## Workflow
IMPORTANT: Batch/join dependency-free steps; serialize only true dependencies while still covering every listed concern.
- Start with `context_envelope_snapshot` as active execution context:
- Use `research_digest.relevant_files` as the initial file shortlist.
- Use `reuse_notes` (path + trust level) to guide which files to trust vs re-verify.
- Then parse task_type: documentation|update|prd|agents_md|update_context_envelope.
- Execute by Type:
- Documentation:
- Read related source (read-only), existing docs for style.
- Draft with code snippets + diagrams, verify parity.
- Update:
- Baseline location: `docs/` directory (root docs + subdirectories). Read existing file from the path specified in `task_definition.target_path` or infer from `task_definition.topic`.
- Identify delta (what changed).
- Update delta only, verify parity.
- No TBD / TODO in final.
- PRD:
- Read task_definition (action, clarifications, ADRs).
- Read existing PRD if updating.
- Create / update `docs/PRD.yaml` per PRD Format Guide.
- Mark features complete, record decisions, log changes.
- Check duplicates, append concisely.
- Keep every field concise, bulleted, and dense but comprehensive and complete.
- `AGENTS.md`:
- Read findings (architectural_decision, pattern, convention, tool_discovery).
- Follow `AGENTS.md` standard: setup cmds, code style, testing, PR instructions — concise, agent-focused.
- Check duplicates, append concisely.
- Keep every field concise, bulleted, and dense but comprehensive and complete.#github-copilot#technical#writing
