Merge 698ead6776 into 5fe54de24e

* 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
