Markdown Linting Warnings - Expected
- Code blocks without language specification
- Trailing punctuation in headings
- These match the original PR exactly
-
XML Tags in Instructions - Expected
- BMAD workflows use XML-style tags for instructions
- This is standard BMAD format
- Linter reports as HTML, but it's intentional markup
-
Pre-existing Lint Errors - Not Related to PR #784
- 5 pre-existing errors in
.bmad-*and.github/files - Not introduced by this PR
