all ./step-XX.md, step-XX.md, and steps/step-XX.md
backtick references in new-format workflow and step files to
full {project-root}/_bmad/... paths.
Refs #1718
* fix: correct create-architecture installed path and remaining relative refs
- replace create-architecture with architecture in all step path refs
to match workflow.md installed_path definition
- convert ../data/ relative refs in create-prd step-05/06/11 frontmatter
- fix stale nextStepFile example in create-prd step-01b-continue
- fix bare step-01-init.md ref in create-architecture step-01b-continue
Fixes#1718
* fix: convert remaining relative data refs and fix stale examples in continue steps
* fix: inline quick-spec step navigation paths, remove frontmatter tokens
Replace {nextStepFile} and {skipToStepFile} frontmatter tokens with
explicit {project-root}/_bmad/ paths in all quick-spec step files.
These are LLM prompts, not config files -- inline paths are clearer
and carry semantic information without indirection. Also standardize
wording from "Load" to "Read fully and follow:" for consistency.
Also add .junie/ to .prettierignore to fix unrelated CI noise.

The 4-backtick markdown fence closed prematurely at line 235,
orphaning template content and causing a stray 3-backtick fence
to swallow sections 9-13 into an unclosed code block.
Update all references to the help task file from the old path
`_bmad/core/tasks/bmad-help.md` to the new path `_bmad/core/tasks/help.md`.
Affected files:
- 7 workflow step files across multiple workflows
- 1 IDE tool command generator (updated comments)
Adds two operational technology domains to domain-complexity.csv
in both PRD and architecture workflows. Addresses the gap in OT
domain coverage for physical process control and building systems.
process_control: industrial automation, SCADA, PLC, DCS, I&C,
P&ID — covers power/utilities, water treatment, oil & gas,
manufacturing, chemical, pharmaceutical, food & beverage, mining,
and other sectors where software controls physical processes.
Key concerns include functional safety, process safety and hazard
analysis, environmental compliance, OT cybersecurity, and plant
reliability/maintainability. Requires engineering_authority PRD
section for PE/EOR credential requirements.
building_automation: BAS/BMS, HVAC, fire alarm, fire protection,
life safety, elevators, lighting, access control, commissioning —
covers commercial and institutional building systems. Key concerns
include life safety codes, multi-trade coordination, commissioning,
and indoor environmental quality.
Both domains are high complexity, include engineering_authority
as a required PRD section, and follow established entry patterns.
Fixes#1240

Replace ambiguous "execute" terminology with explicit "Read fully and follow:"
phrasing across all workflow files to prevent LLM goal-seeking behavior where
models attempt to "achieve the end result" rather than following step-by-step
instructions verbatim.
Changes:
- Update 5 handler templates with canonical phrasing
- Replace ~150 INSTRUCTIONAL patterns across 87 workflow files
- Add "[Workflow] complete." prefix to 7 workflow endpoints
- Preserve BEHAVIORAL/STRUCTURAL patterns (agent descriptions, XML tags)
- Fix gitignore and markdownlint to ignore all node_modules directories
Closes#1372
