Session 2026-04-14 22:00 — 23:30
Summary: Completed §5 (content inclusion simplification + SKILL.md combined frontmatter) and started §6 (knowledge restructuring). All §5 tasks done: simplified content.config.ts glob, added name/description to Starlight schema, removed SKILL.md wrapper generation from page generator, updated 18 SKILL.md files with combined frontmatter, updated sidebar entries, updated AI_Guide.md. For §6: renamed Prompts→Assets, moved FORGE.md to Configs/, created 4 consolidated root-level docs (Forge_Content_System, Forge_Agent_Architecture, Forge_Document_Structure, Forge_Infrastructure), updated all cross-references.

Session 2026-04-14 18:00 — 18:20

Session 2026-04-14 14:00 — 15:30
Summary: Erik reviewed all decision points on R1–R9. Research document updated with decisions, web research, and reworked sections. Spec document created with 5-phase implementation plan. Major new themes: (1) consolidate Knowledge/ into fewer, longer root-level docs; (2) rename Prompts→Assets, move FORGE.md there; (3) eliminate Lessons.md as separate concept; (4) Alpine→Debian-slim warrants separate project; (5) permission system is correct — fix agent behavior, not the model.
State changes: §2 complete (2a–2c checked). §3 complete (3a checked). §4–§7 remain. State reorganized to match Spec phases.
